# experiments, tools & artful interfaces

We are a small circle of friends who like shipping things together—code, words, and odd corners of the internet. This site is our home base: experiments, projects, writing, and eventually curated topic pages on the stuff we obsess over—retro UIs, ASCII, CLIs, and tools worth your attention. We tinker in public.
