/* ============================================================
   SPARZAN — redesign.css
   Redesign-v2 stylesheet. Everything that follows the dark→light
   rhythm brief lives here so the legacy light hero + interior
   pages keep rendering untouched while the redesign is rolled
   out phase by phase. Loaded AFTER components.css so specificity
   just works.

   Sections in build order (matches brief §8):
   §8.1   Dark hero (home)
   §8.2   Dark tech-stack marquee
   §8.3   Light proof band + stats + testimonial carousel
   §8.4   Scroll-scrubbed positioning statement
   §8.5   Expanding capability carousel
   §8.6   Pinned horizontal workflow (dark)
   §8.7   Selected work / case studies teaser (light)
   §8.8   Bento Why grid (light)
   §8.9   Dark final CTA
   §8.10  Footer polish
