/* ==========================================================================
   Cornerstone Agility — "The Working Blueprint" design system (v3 rebuild)
   --------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Concept: the firm's own metaphor — cornerstone, blueprint, architecture —
   rendered literally. Light "drafting paper" surfaces, one saturated brand
   blue doing all the color work, hairline rules with a cornerstone tick,
   halftone dot texture from the white-paper design system, and a dark
   blueprint-sheet hero where all the visual boldness is spent.

   Deliberately avoided (per brief §7): all-caps eyebrows on every heading,
   identical rounded soft-shadow cards, arrows appended to links, numbered
   markers on non-sequences, cream/terracotta/serif and near-black/acid trends.

   Typefaces (2): Archivo (display, expanded widths) + IBM Plex Sans (body/UI).
   Mobile-first: authored at 375px and enhanced upward.
