ACRN

pronounced "acorn." we live on Oak Street — the joke writes itself.

A small hacker house: black soil, green things, and a few people who'd rather be building. Equal parts workshop and home. Big ideas planted in a small unit.

01

what this is

An acorn is a small, stubborn thing that intends to become a tree.

ACRN is a house of people building — software, companies, side quests, whatever's keeping us up at night. We share a roof, a kitchen, a whiteboard, and the unreasonable belief that the thing we're working on is going to work.

No mission statement. No deck. Just five people, one unit on Oak Street, and a standing rule that you can knock on any door when you're stuck.

Make the thing

Shipped beats perfect. The demo is the argument. Talk less about it at dinner, show it after.

Doors open

Stuck on a bug, a pitch, a decision? Knock. The house debugs together — that's the whole point.

Leave it better

The kitchen, the codebase, the group chat. Small upkeep, no ego, clean as you go.

Plant for later

Play long games. Help with no scoreboard. Acorns don't grow on a quarterly timeline.
