In architecture, especially when working with a minimalist mindset, there s a constant tension between abstraction removing what s unnecessary to reach the essence and pure simplicity, which can sometimes cross into being merely bare.

This same dilemma appears in product design, especially now that technology lets us build and iterate faster than ever. Every new tool and API makes it tempting to add just one more feature, one more layer of smartness. The line between essential and excessive gets blurred.

With my app, I face this challenge: Does adding something new really improve the user s experience, or does it distract from the clarity I set out to achieve?

It s a question that feels urgent, as new tech makes it so easy to go in either direction. Where do you draw the line between powerful abstraction and oversimplification and how do you resist the pull of adding more, just because you can?

Hi, i am new here. I ve spent a lot of time on site lately,taking photos, writing notes, marking up drawings.

t s always a bit messy. Photos get lost, notes end up in random apps, and sharing things with the team isn t always smooth.

This is a real problem for me and my team, and it s why I started building an app to solve it. But I know my experience isn t unique, so I d love to hear how others especially from different professions handle documentation and communication.

Thanks
