SQUARE MILE DESIGN®
Luke Paxton

Square
Mile Design

I build things to understand them. Twenty years now, from architecture to startups to applied AI research, and the instinct has not changed.

Research/Prototype/Understand
ProjectsPrototypes built to answer a question. Retrieval, local models, publishing tools, and one machine that lives in the garden.EssaysNotes from building. Retrieval, AI, design, and process, written to work something out rather than to report a conclusion.

(02)   What I do

Capabilities
01Applied AITurning frontier techniques into production tools. Retrieval that holds up under audit, models built to pass review.
02PrototypingFast, functional prototypes that prove the idea before anyone commits a quarter to it.
03Design EngineeringClean, considered front-end. Next.js, TypeScript, the whole surface. Design that actually ships.
04WritingLong essays on AI, retrieval, and interfaces. Speculative pieces on where things go next.

Always interested in where applied AI is heading. Remote, a frontier lab, a fast startup, or a large company serious about shipping.
