arXiv:2606.00592v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Effective visual communication stems from the harmony of multiple design principles, such as readability, contrast, alignment, overlap, and coherence, which collectively govern clarity and intent of the communicator. While human designers reason holistically over these principles, machine agents typically condense them into a single heuristic score, offering limited interpretability and diagnostic precision. To address this gap, we introduce PRISM (PRinciple-aware, Interpretable, and Structure-guided Design Modifications), a benchmark that systematically perturbs professional layouts from the Crello dataset along measurable design principles. The benchmark comprises 100K perturbed training samples and 10K perturbed validation designs, each isolating a specific principle violation for controlled analysis of multimodal reasoning about design quality. We show that models like Qwen-2.
