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

HEADER (top of poster): Bold elegant serif title "CORVALLIS — OFF-CAMPUS FOOD". 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. Avg student grocery spend nationally: $272–$429/mo
   2. Cheapest grocery: WinCo (2335 NW Kings Blvd)
   3. Closest to campus: Fred Meyer (777 NW Kings Blvd)
   4. Local + organic: First Alternative Co-op (2 locations)
   5. Co-op ownership: $70 one-time + 10% off once/month
   6. Saturday farmers market — downtown Corvallis
   7. International groceries: Asian, Latin, Indian markets
   8. Restaurants: Monroe Ave + downtown 2nd/3rd Streets
   9. Free RTA buses with student ID for grocery runs

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): grocery cart, carrot, apple, downtown storefront

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-food-offcampus.png; re-run `bun generate-all.ts osu-food-offcampus.png`
- **To add/remove data points**: edit the `data` array in SPECS for osu-food-offcampus.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
