A composition combining distinct media such as photography, drawing, and cut paper. The contrast between the materials should contribute to the idea.

## Visual family
Art & image-making. Editorial family: shared visual vocabulary, not a claim of common origin.

## Visual cues
- Multiple media
- Visible layering
- Material contrast

## Build it
1. Choose one dominant medium.
2. Use the second to annotate or contrast.
3. Repeat a small set of alignment points.

## Example
A project case study combining process photographs with drawn annotations.

## Typography
Choose one dependable reading family. A second display voice should correspond to a distinct layer or speaker.

## Practical consequences
- Starting projects: Portfolio, Publication. These are suggestions, not restrictions.
- Reading/layout: spacious; bold visual emphasis.
- Asset work: Prepare a small set of photographs and drawn or cut-paper overlays.
- Complexity: medium. Allow time for a coherent decorative or image layer and responsive checks.

## Limits
Adding texture without purpose or letting overlaps cover text and links.

## Reading the collected reference board
Compare the photographs, cutout shapes, and drawn additions. The strongest combinations give the added layer a specific role rather than simply adding texture.

## Context
Contemporary screen interpretation. The recipe is a modern web adaptation.
No single inventor or exact founding date is asserted for this interpretation.
