Finished hand-drawn marker editorial illustration, landscape 5:3. Pavement-height view of a national environmental research institute: a squat turquoise concrete building with an exaggerated cantilevered upper wing, recessed glass entrance and three broad cream steps. A few large dark-blue solar-panel rectangles sit flush on the roof. On the left entrance step, one young adult researcher lounges sideways beside an oversized closed coral portfolio. Distinctive triangular torso, very long bent legs, short asymmetric hair, minimal face and simple hands; casual yellow shirt and dark trousers, no lab coat. Their relaxed, slightly defiant posture contrasts with the formal architecture. Building and character form one connected vignette occupying the left two-thirds, with warm cream breathing room at right. Bright midsummer sunlight, one broad violet shadow, thick irregular marker contours, flat colour fills and slight stroke overlap. Thumbnail-legible shapes; no intricate hatching, diagrams, medical equipment or additional people. No text, logos or watermarks.
