For
Visitors who enjoy participatory design experiments
Worth noticing
The page marks its current state as Season 01 Day 01 /30 and describes the baseline as readable type, agreeable colors, and a little order.

Field notes

The baseline is spelled out in design terms: the type is readable, the colors get along, and nothing is spinning or shouting. The page says visitors can vote for one change each day and suggest what comes next; it also promises a reset after 30 days. The extracted homepage does not reveal how voting works or show the ground rules.
