UI Design Direction

Priority: P0 (CRITICAL)

Before writing any code, commit to deliberate aesthetic direction.

Phase 0: Design Thinking (Mandatory Pre-Code)

Answer these before touching implementation:

1. Purpose: What problem this UI solve? Who uses it?
2. Tone: Pick one extreme and commit — brutally minimal | maximalist | retro-futuristic | editorial/magazine | luxury/refined | brutalist/raw | playful/toy-like | organic/natural | art deco | industrial/utilitarian
3. Differentiation: Name one thing user will remember about this interface.

Bold maximalism and refined minimalism both work — intentionality, not intensity, key.
