   Nevora Sidewalk Manhattan: site stylesheet
   Hand-written, no framework. Mobile-first.

   Palette is built around the logo: its yellow and charcoal are the US
   warning-sign colours, so the type (Overpass, derived from highway signage)
   and the layout (concrete flags separated by 2px expansion joints) come from
   the same street vocabulary. Yellow is a surface/accent colour only; it is
   never used for text on a light background (1.7:1).
