/* ============================================================================
   MERIDIAN — Concept 01 for Vader Barclay Consulting
   The Editorial Institution.

   Wholly self-contained: this file carries its own reset, tokens, type system
   and components. It shares nothing with the other five concepts.

   Typeface system : Fraunces (display, optical-size axis) + Inter Tight
   Colour          : deep navy alternating with warm parchment and dusty light
   Accent          : antique brass
   Grid            : editorial magazine — hanging labels, asymmetric measures
   Responsiveness  : fluid only. No viewport breakpoints; container queries
                     handle every component that changes shape.
