# Foundations in the Land — Section Design Reference

Schema: Design Details SECTION.md v3.2
Source: https://taylorhare.com/
Website: TaylorHare Architects
Section ID: aaca0f4a-d0bc-4342-a86b-d29fe5284068
Status: deterministic evidence captured; editorial AI review pending

## Purpose

This is a editorial section on the Home page. Use the attached crop and measured browser facts to reconstruct its composition. Do not infer unmeasured source values.

## Layout

960×481px root; block

## Visual signature

minimal, editorial, photographic, asymmetrical-grid, earthy-muted treatment at 1440×2322px. The crop spans 2600–4922px of a 7652px page.

## Components

- Split Hero
- Footer
- Text Link
- Sticky Accent Indicator
- Cascading Text Blocks

## Evidence note

The geometry, typography, colors, media, and animation parameters below come from saved HTML/CSS/browser evidence when present. Website-level roles are supplied separately. Editorial section judgment remains pending unless the MCP resolves this source ID to a promoted canonical record.

## Build blueprint v3.2

### Purpose and classification

- Canonical type: editorial
- Source type: editorial
- Structure: 960×481px root; block
- Layout: 960×481px root; block
- Styles: minimal, editorial, photographic, asymmetrical-grid, earthy-muted
- Components: Split Hero, Footer, Text Link, Sticky Accent Indicator, Cascading Text Blocks
- Purpose: editorial section from the Home page of TaylorHare Architects.
- Visual signature: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) with 960×481px root; block. Inspect the crop for image and content hierarchy.

### Crop and composition

- Crop: 1440×2322px; aspect ratio 0.62:1
- Page bounds: 2600–4922px of 7652px
- Guidance: Preserve the documented hierarchy and relationships; exact measurements were not deterministically captured.

### Exact typography evidence

The sectionScale values were measured inside this crop. The siteRoles values explain how those faces function across the source website; they must not replace section measurements.

  ]
}
```

### Exact color evidence

The section samples record where each computed value was used. Functional roles come from the website-level classifier and remain separate.

```json
{
  "sectionUsage": [],
  "functionalPalette": [
    {
      "hex": "#EEEBE5",
      "name": "canvas",
      "role": "canvas",
      "source": "computed",
      "evidence": "color-3: computed rgb(238, 235, 229); AI role: #EEEBE5 serves as the primary page background color.",
      "sampleId": "color-3",
      "confidence": 0.95
    },
    {
      "hex": "#132019",
      "name": "text",
      "role": "text",
      "source": "computed",
      "evidence": "color-1: computed rgb(19, 32, 25); AI role: #132019 is the dark color used for primary text elements across the page.",
      "sampleId": "color-1",
      "confidence": 0.95
    },
    {
      "hex": "#E4644B",
      "name": "accent",
      "role": "accent",
      "source": "computed",
      "evidence": "color-4: computed rgb(228, 100, 75); AI role: #E4644B (terracotta) is used exclusively for the floating accent circle on the right edge.",
      "sampleId": "color-4",
      "confidence": 0.9
    }
  ]
}
```

### Design tokens

```json
{
  "radius": "No visible border-radius on structural elements or images.",
  "density": "Low density, allowing typography and imagery to stand out independently.",
  "evidence": "Visual inspection of the screenshots shows straight edges on all photos, large empty areas of beige background, and off-grid alignment.",
  "borderStyle": "Borders are absent; visual separation is achieved through negative space and solid background blocks.",
  "buttonStyle": "Buttons are largely absent, relying on minimal text links with underlines.",
  "cornerStyle": "Sharp, 0px corners on all images and background color blocks.",
  "contentWidth": "Images often break the grid or bleed to the edge, while text is constrained to specific narrow columns.",
  "spacingRhythm": "Generous vertical and horizontal padding, creating a slow-paced, breathable rhythm."
}
```

### Reconstruction specification

This is the implementation contract for the captured desktop viewport. Prefer section-specific facts here over general website descriptions.

- Root: 960×481px; block; padding {"top":"0px","right":"0px","bottom":"0px","left":"0px"}; gap normal; background rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); radius 0px.
- Representative content widths: 960, 721, 480, 447, 391, 333, 327px.
- Layout containers: 0; cards/surfaces: 0; media elements: 3; browser animations: 0.

### Measured geometry, surfaces, media, and animation

These raw values come from the saved element map and computed styles. Empty arrays mean the fact was not captured; they are not permission to invent source values.

### Observed motion

No timestamped authored motion is attached. Use only restrained baseline transitions.

The browser animation records above are deterministic parameters captured from active browser animations. The timestamped observations describe what Gemini saw in the video. Treat them as complementary evidence. When either source is empty or they conflict, state the uncertainty instead of inventing timing or easing.

### Responsive contract

- Measured viewport: 1440px wide.
- Mobile/tablet values: not measured by this section evidence unless a separate capture is explicitly listed.
- Preserve hierarchy and sequence; collapse simultaneous columns only where needed, maintain media aspect ratios, and verify touch targets and text wrapping at target breakpoints.

### Structure versus visual skin

- Preserve: content hierarchy, layout relationships, section rhythm, interaction purpose.
- Adapt: brand colors, font family, copy, imagery, icons, decorative details.
- Rule: Preserve the observed design logic while creating original branding, copy, assets, and implementation details.

### Adaptation and dependencies

- Effort: Not assessed
- What transfers: Documented hierarchy and composition
- Dependencies: None recorded
- Guidance: Adapt the pattern to the new product and content.

### Evidence readiness

- Coverage: 7/7
- Can build: Yes
- Missing facts: timestamped authored motion
- Warning: Buildable with adaptations for these unsupported facts: timestamped authored motion.

### Agent implementation prompt

Create an original editorial section inspired by the design evidence titled “Foundations in the Land”.

Purpose: editorial section from the Home page of TaylorHare Architects.

Structure: 960×481px root; block. Source layout label: 960×481px root; block. Preserve the documented hierarchy and relationships; exact measurements were not deterministically captured.

Visual signature to preserve at the pattern level: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) with 960×481px root; block. Inspect the crop for image and content hierarchy.

Components: Split Hero, Footer, Text Link, Sticky Accent Indicator, Cascading Text Blocks.

Style direction: minimal, editorial, photographic, asymmetrical-grid, earthy-muted.

Observed crop: 1440×2322px (0.62:1). Treat this as evidence of composition, not a mandatory output size.

Do not invent signature motion. Use only restrained baseline transitions if the product needs them.

Transfer the documented hierarchy and composition rather than source copy or assets.

No explicit dependencies were recorded.

Adapt the pattern to the new product and content.

Use new copy, imagery, branding, and implementation details. Do not reproduce the source website or its proprietary assets.
