Durham Beamer Theme
==================

Overview
--------
The Durham Beamer Theme is a content-first presentation theme for LaTeX Beamer,
designed for teaching, research, and long-form academic presentations.

Design Goals
------------
- Structural clarity without visual distraction
- Stable layout under dense textual and mathematical content
- Subtle pacing awareness for presenters
- Predictable behavior in long slide decks

Design Influences
-----------------
The design of this theme was informed by experience with existing Beamer themes.
In particular, the Metropolis theme influenced the conceptual use of section title
frames with progress indicators. The Durham theme is an independent implementation
and does not incorporate code from Metropolis or other themes.

Color Palette
-------------
The color palette used in this theme is inspired by the visual identity of Durham
University. This package is an independent academic contribution and is not an
official or endorsed Durham University presentation template.
