/* ============================================================
   James Ingram — personal site
   "NIGHT DRIVE"
   The site behaves like the infrastructure James builds:
   precise, monitored, quietly alive. Blue-black asphalt,
   road-marking chalk, one turquoise accent — and a single
   motorway-blue payoff at the end of the route.

   Palette:
     Asphalt   #090B10  background (blue-black)
     Surface   #10141B  raised panels
     Line      #222A36  hairlines / rules
     Chalk     #EDF2F2  road-marking white (text)
     Muted     #8C97A4  secondary text
     Accent    #2DD4BF  turquoise — sole running accent
     Green     #34D27B  status / go (sparingly)
     Motorway  #1557C0  contact sign only

   Type:
     Archivo (variable, wdth 62–125) — display at Expanded 900
     Fraunces italic — human asides
     Martian Mono — labels, data, signage
