Lab Architect · For Life
For the rest
of your day.
A building is designed around how people actually live. I design these apps the same way: a budget you and your partner can share, the music library you already own, the podcasts you follow, a quiet place for poetry, and the flowers in season for ikebana.
Small, careful apps, made to be used every day.
Apps for life
BudgetLab+
Give your money a plan. Get to Balanced.
A zero-based budget for you and your partner. Plan this month's income line by line until nothing is left to plan, give each new transaction a home as it arrives, and share one budget on your phone and the web.
MusicLab+
Your music server, smarter playlists.
Plays the library you host on your own Navidrome server, with Daily Mixes built from what you love, endless radio from any song, synced lyrics, thumbs up and down, and CarPlay. No account, no tracking.
LabCast+
Every podcast. Audio and video.
Follows your podcasts and video podcasts in one place, plays live radio, and carries your library to CarPlay and Apple TV, with your shows and Up Next kept in step over iCloud. No account, no tracking.
Tanka Poems
Sacred Japanese poetry, made for unhurried reading.
Read 84 tanka poems in English and romanized Japanese with four offline narrators, synchronized read-along highlighting, and contemplative photography from Japan.
BloomLab+
Ikebana by the season.
Shows the stems in bloom and at the market this month for your region, how each one works in a basket, a tall vase or a shallow dish, and how to condition it. Plan an arrangement with the Ikeru planner and keep your own vessels, garden and journal.
