The mark
The khātam.
An eight-pointed star of two overlapping squares, drawn on a 100×100 grid with compass and straightedge. The outer star never changes; only the center does. Clear space is half the mark’s width. Minimum size is 20px.

Palette
From manuscript and tile.
Every house color comes from one master palette drawn from illumination and tilework. Gold is for accents only, never body text.

Typography
Each house speaks in its own type.
A house’s display face is never used in another house. The Collective site is the one exception, so it can introduce each house in its own voice. Arabic word-signs are set in Reem Kufi everywhere.
Technology, built with intention.
Intelligence, with intention.
Build it right.
A home for the centers.
FORK IT. FIX IT.
Careful questions.
