   Greige editorial architecture: one hue, three band values plus one dark
   inversion. Montserrat everywhere, every heading weight 400, sentence case
   with a terminal full stop. Scale carries hierarchy, never weight.
   Motion budget is the reference's: an 800ms load settle, a 6px header
   settle, 500ms image hovers. One addition: structural hairlines draw.
