/* ==========================================================================
   THE CURVE COLLECTIVE — Working Palette (icon-derived, July 2026)
   Text/ink: Oxblood · Surfaces: Linen (primary) / Mist (cool secondary)
   Shapes: Claret (icon & shape fills) / Pine (deep-green counterweight block)
   Accent: Vermilion (sparing, never decorative). Dove & Sage set aside.
   Voice: quietly provocative, never urgent. Whitespace is part of the brand.
