Turn each photo I upload into its own standalone, sophisticated design poster. Do not combine multiple photos into a collage; output a separate poster for each photo. Use a vertical 3:4 composition, divided into upper and lower sections with a strict 1:1 height ratio, each occupying 50% of the image.

In the upper half, retain the original photograph, preserving the subject's structure, realistic textures, natural light and shadow, and original color atmosphere. Apply only subtle, refined photographic color grading to give it the feel of an art magazine, independent publication, or exhibition photograph. To fit the format, you may naturally extend the sky, ground, or surrounding background, but do not stretch, distort, or alter the subject.

In the lower half, extract the photograph's most recognizable subject, contours, pose, and narrative relationships, and reconstruct them using isometric spatial logic. Do not simply turn the original object into a 3D model. Instead, break the subject down into clearly defined volumes, layers, cut planes, and spatial relationships, then reassemble them along consistent isometric axes. Combine the structural order of an architectural model with the visual distillation of editorial illustration. You may moderately adjust the viewing angle, proportions, and local structures to better reveal the subject's most representative forms, but its defining identity must remain recognizable at a glance.

Also derive a thematic motif from the photograph's central content, action, structure, or symbolic relationships. Geometrize and symbolize it, then integrate it into the isometric composition. This motif may become a base, cut plane, spatial opening, path, enclosing structure, or negative space. Let the subject pass through it, interlock with it, float within it, be intersected by it, rest upon it, or occupy staggered levels in relation to it. The theme must not be an added decoration; it must be the compositional mechanism that determines how the subject exists in space.

Adapt the composition to the subject's visual center of gravity, directional contours, and spatial characteristics. Establish professional compositional order through isometric axes, volume proportions, staggered layers, contrasts of scale, partial cropping, and generous negative space. The subject need not be mechanically centered: it may be offset, suspended, or extend beyond the composition, allowing the isometric structure and thematic motif to form a single visual focal point together.

Use a high-key, clear, soft Japanese-inspired palette and delicate matte materials for the subject. Extract the most vibrant colors that best express the subject's spirit from the photograph above, then refine them into a new palette. Use soft white, cream white, or extremely pale warm tones as the foundation. Transform the core colors into clean, bright, gentle color planes, distinguishing volumes through tonal variations within the same color family and a few accent colors. Lighting should be soft yet clearly defined, with subtle light and shade making the structure legible. Avoid heavy 3D shadows, plastic materials, and muddy gray tones.

Keep ample negative space in the background, and add traces of creative research inspired by Leonardo da Vinci's manuscripts: subject-related contour sketches, structural breakdowns, enlarged details, proportion lines, measurement lines, arrows, geometric explorations, observational drawings of nature, and miniature annotations. Distribute these faintly around the subject in very pale pencil, ochre ink lines, or the texture of faded manuscripts. These studies should resemble traces of thought left behind during the design process, contrasting with the precise isometric subject as a rational finished work set against an intuitive research process. They must not create a second visual focal point.

Organize the typography around the theme and spatial structure as well. Derive a short title from the photographic subject's identity, action, emotion, or symbolic meaning, accompanied by only a very small amount of place information, words describing its state, or miniature annotations. Text may follow the isometric axes, the boundaries of the thematic motif, structural cut planes, or manuscript guide lines. Arrange it horizontally, vertically, in staggered positions, interwoven with the composition, or hidden within negative space. Make the typography feel like an information layer in a design drawing or sophisticated art publication, rather than a title pasted on afterward.

The overall visual character should combine thematic metaphor × isometric spatial order × Da Vinci-inspired research manuscripts × clear, airy Japanese-inspired colors × East Asian use of negative space × sophisticated editorial design. Whether the subject is a person, animal, plant, building, object, food, vehicle, or natural landscape, find the most suitable isometric reconstruction method through its own structure. Avoid generic 3D models, a game-environment aesthetic, an axonometric engineering-drawing look, cartoon low-poly styling, mechanical centering, an e-commerce display aesthetic, and a formulaic template appearance.
