Reusable prompt

Use case: stylized-concept. Asset type: original premium art poster, portrait 3:4, one standalone finished image. Create a photographed physical layered cut-paper sculpture of an entirely original Chinese mountain pavilion nestled within jade-green forest terraces. The pavilion has finely folded dark green roof planes and delicate off-white paper columns; a continuous vermilion staircase climbs naturally through the landscape to its entrance. Show the sculpture in three-quarter view, clearly visible stacked paper thickness, finely cut edges, tiny paper fibers, folded leaves, and crisp physical contact shadows. Use an off-white seamless museum backdrop, warm directional museum lighting from upper left and soft fill that reveals every layer. Sculpture occupies the lower four-fifths with calm breathing space above. Keep architectural supports, stair landings and terrain physically connected, with plausible scale and gravity. Refined contemporary collectible art photography, highly detailed, tactile and spatially coherent. No lettering, numbers, logos, watermarks, border, website UI, collage or extra panels.

Public method summary

How Paper Pavilion builds its image

This work belongs to the “City keepsakes” method and uses layered paper. The notes below explain public image logic and do not contain the members-only prompt.

Visual focus: Visible cut edges, paper thickness, vermilion stairs and the pavilion silhouette establish the paper architecture, letting material rather than surface decoration carry the image.
Composition method: Foreground paper strata, middle stairs and the upper pavilion form one continuous ascent; every layer needs a readable edge, connection and distinct contact shadow.
Review evidence: Verify that stairs reach their platforms, paper thickness stays coherent, rails and eaves remain complete, and contact shadows prove that the layers are physically stacked.
