Wainscoting · a brief.

A horizontal wood-linear field along the lower half of a vertical surface. Rhythm at 950mm. Surface tension at 3mm reveal. Material logic — wood-linear, never panel. Proportion — 1 : 1.618.

The term lives at depth four. Atoms — rhythm, tension, wood, horizontal. Cultural mirror — Georgian to Victorian. The composer should produce twelve variations; pick the three with compressibility above 0.75.

Four steps to compose.

welcome → brief → atoms → compose
05.01 First-run flow 4 cards · paprika top on active
01 · welcome

Composed,
not designed.

five-minute tour of the system. nothing to install.
02 · brief

Write a seed.

one sentence. natural language. the parser extracts atoms.
03 · atoms

Pick up to 8.

twenty primitives. four is the typical depth. eight is the ceiling.
04 · compose

Run the derivation.

the composer produces variations. ranked by compressibility.
