The canonical practice
Use a consistent visual identity with rules that make correct application easy.
What the current news changes
As AI tools become increasingly integrated into creative workflows, designers must ensure that their use of these technologies aligns with the brand's visual identity and enhances user experience, rather than undermining it.
