Do & don’t

### Do

- Pair wordmark with tagline in marketing lockups.
- Use terracotta at 70% opacity over canvas.
- Keep canvas #F5F3F0 on marketing surfaces.
- Use “deduce” for the Motif mechanic.

### Don’t

- Substitute Playfair, DM Sans, or any non-Baskerville face.
- Condense, italicize, or add effects to the wordmark.
- Use cream #FAF5E8 as marketing canvas (it reads yellow).
- Say “AI”, “generated”, or “algorithmic” in public copy.
