/**
 * BTI College — brand & UX layer.
 * Palette derived from the BTI logo (maroon + gold), WCAG-AA checked.
 *
 * Strategy: the maroon structural colour (buttons, links, borders, top bar) is
 * applied site-wide through the theme's Redux colour options. This file adds the
 * GOLD accents accessibly — gold only ever sits on maroon, or as a button/CTA
 * background paired with dark text. Gold is never used as text on white
 * (that fails contrast); the readable "gold-deep" is used for gold-coloured text.
