Building kit
Land + production
A small architectural kit turns one field into a working farm: house core, wing and porch; barn hall, lean-to and hay shed; plus the productive landscape between them.
Three colors describe the farmhouse and three describe the barn. Those roles control height, roof form, openness, doors and materials; the remaining colors organize the land.
Each colored building part stays rectangular, while adjacent parts compose a richer footprint. The decoder knows which volume is primary, secondary, covered or open.
A future neural cellular automaton only needs to emit twelve logits per cell. The selected decoder supplies everything from roofs and orchards to reactors, drill rigs and solar arrays.
