MEDIUM AND STYLE
Cutaway cross-section illustration of a building seen from the front, every room open and furnished, warm detailed interior illustration with clean outlines. Give every room its own dominant colour and wallpaper pattern so the grid of rooms becomes natural sorting zones; activities in every room.
SCENE
A lighthouse keeper's house rests on a rocky outcrop, its cross-section revealing multiple rooms filled with warmth and activity. At the bottom, the kitchen bustles with copper pots hanging from a rack and a crackling fireplace. Above, a cozy library lined with bookshelves and an open book on a reading chair captivates. Climbing further, a workshop is abuzz with tools and half-finished wooden models. The topmost lamp room glows, guiding boats afloat in the surrounding autumnal sea. Seals bask on rocks while seabirds circle overhead, completing the scene. Focal point: The glowing lamp room at the top of the lighthouse, centered in the upper part of the frame. Foreground: The rocky island base with seals lounging and ocean waves rolling lightly against the rocks, forming the entry level to the lighthouse. Midground: The interior of the lighthouse, featuring the kitchen at the bottom, followed by the library, then the workshop, each room furnished and filled with activity. Background: The sky is dotted with seabirds and a few fluffy clouds, and small boats are visible on the distant horizon, adding character to the top edges. Lighting: Sunlight pours in from the left, casting long, warm shadows throughout the house. Inside, each room is illuminated with a soft, inviting glow from lamps and the warmth of the fireplace. Colour zones: aged copper #d0a570 for kitchen pots and accessories; moss green #a1b665 for workshop wooden furniture; honey yellow #f4c36f for lamp room; brick red #b73e48 for library walls and books; slate blue #50717b for ocean and distant sky; stone grey #b5a395 for island rocks. Small hidden details spread across different areas: A cat sleeping on the reading chair; A miniature boat in the workshop; An open book on a table; A ladder leading to the lamp room; A seal juggling a ball.
FORMAT
Portrait format 3:4 (1536×2048). Vertical composition: foreground, midground and background stacked from bottom to top, with interest reaching the top edge.
PUZZLE CALIBRATION
The picture will be cut into about 108 pieces (9 columns by 12 rows). A clear focal point surrounded by many secondary details; medium-sized colour regions, each with its own texture; a recognisable object or pattern fragment in every piece-sized area.
PUZZLE CRAFT (house rules)
Original artwork made to be printed and cut into a premium jigsaw puzzle. Edge-to-edge composition: the scene fills the whole canvas, corners and borders included, with real content in all four corners because players start with the edge pieces. Even distribution of interest: there is something to recognise in every area of the picture, with no large empty or uniform zone (no plain sky, flat water, blank wall or smooth gradient covering more than a small part of the image). Clear colour zoning: five to eight distinct colour families laid out in readable regions, so players can sort pieces into piles by colour. Inside each colour region, varied textures and small details (brick, foliage, fabric, ripples, patterns) so two pieces of the same colour still look different. Full tonal range with strong local contrast between neighbouring shapes; deep shadows keep detail and highlights never blow out. Everything in sharp focus from the foreground to the horizon: no depth-of-field blur, no bokeh, no motion blur, no haze or fog veils. Rich, saturated but print-safe colour, balanced warm and cool tones, even lighting that keeps every area legible. Layered depth: a detailed foreground, a lively midground and a structured background stacked through the frame. Small hidden stories and discoverable details spread across the canvas, rewarding a close look.
AVOID
text, letters, numbers, captions, signature, watermark, logo, brand names, frame or border, vignette, puzzle-piece outlines drawn on the image, collage or split panels, large empty areas, blur or bokeh, heavy film grain or noise, distorted anatomy, real people or celebrities, trademarked characters.
