Abstract: AUB's Architecture of Existence From Not-Nothing to Geometric Existence This document presents a minimal, definition-first framework for understanding existence itself. Rather than beginning with matter, energy, space, or time, it defines reality as the set of configurations capable of sustaining coherent, returnable structure under lawful geometric constraints. Existence is treated not as a process, substance, or origin story, but as an admissibility condition: a configuration either satisfies the requirements for persistence, or it collapses. From this perspective, collapse and failure are the default, and structure appears only where recursion successfully closes. The architecture inverts traditional metaphysics by replacing causal narratives with constraint satisfaction. Physics, chemistry, life, and consciousness are understood as emergent descriptions of the same underlying criterion, rather than separate ontological categories. This work serves as a philosophical and conceptual foundation for the Octomorphic Framework. It is not an engineering manual or applied model, but a compact statement of what it means for anything to exist at all. Canonical link:https://zenodo.org/records/17965716
