Gerstner Programmatic Grid Variations (Style-Only, Image-Conditioned)

Re-render this image as an image-only experiment in Karl Gerstner's programmatic Swiss design, circa the 1960s. Preserve the subject's pose, scale, and placement, translating its contours into a compact family of flat geometric forms. Lay out a visible grid whose columns alternate between narrow and wide modules according to one repeatable rule. At each intersection allow just three possible marks: a solid black square, an open cream square, or a small vermilion disk. Arrange those choices to reveal the light and dark masses of the source scene, with one larger uninterrupted shape holding the subject together. Keep the rule legible in the neighboring modules; this is a coherent system, not a checkerboard filter. Print the blacks as rich offset solids and the red as a separate slightly translucent plate on warm white stock. Small registration gaps and gentle ink gain at block edges remind the eye that a physical matrix was printed. Reserve an ample, continuous clean field for a future title overlay, even while the rest of the grid works hard. Leave a calm, uncluttered band of negative space along the top or bottom edge where a title could sit. Mood: playful calculation, disciplined possibility, not clinical data visualization. Do not insert labels or pseudo-letters into the modules. Strictly no on-canvas text, no legible lettering, no signature, no watermark, no logos. Preserve the subject, pose, and composition of the source image exactly, change only the medium and rendering. Aspect ratio matches source.
