Ware makes use of flat, isometric perspective and tiny lettering in rigidly regular square or rectangular panels in his diagrammatic pages.[11] Along with its bright, primary colors and simple, cartoon forms,[9] Ware's graphic style employs symmetrical, repetitive geometrical shapes and motifs, using clear lines and colors. The artwork brings unity to the otherwise messy contents of the project. The cutaway interiors of rooms recall the technique used in domestic scenes by 17th-century Dutch painters, as well as the labeled drawings in the children's storybooks of Richard Scarry. Rather than Scarry's labels, though, the building itself comments on the banalities of life in a careful cursive script.[7]
