How to Use My Own HTML & CSS for Drupal
Drupal developers experienced in HTML and CSS can make modifications to any installed themes. In some other content management systems, such as WordPress, administrators can make changes to the site directly from the administrator dashboard. Unfortunately, this is not the case in Drupal, as you'll have to access your style files directly on your server to make design changes.

Sign in to your Drupal site and click on "Configuration." Click on "Development" then "Maintenance." Check the box next to "Put site into maintenance mode." Click on "Save." This is optional but recommended if you are making style changes to a live site. When the site is in maintenance mode, only logged-in administrators can view it.

Log in to your Web hosting panel and open your host's file manager. Browse to your Drupal site's directory and open the "Sites" folder, and then open "All." Open the "Themes" folder and locate the theme you want to modify. Look for a template or style folder and open it.
Alternatively, you can access your files using an FTP management program like FileZilla, Coffee Cup FTP or Smart FTP.
