   INSPIRE TALENT HUB — HOMEPAGE (rebuilt from scratch)
   Self-contained layout system for index.html only. Every class is prefixed
   `hm-` so this file cannot affect any other page. It uses the site's existing
   design tokens (gold palette, dark surfaces) and brand type system:
     headings  → Cormorant Garamond   (--font-family-display)
     reading   → EB Garamond          (--font-family-read)
     UI + nums → Inter                (--font-family-body / --font-family-num)
   Mobile-first; scales up with min-width queries. 8-point spacing throughout.
