Style guide

Every colour token, type size and base component, in one place. This route is for design review only — it carries no marketing copy and isn't linked from the site.

Sampled from the logo. Leaf and Sky fail WCAG contrast on Ground and are decorative only — never text, never a button background, never a meaningful border.
