Best Practices

• •Embrace Understatement: Let the products and the stark beauty of the black and white palette do most of the talking. Avoid hyperbole or overly enthusiastic language.
• •Prioritize Clarity and Conciseness: Use precise language. Every word should serve a purpose. Short sentences and focused messaging align with the minimalist aesthetic.
• •Maintain Visual-Verbal Harmony: Ensure the copy always reflects and enhances the clean, sophisticated imagery. If the visuals are minimalist, the text should be too.
• •Focus on Timeless Qualities: Emphasize aspects like classic design, enduring style, quality materials, and the versatility of black and white, rather than fleeting trends.
• •Develop a Lexicon: Create a list of on-brand words (e.g., "curated," "essential," "timeless," "sculptural," "refined," "minimal," "monochrome," "noir," "blanc") and words to avoid (e.g., "cute," "awesome," "crazy," "super," overly trendy slang). This helps maintain consistency across all writers or platforms.
