Use case: infographic-diagram. Create an original illustrated chapter infographic for Gateless by Sebastian Marshall and Kai Zau. Portrait composition, roughly 3:4. Editorial adaptation, not an original book graphic.
Visual mechanism: One recurring person at a simple planning table divides a finite set of copper tokens among a protected reserve jar, a well-used tool that completes a real task, and a meaningful shared activity. Show a calendar with breathing room and an open choice of paths, not an endlessly multiplying money fountain or guaranteed growth curve.
Exact main title: "Give your money a clear job"
Use exactly these three readable short captions, naturally placed near their relevant visual moments: "Keep room to respond"; "Test what truly helps"; "Choose what matters".
Bottom footer, readable: "Gateless · Editorial interpretation"
Style: crafted editorial book illustration with fine ink contours and warm gouache textures; rich plum and muted violet, cream paper, terracotta accents. Generous breathing room, coherent scene with clear visual causality. Expressive ordinary people. Elegant legible serif title, restrained sans-serif captions. No dashboard, no grid of identical cards, no tiny paragraphs, no teal or green, no logos, no incidental text. Spell all requested wording precisely. Clear spatial progression and only a few unobtrusive arrows where useful.
Accuracy constraint: Editorial interpretation of the chapter’s allocation framework; no promised financial return.
