Pattern Philosophy¶

SBK patterns must: - Reinforce, never distract from content - Feel intentional not decorative for decoration's sake - Work at multiple scales from subtle texture to bold accent - Remain timeless avoiding trendy pattern styles - Respect active variant visual language and mood

Pattern Anti-Patterns¶

Never generate patterns that: - Overwhelm or compete with content - Feel arbitrary or without purpose - Are too literal (circuits, binary, code) - Date themselves with trendy styles - Clash with other brand elements - Violate active variant's anti-patterns list
