Mantinomia is designed around the text itself. The interface should stay quiet enough for reading, but structured enough that citations, references, notes, profiles, comments, and editor tools remain close at hand.
A document should feel like the same object whether it is being read publicly or edited privately. Profiles, Works, Quick notes, About tabs, and editor controls should therefore share patterns instead of becoming separate worlds.
The design goal is careful attention rather than noise: readable pages, stable navigation, plain labels, and tools that appear where they are useful.
