Use shared craft language rather than reproducing motifs from a specific closed cultural tradition.

Anchor compositions with one stylized natural emblem, then surround it with decorative bands and supporting motifs.
Rendering Rule
Describe form through outline, pattern, and a second flat tone; use no modeled shading or cast shadows.
