+# Design — Orbit Academy
+
+## Direction
+
+Neo-brutalist learning studio: cream, ink, acid accent, hard outlines, visible weekly artifacts, and playful but disciplined composition.
+
+## System
+
+- Preserve semantic tokens, strong borders, typographic hierarchy, and deliberate grid breaks.
+- Use artifacts and critique evidence instead of generic education illustrations.
+- Motion may feel energetic but must remain purposeful, performant, and reduced-motion safe.
+- Mobile maintains readable schedules, application steps, and artifact captions.
+
+## Intentional patterns
+
+Hard one-pixel borders and accent side rules are core identity, not detector violations when used consistently.

+# Product — Orbit Academy
+
+Status: approved baseline.
+
+## Audience and job
+
+Prospective and active cohort learners need to understand the program, evaluate mentors and outcomes, follow weekly artifacts, and complete an informed admissions journey.
+
+## Primary journeys
+
+1. Compare programs, schedule, workload, outcomes, and cohort fit.
+2. Inspect curriculum artifacts, critiques, mentors, and alumni evidence.
+3. Apply with clear expectations and later navigate cohort/community information.
+
+## Non-goals
+
+- No guaranteed career outcomes, invented alumni claims, or vague curriculum lists.
+
+## Success criteria
+
+The learning model is tangible, admissions requirements are explicit, and the visual identity remains memorable without reducing readability.
