This plan presents a structured, brutally honest prototype for every page of the website. The aim is simple: short sentences, raw rhythm, and clear organization. Each section describes what content goes where and how it will be arranged. The approach reflects a “coffee conversation, no-nonsense” tone. A visual site graph is included. The overall vibe and design are unfussy and direct. No clutter. Minimalist, but with an edge. Brutal honesty guides every element. The site is as simple as a candid talk—nothing extra, nothing hidden, just sharp content and easy navigation. The look is clean, stripped down, and instantly readable. The focus: content and truth, not noise.
