/* =============================================================================
   Indus Equity Advisors — Design System v2
   -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Light institutional / editorial. Warm ivory paper, deep green ink, a single
   bronze accent. Serif display (Fraunces) + quiet humanist sans (Instrument
   Sans). Hairline rules, engraved borders, and restrained, purposeful motion:
   masked line reveals, drawing rules, stroke-drawn icons that redraw on hover.

   Organization:
     1.  Design tokens
     2.  Reset & base
     3.  Typography utilities
     4.  Layout primitives
     5.  Header / nav / scroll progress
     6.  Buttons & links
     7.  Hero + ledger card + ticker
     8.  Sections: services, track record, process, about/team,
         sectors, reports, FAQ, contact, footer
     9.  Motion system + prefers-reduced-motion
     10. Responsive
