Style Version Control

Styles evolve. The brand's visual language in January is not identical to March — it has been refined, extended, and sometimes deliberately shifted. Style version control tracks these changes so that you can reproduce any historical style and understand why the current style looks the way it does.

Version the style specification like code. v1.0.0: initial extraction from reference images. v1.1.0: palette adjusted — swapped secondary accent from amber to gold based on A/B test results. v1.2.0: typography updated — added Exo 2 Black weight for hero headlines. v2.0.0: major style revision — introduced glassmorphism panels, redefined spatial rhythm. Each version includes the full specification, the changelog, and the rationale.

When producing assets, specify which style version applies. Campaign assets use v2.0.0. Legacy documentation uses v1.2.0. The generator loads the correct specification version. The critic evaluates against the correct version. No ambiguity about which style standard applies to which output.
