About
Design Is a Set of Decisions
Coding agents can build almost anything now, and much of it looks the same. Not because people lack taste, but because taste is hard to hand over. You can point at a site you love, but an agent can't see what makes it work.
What we believe
Four Ideas Behind Every Kit
Livery reads the decisions behind a design (one accent, never a shadow, type that tightens as it grows) and writes them down with the reasons attached. Then it asks you before it changes anything.
- --accent#0d7268Why: one accent per screen, on the action you want taken. Never on large surfaces.01
Reasons Over Values
A palette is easy to copy. Knowing when not to use it is the design, so every value in a kit carries its why.
- Style
“Geometric mark, one heavy ring, a single accent.”
02Style, Never Assets
We describe how a site feels. We never copy what belongs to its owner: logos, photos, fonts and words stay theirs.

03Your Project, Your Rules
Kits audit first, ask second, and commit one area at a time, so any change can be undone on its own.

Read before every visit
04Owners Decide
One small file lets a site share more of its design, or opt out entirely. Livery reads it before every visit.
