/* CASTL STUDIO — site styles, v2.1 (2026-10-17)
   Design language: the architect's drawing. The shield draws itself from drafting guides,
   the four services sit on a castle floor plan, and each service is proven with
   before / after / how slides. Palette and type follow the CASTL tokens; square corners, no shadows. */
