   FIVE TOWNS - GLOBAL STYLESHEET
   Design language: The Potteries. Fired clay, stoneware, kiln warmth,
   and the cobalt/oxide glazes historically associated with Staffordshire
   ceramics (Wedgwood jasperware blue) - used sparingly as the single
   accent, against a warm stone and near-black palette. Plot-line hairline
   rules stand in for the property boundaries at the heart of the business.
