What it is

Free-rein brief, archetype H (explorable stage, no-scroll world), build #47, unattended. Subject chosen to suit the backbone: GLOST, a (fictional) glaze library and test kiln in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent. Potters look up tested glaze recipes for free, send their own recipe to be test-fired (cone 6 oxidation, cone 10 reduction) and come to evening classes on glaze chemistry. Goal: explain + book (send a recipe). Audience: studio potters, ceramics students, small makers. Traits: exact, warm, workshop-plain. Content: none supplied, so every picture is drawn by one glaze engine in code; real-world facts (Potteries, glost firing, celadon iron %, tenmoku, Seger/Orton cones, Stull 1912) come from Wikipedia via `scripts/facts.py`; the studio, prices and schedule are fictional but consistent. Stack: Vite + vanilla JS, WAAPI (GSAP only if a scrub needs it), Lenis on inner pages only.

This is the build's own brief, kept as it was written. GLOST is a demonstration build: it is real, it runs, and it is not a client job.

Measured palette

Six colours sampled from the build itself, in the order they were found. They are listed because a palette is a decision, and decisions should be visible.
