   Garth Coates Solicitors — site styles
   Hand-written CSS (no build step), so the site deploys on Plesk with PHP only.

   Tokens (from the subject: a British passport and a London street)
   ink     passport navy — headings, hero, footer
   stone   Portland stone / visa-page paper — quiet section bands
   brass   door-plate brass and passport foil — the skyline, rules, focus (used sparingly)
   verified green — only for "checked against GOV.UK" status

   The one bold element: an engraved London skyline at the foot of the home
   page hero, drawn in brass hairlines. Everything else stays quiet.
