Document Philosophy¶
SBK documents must: - Command respect through professional presentation - Be scannable with clear visual hierarchy - Reinforce brand without overwhelming content - Support the message rather than distract from it - Align with variant selected for document type
Document Anti-Patterns¶
Never create documents that: - Are cluttered or visually overwhelming - Use inconsistent formatting or fonts - Feel template-generic or amateurish - Bury important information - Are hard to navigate or scan - Mismatch variant to document purpose
