/* ============================================================ DeskDude - About / Contact Rebuild (standalone preview) Direction: Premium Utilitarian Minimalism / warm editorial. Warm bone monochrome canvas, off-black ink, muted pastel tags, flat 1px-bordered bento cards, serif editorial headlines. Deliberately NOT the homepage's dark "Ethereal Glass" look (no charcoal bg, no emerald accent, no Cabinet Grotesk, no 24px double-bezel rounding, no glow/gradient hero). Motion is restrained: a single static warm light pool behind the hero, and a gentle scroll-fade that defaults to fully visible so nothing breaks if JS fails to run.
