/* ===========================================================
The Mortgage Dock — Shared Site Styles v2
Aligned to the locked TMD Brand Kit (2026-08-05).
For sub-pages: /florida-keys/, /investors/, /loan-programs/, /blog/, etc.
CHANGES FROM v1
- Palette snapped to the locked brand kit values.
- Added Keys Water #2EC4B6 (the tagline signature) and Sand #F4EDE0.
- Body font moved from Inter to DM Sans. DM Mono added for figures.
- Fixed contrast failures: gold buttons had white text at 2.4:1 (unreadable).
Gold now carries navy text at 7.0:1. Teal buttons use an accessible deep
teal at 5.3:1 instead of white-on-#1A9B8A at 3.4:1.
- Hardcoded hero and glow colors replaced with tokens.
- Mobile nav no longer hides every link. It scrolls instead.
