 * Two colours only: warm near-black ink + one amber accent, on a warm off-white.
 * Greys are tints of the ink. No shadows, no pills: 3px corners, 1px borders.
 * Contrast (WCAG 2.x): ink on bg 16.4:1 · muted on bg 6.2:1 · ink on amber 5.0:1 (buttons)
 *   · amber vs bg 3.25:1 (borders/underlines only — amber is never used as text on light backgrounds).
