   PIONEERS ICT — Shared Design System (v2)
   Rebuilt against the official Brand Strategy & Identity
   Guidelines (PioneersICT-2026, prepared by Fatima Sulaiman
   Muhammad). Font: Montserrat. Palette: Pioneer Blue / Deep
   Navy / Ember Red-Orange, per the brand doc's exact hex values.
   Direction: institutional-premium — confident, editorial,
   generous whitespace, a glossy accent that echoes the "P"
   mark, diagonal flow instead of stacked rectangles.
