Shadows.

Warm-tinted, never blue. Three levels. Cards stay flat at rest; --shadow-2 appears on hover with a 1px lift.

shadow-1

Almost nothing — pressed surfaces.

shadow-2

Card lift on hover.

shadow-3

Modals only.

All shadows use rgba(31, 30, 26, …) — warm-tinted, derived from the ink color. Never rgba(0,0,0,…).
