EDITORIAL INFOGRAPHIC POSTER, hand-printed magazine spread aesthetic, 4:5 portrait orientation, 4K print quality.

HEADER (top of poster): Bold elegant serif title "CORVALLIS, OR — CLIMATE". A small badge in the top-right corner reads "OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY — CORVALLIS, OR" inside a circle filled with OSU orange (#D73F09).

BACKGROUND: Warm cream paper texture #F4ECDC throughout, with subtle hand-printed grain. NO white background.

PALETTE (use ONLY these colors, no others):
- Paper background: #F4ECDC
- Body typography (deep coffee ink): #2A1810
- Primary accent for icons + key numbers: OSU orange #D73F09
- Secondary accent: forest green #2E5339

BODY (vertical editorial layout, generous whitespace, with iconography paired to each data point). Render these EXACT data points verbatim, in this order:

   1. 157 sunny days per year (US average is 205)
   2. Mediterranean: dry summer, wet winter
   3. January: 47°F high · 36°F low
   4. July: 83°F high · 52°F low
   5. Summer afternoon humidity: 50–65%
   6. Winter humidity: 85–89% (saturated, persistent damp)
   7. Annual sunshine hours: ~2,500
   8. December: only 76 hours of sunshine
   9. Days with measurable precipitation: 155
   10. Pacific Coast: 1 hour west

The big numbers (like "249", "$1,200", "1,250 miles") should be BIG and prominent in #D73F09, with smaller ink labels next to them. Use a clean geometric sans-serif for data labels and an elegant serif for the headline.

ICONOGRAPHY (hand-drawn, minimalist line illustrations only — no photographs): rain cloud with droplets, tall fir tree, fern frond, subtle coastal wave

FOOTER (bottom): A small italic line in muted #2A1810 reads "compiled 2026-04-28".

ABSOLUTELY DO NOT include: photorealistic photography, stock-photo people, neon colors, holographic effects, gradient mesh, generic AI aesthetic, any colors outside the specified palette, additional logos, watermarks, or text beyond what is specified.

Hand-printed editorial restraint. Strong serif typography. Numbers prominent. Aspect ratio 4:5 portrait. 4K resolution print quality.

## Adjustment hints
- **To re-render at higher resolution**: this script already requests 4K; if rendering quality is off, increase resolution by editing the `--size 4K` flag in generate-all.ts to a future tier
- **To adjust color temperature**: change `accent` and `secondary` hex codes in the SPECS entry for osu-climate.png; re-run `bun generate-all.ts osu-climate.png`
- **To add/remove data points**: edit the `data` array in SPECS for osu-climate.png; the prompt rebuilds automatically
- **To shift layout (vertical vs grid)**: append a layout directive after the BODY paragraph in buildPrompt(); re-run
- **To swap iconography**: edit the `iconography` array in SPECS
