Visual System Notes — Iris

Palette lock: Every asset anchors to the same near-black (#0a0a0f–#111118) field with electric blue as the primary energy color and amber as the spark accent. No asset breaks this contract.
Lighting grammar: All lit elements use directional top-left or backlit sources — creating a consistent sense that light comes from one brand "sun." The team portrait is the only exception by design (natural window light matches the authentic-moment brief).
Form motif: The geometric crystal/flint-stone shape threads from the hero through to the social tile and email header, anchoring brand recognition across formats.
Type discipline: Clean modern sans-serif white or near-white, used sparingly. Never decorative, always functional.
Format fidelity: Six formats, four aspect ratios — each composition was re-balanced for its container, not cropped from a master.

Takeaway: A cohesive visual brand system is not about repeating the same image — it is about maintaining palette, lighting grammar, and form vocabulary so that every touchpoint, from a 21:9 email banner to a 1:1 social tile, feels unmistakably Flint.
