CONTROLLED VISUAL RESET · v0.2 · 15 AUG 2026
What was preserved.
What was replaced.
Preserved
- The original / route remains the complete v0.1 comparison point.
- The 22-beat journey, five acts, storyboard data and review routes are unchanged.
- Responsive foundations, reduced motion and semantic token mechanics remain available.
- The work is protected by a Git checkpoint on main; v0.2 is isolated on its own branch.
Visually rejected
- The muddy olive, khaki, brown and murky teal atmosphere has no authority in v0.2.
- Monospace is removed from the defining visual voice and limited to legacy v0.1 notation.
- CSS capsule people, rectangle cargo and gradient environments are not used by /v02.
- The former developer-progress-bar timeline is not carried into the reset.
V0.2 decisions
- Warm architectural white is the dominant surface; deep neutral is used selectively.
- Six paired styleframes hold spatial composition constant across cinematic and line-art treatments.
- The ocean horizon becomes the conceptual source for the precision journey ruler.
- Public navigation is separated from a clearly labelled prototype dock.
Temporary assumptions
- The neutral/navy/coral baseline is explicitly temporary, not an approved brand palette.
- Helvetica Neue, Avenir Next and Optima system stacks are comparison devices, not final font selections.
- Origin and destination remain unnamed; the shipment remains ambiguous precision equipment.
- hello@luex.global remains a contact placeholder requiring confirmation.
Production assets required
- The generated styleframes are art-direction studies, not final campaign photography or commissioned illustration.
- A production pass needs one recurring real or cast LUEX lead with identity continuity across frames.
- Crate construction, labels, PPE and handling methods require route-specific freight validation.
- Typography requires cross-platform font testing and an open-font selection after founder review.
Recommendation for v0.3
- Select Concept A, Concept B or one tightly defined hybrid after reviewing the six frozen frames.
- Validate the three typography directions independently of colour preference.
- Operationally audit the six selected scenes before commissioning further frames.
- Only then extend the approved language across the remaining journey beats.
Compare v0.1, the frozen visual studies and the selective v0.2 experience with palette controls.
