   Lizben — Architecture & Planning
   Design system: editorial-minimal. Near-monochrome ink/bone ground with the
   Lizben brand blues used sparingly as accent. Cormorant Garamond carries the
   editorial voice; Inter carries structure.

   All asset paths are RELATIVE so the site can be served from a subfolder
   (e.g. /new/) or from the domain root without modification.
