On the back

Because the back is broader, clear shapes and consistent line weight help the design stay readable. Symmetry tends to look clean here, but slight asymmetry can work if the main axis stays centered and the edges remain open.

Works well for balanced, structured layouts.

Floral linework

Spacing is key for florals. Let petals breathe so the shapes stay distinct, and build the layout around a clear centerline or curve. This style is forgiving across placements because the natural flow of leaves and stems mirrors the body line.

Let the stem guide the layout for natural flow.

The lotus motif

Spacing is important for a lotus. Keep the petal layers distinct and avoid packing too many lines into a small area. A gentle outline with selective inner detail keeps the motif elegant and lets the symmetry stand out.
