A composition that organizes photographs, notes, and keepsakes as a personal record. It becomes useful when the layering helps connect an image to its story.

## Visual family
Craft, place & natural materials. Editorial family: shared visual vocabulary, not a claim of common origin.

## Visual cues
- Paper layering
- Personal annotation
- Chronological fragments

## Build it
1. Pair every image with nearby context.
2. Limit rotation to decoration.
3. Keep the reading order explicit.

## Example
A yearly journal with dated photo groups and short notes beside each event.

## Typography
Use a readable serif for the story and a limited handwriting accent for personal notes. Dates should be easy to scan.

## Practical consequences
- Starting projects: Portfolio, Publication. These are suggestions, not restrictions.
- Reading/layout: spacious; quiet visual emphasis.
- Asset work: Personal photographs and nearby captions give the layers a reason to exist.
- Complexity: medium. Allow time for a coherent decorative or image layer and responsive checks.

## Limits
Scattering captions away from photos or turning chronology into a puzzle.

## Reading the collected reference board
The board layers cutouts, paper fragments, and handwritten-looking notes. A personal timeline can borrow the material relationships while keeping dates and captions orderly.

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