Illustration — the Literal language

We draw simplifications of what machines do. Technical elevations, cross-sections, schematic plans, ticker panels, explainers of LBNs. Simple lines. Monospace labels. Never a smiling laptop.

Do · don't

##### DO

*   _Draw what the machine does._ Plan views, cross-sections, waveforms, schematic networks. Things that could exist on engineering paper.
*   _One-bit line with monospace labels._ Keep strokes honest — 1.2 to 1.6 px, no anti-aliased hero lines.
*   _Let the grid show._ Faint dot- or line-grids under diagrams reinforce the “technical drawing” read.
*   _Use orange as a single highlight._ One path, one node, one stat per illustration — never a full colour palette.

##### DON'T

*   _Reuse the retired blue-and-navy set._ Battery-use, disk-size, benchmark-cards and their siblings are gone. Don’t resurrect them, even at thumbnail scale.
*   _No cartoon metaphors._ No smiling laptops, no cute robots, no 3-D cylinders labelled “AI”.
*   _No gradients, no drop shadows, no glow._ If it wouldn’t print in two inks, it doesn’t belong here.
*   _No generic stock vectors._ Every illustration gets drawn for its subject.
