Factory. Terminal war room at midnight.

Factory operates as a terminal war room: deep black canvas, weight-400 Geist type pressed tight with negative tracking, and generous negative space that lets two functional accents — signal orange and metric green — speak above the noise. The signature move is the light card floating on near-black ground (#eeeeee panels on #101010 canvas), creating stark figure/ground contrast rather than soft elevation. Almost all interaction is carried by monochrome surfaces; chromatic color is reserved for live data states and status pulses, never decoration. Components sit flat with minimal radii, thin 1px borders, and zero shadow dependency — the design earns its depth through contrast and spacing rhythm, not blur or glow.
