ART DIRECTION
Interpret the supplied event in Neon Sign / Diner Americana style.
Visual vocabulary: glowing letterforms with a soft neon halo effect on dark background; outlined tube-style lettering suggesting bent glass tubing; dark ground — deep blue-black or near-black; {"vivid saturated colour"=>"hot pink, electric blue, yellow-white, red"}; arrows, stars, or simple geometric motifs as secondary neon elements.
Lettering direction: script or rounded display letterforms evoking hand-bent neon tube; outlined rather than solid — the tube is the stroke, not a fill; generous letter spacing to suggest physical tube construction.
Suggested colors: deep blue-black ground; neon pink, electric blue, acid yellow, warm white glow.
Composition: dominant illuminated headline; secondary neon motif; dark field surrounding.
Atmosphere: nocturnal, American roadside, retro-glamorous, warmly commercial.
Keep out of the design: daylight or bright white backgrounds, flat colour without glow, hand-crafted or artisanal warmth, artificial yellowing or ageing.
Apply the visual language to the supplied event; do not invent historical affiliations, endorsements, or extra copy.
