No five-pointed stars. Three circular points of different scale, staggered on a diagonal and held inside a single circular orbit — precise, not symmetrical. Balance without repetition.
Four explorations of the three-point idea, all built from unequal circles — never five-pointed stars, never a straight row.
Each point drifts on its own slow, elliptical path — independent periods so the three never repeat in sync. The ring rotates once every 40 seconds. Used for splash screens, loading states, and the nav mark on hover. Never used decoratively at rest.
Motion is rare. There is one moment on arrival, and after that things only move to answer what a person does.
The home chart’s constellation is drawn line by line, once, when the page loads. A route between points, not a fade.
Choosing a star rings it and draws its bearing from the pole. The reading beside the headline swaps with a short fade.
