Editorial Tri-Tone

Editorial Tri-Tone

Three-color editorial system: dusty pink, mustard cream, and deep burgundy, set in Bricolage + Instrument Serif.

A single self-contained HTML deck — typography, palette, decorative system, and slide vocabulary are all tuned together. Mixing layouts across templates breaks the system; stay inside this one.

At a glance

Best for

Anything that should feel like a fashion-magazine spread: editorial pitches, fashion brand decks, lifestyle media, art direction reviews. Equally good for any deck — including tech, research, or business — that wants tri-tone discipline and serif/sans contrast instead of the usual neutrals.

Avoid for

Decks that need to read as soft or comforting — the burgundy/pink/cream tri-tone is intentionally high-contrast and styled.

Workflow

1. Clone example.html AND the assets/ folder into the user's workspace. This template ships an assets/deck-stage.js runtime (keyboard navigation, stage rendering); the HTML references it as assets/deck-stage.js, so the file must sit next to the cloned HTML or that path will 404 in the generated artifact and navigation will silently break. Inlining the JS into a single <script> block in the HTML is an acceptable alternative when a single self-contained file is preferred.
2. Replace placeholder content with the user's real headlines, body copy, numbers, names, dates, and section labels. Match existing dimensions when swapping image placeholders.
3. Preserve the design system. Never substitute fonts, recolor the palette, restructure the layout grid, or strip decorative elements (corner brackets, paper grain, geometric shapes, illustrated SVGs). They are part of the identity.
4. Adjust deck length by duplicating layouts. If the user has more content
