The system behind the site.
A single visual language for the website, the PDF CV, the GitHub avatar, and the email signature. Quietly engineered. Built around the dawn — "Fajri" — as accent.

Use the lockup by default. Drop to the glyph for square spaces (avatars, favicons). The monogram and terminal mark are for personality moments — speaker decks, business cards, README headers.
