/* ============================================================
   ALT DESIGN DIRECTION B — "Zolvo"
   Type, spacing and layout grammar after zolvo.com: dark warm bands
   alternating with cream sections, centred headings in a light geometric
   sans where the closing phrase drops into Playfair Display italic,
   burnt-amber buttons with a trailing arrow, and a "see your numbers"
   panel on the home page.
   Palette derived from the firm's logo (navy #132066 · royal #283993 ·
   amber #ea9d43), pushed to Zolvo's darker, warmer register.
   Zolvo's own site runs small; this one does not. Base type is 19px and
   nothing on the page is set below 16px, because a lot of these readers
   are over 60 and reading a tax page on a phone.
