   CASE STUDY TEMPLATE
   ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
   Use this section as the layout reference for all future
   case study / project pages. When prompting Claude, say:
   "Format this page to match the Case Study Template in style.css"

   PAGE STRUCTURE (top to bottom):
   1.  .case-hero          — Centered hero: eyebrow + large h1 + italic tagline + subtitle + CTA btn
   2.  .case-meta          — 4-column project metadata row (label above value, border dividers)
   3.  .case-showcase      — Phone/mockup images + product logo side by side
   4.  .case-band          — Full-width bg-secondary band: .overview-grid (glass cards) + .case-stats (stat cards)
   5.  .marquee-wrap       — Scrolling team names marquee
   6.  .process-pipeline   — Glass card with icon steps + arrows (Research→Synthesis→…→Iteration)
   7.  .case-section       — Wrapper for each numbered content section:
         └─ .section-eyebrow  (e.g. "01  RESEARCH & DISCOVERY")
         └─ .content-row      (text-col + image-col, alternating .reverse for layout variety)
         └─ .content-full     (full-width text + image, e.g. deliverables)
   8.  .case-divider       — Thin horizontal rule between major sections
   9.  Reflection section  — .reflection-grid with .reflection-card glass cards
                             (.reflection-card--wide spans full width for main skills block)

   KEY CLASSES:
   .case-eyebrow       small uppercase label above hero h1
   .case-tagline       italic subheading under h1
   .case-meta          project info row
   .case-band          full-bleed colored background section
   .overview-card      glass card (problem, role, etc.)
   .stat-card          large-number metric card
   .case-section       wrapper for a numbered section
   .section-eyebrow    "01  SECTION NAME" label
   .section-num        numbered pill badge
   .content-row        two-column text + image layout
   .content-row.reverse  flips image to left
   .content-full       single-column full-width content
   .reflection-card    glass card for reflection/skills blocks
   .reflection-card--wide  spans full grid width
   .proto-compare      lo-fi } hi-fi comparison layout
   .persona-carousel   swipeable image carousel
   .process-pipeline   horizontal step pipeline with icons
