We'll use the same artwork across design systems.

Using the same local assets makes differences in layout, pacing, and tone easier to judge.

Every crop comes from the local archive, so the comparison stays tied to the same body of work.

How to use this page.

Open the previews, read DESIGN.md, then choose the system that should be developed.
