## Design Tokens
```css
:root {

--font-body: "Lato", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```
Color area ratio: Background #FFFFFF (~47%) · Surface #F5F6F3 (~16%) · Text #18221D (~8%) · Muted Text #6B716D (~7%) · Accent #35BD3F (~22%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.
