   RENEGADE ASCENT
   Broadsheet vernacular: rules, not shadows. Flat fills, not gradients.
   Verdana (display) over Roboto (text). Cream ground, gold and crimson from the mark.

   Deliberately excluded per brief: gradients, drop shadows, pure white,
   rainbow or neon color, bento grids, terminal frames, checkmark bullets,
   colored left stripes, animated arrows, purple/black, emoji, icon sets,
   glass effects, and the current default typefaces.
