/* ==========================================================================
   GSV Synergy Partners — design system

   Restrained consulting palette taken from the logo: deep navy ink and white,
   with the logo green as the single accent (calls to action, rules, ticks,
   stat figures). A refined serif carries headlines; a clean sans carries text.
   Generous white space; one card style.

   Every colour, radius and type step is a token below. Change them here.
