+# minimalism
+
+Remove excess decoration, keep only the essential. Maximum impact through restraint.

+## Color Palette

+- Primary: Black and white, or single accent color
+- Background: Pure white or off-white (#FAFAFA)
+- Accents: One color only, used sparingly
+
+## Visual Elements

+- Single focal element per composition
+- Extreme whitespace—negative space is the design
+- No decorative borders, patterns, or textures
+- Simple geometric shapes if any illustration needed
+- Every element must justify its presence
+
+## Typography
+
+- Thin or light weight sans-serif
+- Large size differentials between hierarchy levels
+- Generous letter-spacing on headings
+- Minimal text—only what is essential
+
+## Best For
