SRC Codex

Public standards for building with clarity

The Codex brings together principles of design, commerce, technology and creator relationships. It is a public guide to how SRC thinks, without exposing private operations or sensitive data.

Clarity before lore

Narrative supports the experience, but must never prevent shopping, contacting us, applying or understanding a division.

Objects with a story

Sold-out pieces move to Store Archive with context, specifications and links to their collection, rather than being deleted.

Minimal data

Forms should ask only for what is necessary, respect consent and keep marketing, support and operations separate.

Accessibility and performance

Visual styling is a progressive enhancement: good contrast, keyboard access, mobile support, reduced motion and fast loading come first.
