Bold Typography IG Post Skill

Use this skill when an Instagram post should feel loud, direct, edgy, and typography-led.

Style Intent

Create bold IG posts with huge typography and brutalist composition.

• Format: 4:5 Instagram post.
• Main visual: headline typography dominating the canvas.
• Composition: high contrast, dynamic, asymmetric or aggressively centered.
• Style: modern brutalist, edgy, impactful.
• Decoration: minimal; text and spacing do the work.
• Feeling: bold, urgent, cultural, graphic, and memorable.

Required Palette

• Impact Red Orange: #CF2B10
• Linen Beige: #ECD1B4
• Deep Ink: #110B09
• Warm Gray: #D5D1C6
• Deep Red: #99121A

Utility tones:

• Dark Brown: #2A1711
• Muted Sand: #BFAE9D

Non-Negotiables

• Use 4:5 aspect ratio unless the user explicitly asks otherwise.
• Make typography the main visual object.
• Use huge headline text.
• Keep contrast high.
• Use red-orange and deep red as sharp impact accents, not soft decorative colors.
• Keep decoration minimal.
• Avoid soft gradients, luxury styling, pastel palettes, delicate illustrations, lifestyle texture, and cute stickers.
• Prioritize readability on mobile even when the layout is aggressive.
