   Palette   : ink (near-black) + bone (off-white) + ONE saturated accent,
               vermilion #ff5a1f. No second accent anywhere on the site.
   Type      : Bricolage Grotesque (display) + Archivo (body). No serif.
               Emphasis is italic/bold of the SAME family, never a second face.
   Radius    : documented 4-step scale, applied everywhere.
                 --r-lg 20px  large plates / hero art
                 --r-md 14px  cards, tiles, media
                 --r-sm 10px  chips, inputs, small surfaces
                 --r-pill     buttons and badges ONLY
   Theme     : dark by default, real light mode via prefers-color-scheme.
               One theme per page load. Sections never invert mid-scroll.
   Motion    : every animation is motivated. No scroll listeners anywhere,
               IntersectionObserver and CSS scroll-driven animation only.
