Infrastructure that gets out of the way
A worked example — your pattern, sitting behind real page furniture.
Start buildingHow it works
A plain grid of squares, each nudged off its station and turned on its centre by an amount that starts at nothing along the top edge and grows with depth. The growth is a power curve, so the ramp control decides whether order gives way early and gradually or holds almost to the last rows and then collapses. It is the oldest trick in generative design — Georg Nees printed it in 1968 — and it still works because the eye reads the intact rows as a promise and the broken ones as a broken promise.
