Principles

Inkwell keeps the system quiet so content and workflow state carry the page. It favors editorial headings, understated surfaces, and a single accent color.

Use --paper for panels, --ivory for the page, and --accent only where users need a strong interaction cue.

Rule
If a value exists in tokens.css, reference the token instead of hardcoding a matching color or spacing value.

Application

Long-form pages should use narrow reading widths, generous section spacing, and links with the built-in Inkwell underline style.
