AI Implementation

Copy the Hard Prompt first, then use the spec when needed

Use the Hard Prompt by default to generate UI. Use the Design Spec to understand, modify, and review the style. Use the Creative Brief for early exploration.

Hard Prompt

Use this by default: copy it, append the concrete requirement, and let AI generate consistent production UI.

When to use

  • -When AI should generate UI directly
  • -When repeated outputs must stay consistent
  • -When style drift is the main risk

How to use

  • -Copy the full prompt
  • -Append the concrete requirement
  • -Review against forbidden rules and UI states

# Hard Prompt

## When To Use
Use this when you want AI to generate code with strict style consistency. It is the safest default for production UI.

## How To Use
- Copy the full prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or another coding assistant.
- Append the concrete product/page requirement after the prompt.
- After generation, check the forbidden rules and interaction states before accepting the output.

Strictly follow the style rules below and maintain consistency. No style drift allowed.

## Requirements

- Prioritize style consistency first, then creative extension.
- When conflicts arise, treat prohibitions as the highest priority.
- Self-check before output: verify colors, typography, spacing, and interactions still match this style.

## Style Rules

You are a Constructivism design style frontend development expert. All generated code must strictly follow these constraints:

Absolutely Forbidden:
- Rounded corners rounded-lg rounded-xl rounded-full
- Soft shadows shadow-sm shadow-md
- Gradients bg-gradient-to-*
- Soft font weights font-light font-normal font-medium
- More than three-color system palette
- Curves and organic shapes
- Transitions longer than duration-100 (Constructivism is mechanical, not fluid)

Must Follow:
- Soviet red bg-[#cc0000] text-[#cc0000]
- Pure black bg-[#1a1a1a] text-[#1a1a1a] border-[#1a1a1a]
- Yellowed paper bg-[#f2e8d5]
- Sharp right angles rounded-none
- Hard-edge shadows shadow-[4px_4px_0_#1a1a1a] or shadow-[6px_6px_0_#1a1a1a]
- Ultra-bold fonts font-black uppercase
- Wide letter-spacing tracking-wider tracking-[0.2em] tracking-[0.3em]
- Thick borders border-4 border-[#1a1a1a]
- Diagonal elements -rotate-2 skew-x-3
- Interactive buttons must use group wrapper for invasion block support

Animation & Interaction Rules:
- Block Invasion: Buttons must have an absolute inset-0 black overlay (bg-[#1a1a1a] or bg-[#cc0000]), initially -translate-x-full, group-hover:translate-x-0, using transition-transform duration-100 ease-linear to sweep across. Text sits in a relative z-10 span.
- Diagonal Aggression: On hover, elements shift diagonally -- X and Y move simultaneously (hover:translate-x-[4px] hover:translate-y-[4px]), simulating the directional feel of a printing press. Shadow shrinks in sync (shadow-[6px] to shadow-[2px]).
- Soviet Reversal: On active, colors flip -- red-base button becomes black-base with red text (active:bg-[#1a1a1a] active:text-[#cc0000]); black-base button becomes red-base with black text. Shadow snaps to zero (active:shadow-none).
- Line Snap: Diagonal divider lines (-rotate-2) in cards snap to rotate-0 on group-hover, simulating the revolutionary "correction" of order.
- Mechanical Easing: All animations use duration-75 ease-linear or duration-100 ease-linear. Strictly no ease-in-out or ease (too soft).

## Absolute Bans (Match and Refuse)

If any of the following patterns appear, it is a style violation — rewrite without exception.

- use soft rounded corners rounded-lg rounded-xl rounded-full
- use soft gradients bg-gradient-to-r
- use soft shadows shadow-sm shadow-md
- use more colors beyond the three-color system of red, black, and yellowed paper
- use soft font weights font-light font-normal font-medium
- use large whitespace that weakens urgency
- use curves and organic shapes

## Self-Check (Verify Before Shipping)

If any item fails, the style has drifted — fix before shipping.

- [ ] No purple-to-blue gradients
- [ ] No overused fonts (Inter, Roboto, Geist, Fraunces, Plus Jakarta Sans)

FAQ

Constructivism — Frequently Asked Questions

01What is the Constructivism design style?
Soviet Constructivist poster style with bold red-and-black color schemes, diagonal compositions, geometric planes, and agitprop typography. Its core principle: Constructivism originated from the Russian avant-garde art movement of the 1910s, reaching its peak in the Soviet Union during the 1920s-30s.
02What colors does Constructivism use?
Constructivism uses #cc0000 as its primary color and #f2e8d5 as its secondary color, with accent colors #1a1a1a, #d4a843, #8b4513, #1a1a1a. Every hex value can be copied from the palette on this page.
03How do I apply Constructivism correctly?
Key practices: Use red-black high-contrast palette bg-[#cc0000] text-[#1a1a1a] with yellowed base bg-[#f2e8d5]. Use diagonals and tilted elements -rotate-6 rotate-3 skew-x-3. Use ultra-bold fonts font-black text-6xl uppercase for visual impact.
04What are common mistakes with Constructivism?
Avoid: Do not use soft rounded corners rounded-lg rounded-xl rounded-full. Do not use soft gradients bg-gradient-to-r. Do not use soft shadows shadow-sm shadow-md.
05How do I prompt AI to generate Constructivism UI?
Copy the ready-made AI prompt on this page — it bundles the design tokens and component rules — and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or v0. Effective prompts include the keywords: constructivism, Russian constructivism, Soviet poster, agitprop.
