This is a dark, motion-focused developer portfolio for Aristide Benoist. The design DNA is built on a deep monochromatic dark background (#1e1e1e) with light sage ink (#bacbc2) and occasional golden accents (#cc9933). It features extreme typographic scale using a slab-serif for display and a grotesque-sans for body text, with tight negative tracking on massive headlines. The layout is minimalist and cinematic, often centering a horizontal carousel of vertical black-and-white photographs. Critical design constraints: avoid any use of rounded corners, do not add decorative drop shadows or complex patterns, and never use more than two primary ink colors. Transitions should be smooth, using a 0.5s cubic-bezier timing function.
