Home

Landing and the house, merged into one screen. The top of the scroll is what is next, roughly this week. Below it is the house itself, what has been kept for the whole house, and the vision. The dock drops to five tiles because Now is no longer a separate place. The build timeline lives only on Build health, and money is one card, the projected final cost, which Build health shows too.

A Open, no date

The everyday screen, and it is live: the filter regroups the board, turning learning off under This house asks first, and the capture button under the wall opens its sheet. How the wall behaves, capture and the full list are in Kept Things. The next answer leads, then the other four. The room board follows, and each room card reports only its own count, so the house no longer repeats the list above it.

A house that stays light all day, keeps the mess out of the kitchen, and is quiet at the back where the bedrooms are. We would rather do less of it and do it properly.

A1 Room-specific illustration

When the next answer belongs to a room with its own plate, the illustration replaces the placeholder, so the card at the top matches that room’s card on the board. It has a date, so the clock takes the phase slot.

B Dated

The next answer has a date, so the amber clock takes the phase slot and the card carries the day. Dated answers always lead the list; here the only one is the card itself.

C Caught up

No next answer, so no card and no plate. What sits with Dave moves up, and the house board is reached one block sooner. There is no primary action because the next move is not the homeowner’s.

D Dark

The everyday screen in the dark appearance. The placeholder plate switches to its dark drawing; the room plates stay as they are.

E Desktop · open, no date

The whole scroll on the desk canvas. What is next takes the first two-column row, the keeps and the vision share the second, and the room board runs full width at the end, unbounded. The rail carries five places, with The house selected.

A house that stays light all day, keeps the mess out of the kitchen, and is quiet at the back where the bedrooms are. We would rather do less of it and do it properly.

F Desktop · caught up

With no next answer, the first row pairs what sits with Dave with the keeps that have no room. Those keeps are the one loose end still in the homeowner’s hands, so they move up rather than leaving an empty column.

Sheets from Home

Everything Home opens without leaving it. The phase pill opens S1 and the bell opens S2. Everything the keeps wall opens is specified in Kept Things.

S1 About this phase

The pill opens the system’s one overlay — bottom-anchored on a phone, side-anchored from the tablet rung up, so the desktop version is this content in the same component. It reads in the order a homeowner asks, and has no footer action because reading it is the job.

S2 What has happened

Dated reports live behind the app-bar action rather than loose on the page. Grouped by day, each with its source, green settled markers throughout — every line is something already true, and none of it is work.

Other houses

The same screen for a house on day one and for a semi-custom house, plus the record behind the “decided before you” card.

2a The binder with nothing in it

Day one, before anybody has been interviewed about the house. Same screen with day-one content: one room is named as the place to start, and the room cards carry no captions, because the support line already says once why it is empty and what fills it.

Start with the kitchen
Nothing is waiting on you in the other eight. They are asked about one at a time, in the order the build needs them.
2b Most of it was decided before you

A semi-custom house, where the builder settled the structure before there was a buyer. Home opens on the three things that are the homeowner’s, and what was decided before them sits behind one card at the end, with a line saying why it is safe to ignore.

Eleven more like these. They open as each room gets close.
Five more spaces. A caption shows up on a room once its count tells you something.
Show me what was decided
2c What was decided, and what nobody has said

Behind the card in 2b, and two different nothings kept apart. The first run is decisions with answers, from the plan set — a record, not a list of things to do. The second is decisions the house answered in concrete before anyone was watching: past tense, about the house, and optional always. Merging them would produce a set of blanks presented as a backlog. The last line names what is absent, because absence is invisible by construction.

Optional, always. Filling one in is how the rest of that room stops being blank.
A slab house has no basement, so nothing about one is in this binder or anywhere else. I do not keep questions that do not apply to your house.
Reference

The phase marks and the mark beside the pill. The phase tweak changes the pill on every frame above.

R1 Phase marks

One mark per phase, pigment throughout, shown in the pill. Structure uses the design system’s own hammer; the other five have no glyph in the set, so they are drawn in its language — 24px box, 1.8 stroke, round caps — and want a designer’s pass before they ship. No seasonal variants: a mark that changes with the weather makes the same screen look different for a reason the homeowner cannot name.

{{ gDesign }}
Phase 1
Design & Planning
Drafting compass. Drawings, allowances, permits — nothing built yet.
{{ gSite }}

Graded ground. Clearing, utilities, foundation.

Phase 6
Handover & care
House with a heart. Punch list, warranty, living in it.
R2 The mark beside the pill

One slot, three readings, and it reports on the phase rather than on the screen. The slot never disappears, so the phase line always answers “how is this phase doing” before the hero says what to do about it.

{{ clearGlyphSm }}
Clear
Nothing in this phase is waiting on you. Green, because it reports something already true.
{{ workGlyphSm }}
Open, no date
Answers are waiting but nothing is timed. Plain ink, because there is nothing to raise the temperature about.
{{ clockGlyphSm }}
Dated
Something in this phase has a date on it. Amber is a clock, not a warning, and never appears without one.

The checklist is a sketch in the system’s stroke language; the set has no list glyph.
