Overview
How might we design style transfer so people can trust and act on AI output?
When to use
- Perfect for design system tools, brand consistency applications, and rapid prototyping workflows where separating structure from styling accelerates design iteration.
When to skip
- Final brand system is locked and manual tokens are required.
- Structure is wrong and styling would mask layout problems.
- Accessibility contrast cannot be verified automatically.
Rules
Style pass that breaks responsive breakpoints silently.
No revert to wireframe-only view.
Applying style without showing which tokens changed.
One-click skin that ignores component semantics.
