Description
Turn an ordinary photo into the small imprint beside a museum collection number. The upper half shows the original image; the lower half keeps only an outline, a set of structural relationships, and one memorable detail, rendered in fine-pen engraved lines on warm ivory or parchment tones, with an optional halo or axis. Use warm ivory, parchment, ochre, dark brown, and ink black as the main colors. Cobalt blue, vermilion, or teal should appear only as very limited research markings. Let the lettering feel like an index from an old book or a museum label. Avoid pages filled with handwriting, commercial icons, tech interfaces, cartoons, and complete photorealism.

ImageOld Sigil | xiaoxiaodong P290
Ideal for turning an ordinary photo into a warm little totem. The top half shows the original image; the bottom half uses an uneven, slightly shaky hand-drawn outline with limited flat color, along with the imperfections of old printing: ink bleed, misregistration, and visible paper fibers. The symbol is small, with generous blank space preserving a touch of loneliness, while the text resembles a handwritten collection number. The palette is a limited, warm vintage selection: faded orange, washed blue, olive green, warm off-white, ink black, and soft red. Avoid full illustrations, commercial logos, standard mascots, smooth vector graphics, and 3D.
Pixel Specimen | xiaoxiaodong
Ideal for turning an ordinary photo into a small signal on an archival page. The original image appears on top; below it, the subject is distilled into an abstract pixel badge with a hard grid, minimal tonal levels, and almost no dithering—like a pixel specimen preserved in a collection book. The badge is very small, set in generous warm-white or light-gray negative space, with an optional tiny monospaced number beside it. The overall design uses low-saturation industrial neutrals, retaining only one sparse signal color derived from the original image. Avoid complete scenes, pixel illustrations, game interfaces, icon collections, nine-grid templates, noisy retro effects, and cheap tech aesthetics.
ImagePoetic Mark | xiaoxiaodong P293
Ideal for turning an ordinary photo into a story-rich handmade imprint. The original photo occupies the upper half; the lower half features a simple, rounded, slightly clumsy, not-perfectly-symmetrical symbol of the original object. It may include a tiny expression or small gesture, but remains the original object rather than becoming a new mascot. Retain paper grain, gouache texture, color bleeding, and Riso misregistration. Place a single symbol in generous white space, with lettering that feels like a mark from an independent zine. Use a warm, limited palette such as warm ivory, misty blue, sage green, soft coral, cream yellow, and warm brown. Avoid realism, smooth vector graphics, 3D, template icons, and excessive cuteness.
