/* Apex Steel Designs — site styles
   Visual language carried over from the first version of the site (full-bleed hero, light Montserrat
   display type, kicker labels, bordered cards, numbered process cards, dark closing band).
   Colors now follow the logo: steel blue (right leg / triangle) and steel gray (left leg) on deep navy.
   Single light theme by choice. */
