Field Glass — Design Vision
Last year's broadcast package and the newer concept work gave this system its grammar: navy ground, one cyan, condensed caps, tabular numbers, contour linework. We've stretched it in places, but the foundation is that work — carried across live, scoring, and the app.
The same parts scale from the 1080p overlay down to a phone. The standings rows inside this phone are literally the overlay component — same code, same tokens, untouched. The app inherits the glass idea whole: navigation floats, content stays opaque navy.
Two registers over one shared core. Most pages are aspirational — they tell the story. The Live page is functional — it runs the day. Same colors, same materials, same north; only density and emphasis change.
Home, the route, teams and people — cinematic, terrain-led, written in declarative fragments. The desert does the talking; data appears as punctuation.
One page you configure, not eight you hunt through. Lead with the story feed, the map, or the scoring — and watch the whole pack, or just your team.
One massive teams page carries everything today. Split it in two: Teams keeps the season roster — number, class, vehicle. People gives every competitor a page of her own — every rally she's run, and every team she's run it with. Ten years of history becomes navigable instead of buried.
Concept comps, not specs — the same system carried to its three destinations: the live day dashboard, the story-led homepage, and the app. Squint past the details; the grammar is what ships.
This comp is where I started. Since then I've leaned harder into the dashboard take (05) — one configurable page made more sense than asking people to toggle between three.
