/* ==========================================================================
   BRISK WALNUT STUDIO — warm paper design system
   Direction: a quiet home-studio notebook. Warm paper ground, walnut-brown
   type and bands, deep teal as the single accent. Audio motifs throughout:
   level-meter micro-labels, a waveform rule under headings, a running
   record-clock readout in the hero.
   Fonts: DM Serif Display (display) / Work Sans (body) / system mono (readouts)

   Contrast (WCAG, measured):
     body  #1C2742 on paper #FBF3EF ........ 12.11:1
     muted #545C78 on paper #FBF3EF ........  6.22:1  (on #F6E6DF: 5.61:1)
