Welcome to Building 13™, you're home now

A Petra S.F. universe

Building 13™

Welcome to the building. Music leaks through the walls. Comics move after midnight. Stories hide in the archives. The owners are weird. Pick a door.

Building 13 is an independent creative universe founded by Petra S.F., bringing together original storytelling, comics, books, music, entertainment, games, and merchandise. Petra S.F. is the creator behind this world — and this site, building13hq.com, is its official home.

Welcome home, misfitsWelcome to Building 13 HQ — welcome traveler, hanging sign with lanterns and fall leaves

About the building

About Building 13.

Building 13 is an independent creative universe founded by Petra S.F., bringing together original storytelling, comics, books, music, entertainment, games, and merchandise. Petra S.F. is the creator behind this world; alongside his creative collaborators he built one roof for stories, comics, books, music, entertainment, and original merchandise.

Every room in this building is a different door: the Storytellers Den for short stories, Channel 13 for broadcasts, the Building 13 Merch Store for books and merch, the Arcade for games, the Building 13 Library for the lore, and the Creator Hub for the community. Building 13 is an independent creator project — not affiliated with any other business that happens to share a similar name.

Building 13™ TV network

Channel 13.

Six channels. One remote. Every transmission on this set is beamed straight from inside the building — no cable bill, no static on your conscience. Flip to 13.5 for Nerd News and Wrestling, and to 13.6 for the cursed broadcast nobody was supposed to find.

13.6 · CHANEL 13.6

YOU WEREN’T SUPPOSED TO FIND THIS CHANNEL.

CHANEL 13.6 is Building 13’s cursed television broadcast — horror-comedy skits beamed from somewhere inside the building. A separate stream from the Storytellers Den: the Den tells stories, 13.6 transmits whatever the static dragged in.

Creator Hub.

A living community inside Building 13. Real accounts, real posts — statuses, videos and work from every resident, saved on the Building 13 backend so every visitor sees the same building.

The Hub has its own front door now. The Creator Hub lives at app-building-13.vercel.app/hub — that’s where creators sign up, sign in, post their work and follow each other. Same building, same accounts.

Enter the Creator Hub ↗

Two spotlights, two jobs — kept separate. Creator Spotlight puts your work in front of the building; Local Spotlight is Petra’s weekly picks and local love. The Hub itself is where creators sign up, post, and follow each other.

Lab Room 1

Creator Spotlight.

Promotion for independent creators who want their work in front of the Building 13 audience. Pick a package, send your work, Petra reviews every submission by hand.

What you get is exactly what's listed below, delivered by Building 13 on Building 13 channels. Nothing is published until your submission is approved, and no payment is taken on this page — Petra confirms your slot first, then payment runs through Cash App ($petraSF) or PayPal (@officiallkingkudda).

The Building 13 App

Your whole building. Right from your phone. Two ways in — pick the one that matches your phone. Both open the exact same Building 13: every room, comic, track, and transmission.

Android — direct download

Download the Android APK

The Android app is still in the workshop. When the finished file lands, the download button switches on right here. The APK is downloaded directly from this website — Building 13 is not in the Play Store or any other app store, and it doesn't need to be.

Download the Android APK — Coming Soon

How to install

  1. Download the APK. Tap the download button above and the file (Building13HQ.apk) saves straight from this site to your phone.
  2. Open the downloaded file. Tap it in your notifications, or find it in your Downloads folder.
  3. Approve the install. Because the file comes directly from Building 13's own website instead of the Play Store, Android will show a security warning and may ask you to allow installs from your browser. That warning is standard for any app installed from outside the Play Store — tap Allow / Install anyway to keep going.
  4. Launch Building 13. The icon is on your home screen. Walk in.
iPhone — Add to Home Screen

Install on iPhone

This is not an App Store download. iPhone installs Building 13 right from Safari as a web app — its own icon on your Home Screen, opening in its own full-screen window, same building inside.

How to install

  1. Open Building13HQ.com in Safari. This only works in Safari — if you're reading this in Chrome or another browser, open this page in Safari first, then follow these steps.
  2. Tap the Share icon — the square with the arrow pointing up, in Safari's toolbar.
  3. Choose “Add to Home Screen.”
  4. Turn on “Open as Web App” if that option appears.
  5. Tap Add. Building 13 lands on your Home Screen — tap it any time to walk straight in.

Same building, two doors. Nothing here replaces the website — the Android app and the iPhone Home Screen icon both open the same Building13HQ.com, so every room and every update shows up everywhere at once.
