/* ==========================================================================
   base.css — the design contract for the Peterson Agencies careers site.
   Owner: the orchestrator. Build agents: LINK this first, never edit it.
   Page sections go in site.css; the application flow goes in apply.css.

   Direction (decided 2026-09-20, LN-0116): Institutional Navy, LIGHT mode,
   Inter, square and buttoned-up, thin lines, a restrained frosted-glass touch.
   Not round, not bubbly, no gradients-as-decoration, no drop-shadow stacks.
