/* =============================================================================
Cordle Law — "Ledger" design system
One stylesheet. Cormorant Garamond (display serif, incl. italic) + Mulish (body/UI).
Forked from the Suncoast Law "editorial" system: same structure, component set,
token approach and accessibility behaviours — re-skinned in Cordle's brand.
============================================================================
MINI STYLE GUIDE — tokens and components (markup is exact)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rules of the house: the page reads like a well-set legal document. Hairlines
(1px var(--rule)), 2px radii, no pill buttons, no shadow stacks, a narrow
centred measure for running text. Display type is Cormorant Garamond; UI and
body are Mulish.
COLOUR TOKENS
--navy #10284D ink: headings, body text, dark bands, primary buttons
--navy-logo #003882 the logotype blue (monogram, footer mark surround)
--navy-deep #08243E photo scrim / deepest band
--accent #015989 the 01–04 numerals, links, focus ring, rules (7.4:1 on white)
--accent-deep#013F61 link / button hover
--gold #D1BB90 RULES AND FILLS ONLY — never text, never on light.
In this build gold appears in exactly two places:
the eyebrow rule above every section title, and the
hairline in the header lockup (as in the firm's banner).
--paper #F7F6F2 warm off-white band ground
--white #FFFFFF plates and the alternate band
--rule #DEDCD4 hairlines on light --rule-strong #C3C0B5
--rule-on-dark rgba(255,255,255,.16)
--text #1C2D4A body copy --text-muted #4E5B70 (6.9:1 on white)
--text-on-dark #F4F3EF --text-on-dark-muted #BFCBDD (9:1 on navy)
Band rhythm: hero (paper) → about (white) → practice (paper) → community
(white) → contact (paper) → footer (navy).
TYPE TOKENS
--font-display "Cormorant Garamond" — h1–h4, the numerals, the pledge line.
--font-body "Mulish" — everything else, including the lockup is NOT Mulish
(the wordmark is Cormorant, letterspaced, uppercase).
--fs-display/-h1/-h2/-h3/-h4/-lead/-body/-small/-tiny/-eyebrow, all clamped.
--measure 38rem — the narrow running-text column.
HEADER LOCKUP (monogram | gold hairline | CORDLE LAW)
Cordle Law
SECTION HEAD (eyebrow carries the gold rule above the title)
About
Heading
One or two sentences.
.section__head--wide drops the narrow measure cap on the lead.
HERO (photo band + white plate overlapping its bottom edge)
LEDGER ENTRIES (the Areas of Expertise — numbered, hairline-separated)
-
01.
Numerals: Cormorant italic in --accent, hanging in the left margin at ≥760px.
.ledger__text sets two text columns at ≥1024px; one below that.
ROSTER (community and teaching — org left, role right, hairline rows)
PLEDGE PLATE (navy, the firm's closing line, above the contact details)
PROSE (.prose) — running text: h2, h3, p, ul, ol, dl, a, strong, hr, .callout,
.disclaimer. No blockquotes: firm copy must never read as a testimonial.
DETAILS LIST (label / value pairs) — credentials, contact details
.details--stack for dt over dd.
BUTTONS .btn (navy fill) · .btn--secondary (outline) · .btn--ghost
.btn--small · .btn--block · .btn-row wraps them.
CARDS .card-grid / .card (+ .card--link, .card--boxed) — kept from the
parent system for future inner pages; the homepage uses .ledger.
FORMS .form > .form-grid > .field (+ .field--full, --check, --hp, --invalid),
.form__actions, .form__note, .form__status(--success|--error).
FAQ .faq > details > summary + div.
MAP
404 .not-found (+ .not-found__code).
UTILITIES .container, .container--narrow, .section, .section--tight,
.section--paper, .section--rule-top/-bottom, .eyebrow, .lead, .muted,
.small, .text-center, .on-dark, .visually-hidden, .skip-link.
LISTS: any / with list-style:none MUST carry role="list" so
Safari/VoiceOver keep announcing it as a list. Prose lists keep markers.
A11Y: WCAG AA everywhere, visible :focus-visible (accent on light, gold on
dark), 44px tap targets, prefers-reduced-motion and forced-colors honoured.
