Art style: Ghibli-style 2D animation, Victorian greenhouse aesthetic, blizzard outside, warm lantern light inside, lush greenery, 4K, cozy atmosphere. SETTING: A row of tall weathered wooden stilt houses lining the edge of a tropical river, their posts rising from the water. Balconies and porches jut out over the river, strung with drying laundry swaying in the morning air. Potted plants — leafy greens, small flowering shrubs, herbs in old tins — crowd the wooden railings. The walls are aged plank timber, sun-bleached and water-stained, with patches of green moss near the waterline. COMPOSITION & CAMERA: Wide vertical panning shot, eye-level slightly low from the water looking up along the row of houses, the vertical frame emphasizing the tall stilts rising from water at the bottom to roofs and glowing sky at the top. Upright, no tilt. LIGHTING: Warm early-morning golden sunlight raking across the weathered walls from the left, illuminating the wood grain and casting long soft shadows, gentle diffusion, honey-warm color temperature, light glowing through hanging laundry. MOOD & ATMOSPHERE: Domestic warmth, intimacy, quiet human life beginning, nostalgic and peaceful. CHARACTER ACTION & EXPRESSION: No focal character; small distant figures move on porches — someone hanging cloth, a shadow stirring inside a doorway — all calm and unhurried. COLORS: Weathered amber and honey browns, jasmine whites of laundry, green potted plants, teal shadow pools near the water, coral highlights on the roofs. TEXTURES & MATERIALS: Rough sun-bleached plank walls, mossy stilt posts, woven bamboo screens, terracotta pots, damp timber. DEPTH & LAYERS: Foreground — a mossy stilt post rising from rippling water with dew beading on it. Midground — the porches with plants, laundry, and railings glowing in sun. Background — the receding row of houses fading into warm morning haze and glowing sky. WEATHER & PARTICLES: Faint morning haze, drifting motes in the light shafts, gentle steam from a cooking window, tiny water ripples below. MICRO-DETAILS: Water droplets on laundry lines, a wind chime swaying, reflections of houses wobbling on the water, worn grain in the wood. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Ghibli-style 2D animation, Victorian greenhouse aesthetic, blizzard outside, warm lantern light inside, lush greenery, 4K, cozy atmosphere" style.
