About the studio · Nº 02

A creative studio for innovative ideas, sharp systems, and memorable digital work.

We shape early sparks into polished web experiences, visual identities, and creative tools. The practice moves between research, design, and engineering so every project feels intentional, useful, and unmistakably its own.

Capabilities · Nº 03

Skills, systems, and surfaces for creative intelligence.

We blend human taste with whichever agent you already trust to ship interfaces, decks, and editorial pages that feel intentional, expressive, and alive.

Deck
Nº 012026

Magazine Decks

Editorial-grade slide decks with guizang-ppt. Magazine layout, WebGL hero.

Synthetic Matter

Gpt-image-2 + Seedance + HyperFrames. Image, video, audio — same chat surface as code.

Loop

Prompt Choreography

The interactive question form pops before a single pixel is improvised. 30s of radios beats 30min of redirects.

Visual Reasoning

5-dim self-critique gates every artifact: philosophy · hierarchy · execution · specificity · restraint.

V. Method / Loop 04 stages, iterative 005 / 008
Method · Nº 05

From signals to systems.

+

Every stage is iterative, visual, and research-driven — composable files, not opaque prompts.

01

Detect

The daemon scans your $PATH for 12 coding agents and auto-loads 31 skills + 72 systems on boot.

02

Discover

Turn 1 is a question form — surface, audience, tone, scale, brand context. Locked in 30 seconds.

03

Direct

Pick one of 5 deterministic visual directions. Palette in OKLch, font stack, layout posture cues.

04

Deliver

The agent writes to disk, you preview in a sandboxed iframe, export HTML / PDF / PPTX / ZIP / Markdown.

Skills inform everything. Files make it real.

Start a conversation · Nº 07

Let's build something open and visually unforgettable.

Bring the spark, the half-formed idea, or the brief that needs a sharper shape. We can turn it into a digital experience with a point of view, a useful system, and a visual pulse people remember.
