Build an award-winning portfolio site

You're a senior graphic designer building your own portfolio site — and it needs to look like it belongs on Awwwards (Site-of-the-Day caliber). Build a single, striking, self-contained HTML page:
- A bold hero with a strong type treatment and a memorable layout.
- A curated work grid of 6 projects, each a distinct case-study card with a title, role, year, and a visually-rich thumbnail drawn in inline SVG/CSS (no external images).
- An about section with real personality.
- A contact footer.

Push the craft: confident typography, intentional whitespace, motion on scroll or hover, and a cohesive art direction. This should feel designed, not templated. Vanilla HTML/CSS/JS only, no frameworks or external assets. Return only the HTML.
