The architecture at a glance

The whole plan, shown as a map of related ideas. Two centers of gravity: brand and negative space. Everything else orbits one or the other, or sits in the space between them where the editorial work of the next six weeks needs to happen.

Two centers of gravity hold the plan together. The editorial program is the work of welding them — and the words in the space between them are the connective tissue.

How to read this map

Position is meaningful. Size is meaningful.

Larger circles are concepts that the document returns to most often. Lines between them mean the concepts appear together in the same passages. Colors mark groups of ideas the plan treats as one bundle.

Two ideas are visibly bigger than the rest: brand and negative space. The plan does not pick a single subject — it works the bridge between them.

The bridge

The words doing the welding

Between the two centers sits a small vocabulary: signal noise void friction omission subtext

These are the words the editorial program has to make recognizable. Each anchor article should leave the reader with at least one of them embedded in the next conversation they have about marketing.
