Our Construction P̴r̷o̶c̸e̷s̴s̸
01
Site Preparation
We begin by clearing the land and establishing a perfectly level foundation. The ground must be still. Utterly still. No wind. No tremors. No breath.
02
Framework Assembly
Our master builders carefully position each card at precise angles, creating load-bearing structures that defy conventional physics and several laws of thermodynamics.
03
Interior F̴i̷n̶i̸s̷h̸i̶n̷g̸
Walls are papered with aces and kings. Ceilings adorned with jokers. The faces watch. They always watch. Red and black and red and black and r̸e̷d̶ a̴n̷d̸ b̶l̷a̸c̷k̶ a̴n̷d̸
04
Quality Assurance
Before delivery, each property undergoes rigorous testing for stability, weather resistance, and resistance to the inevitable collapse that awaits all things built from wishes and paper and lies.

Charles Algernon
Chief Executive Officer
Charles founded Algernon Properties in 19██ after a career in conventional construction left him feeling... left him... we're sorry, we cannot quite recall what left him feeling. His vision transformed the industry and also transformed something else, something we used to know the word for.
He enjoys golf and reading and watching the structures t̸r̷e̶m̸b̷l̴e̸ i̶n̷ t̴h̷e̸ m̶o̸o̷n̶l̴i̸g̷h̸t̶.
Dr. Margaret ████████
Director of Structural Integrity
Dr. ████████ holds advanced degrees in architectural engineering and materials science from prestigious universities whose names we can no longer pronounce. She has pioneered numerous innovations in card-based construction techniques.
Her research papers include "Lateral Load Distribution in Fifty-Two Unit Systems" and "Why Do They Keep F̴a̷l̶l̸i̷n̶g̸ Why Won't They S̶t̷o̸p̴ F̶a̸l̷l̴i̶n̷g̸"

"I purchased a unit in Meridian Towers last spring. The views are spectacular. The building sways gently in strong winds which the sales team assures me is normal and safe and n̸o̷r̶m̸a̷l̴ a̶n̷d̸ s̴a̷f̶e̸ a̷n̸d̶ why is everything made of c̴a̷r̶d̸s̷"

"Living here has been a dream. Or possibly a nightmare. We can no longer distinguish between the two states. The queen of hearts watches us sleep. We are happy. We must be happy. We p̸a̷i̶d̸ s̴o̶ m̷u̸c̶h̷ m̴o̸n̷e̶y̸."
