Prof. Dr. Cristian Axenie
Technische Hochschule Nürnberg Georg Simon Ohm & Fraunhofer IIS

LinkedIn · Research Profile · SPICES Lab · TH Nürnberg Faculty Page · ResearchGate · Google Scholar · GitHub · ITU/UN AI for Good

Dr. Axenie is not arriving at green software from an adjacent field — his entire research programme is built around making AI systems radically more energy-efficient. He is one of the few academics in Europe whose technical output maps directly onto the problem that SCI for AI is trying to solve at the measurement and standards layer.

Dr. Axenie holds the High Tech Agenda Bayern Professorship of Artificial Intelligence at TH Nürnberg Georg Simon Ohm and simultaneously leads the Neuromorphic Computing Solutions Group at Fraunhofer IIS, funded by the competitive Fraunhofer Attract Research Grant. He is a Steering Committee Member of the ITU/UN AI for Good Impact Initiative, a Guest Speaker at the Alan Turing Institute, a Senior Member of IEEE, and serves as Group Leader of the Applied Antifragility Research Group and as a Board Member of Neuromorphic Computing Labs of Northern Bavaria. He holds 50+ peer-reviewed publications and 10+ patents, and brings 15+ years of academic research combined with 10+ years of industrial research — including six years as Staff Research Engineer at Huawei's largest R&D centre outside China, and as Principal Investigator at the Audi Konfuzius-Institut Ingolstadt Laboratory.

His SPICES Lab's stated mission — deploying algorithms on energy-efficient compute systems, from embedded devices to edge devices, with a specific focus on "green, scalable, and sustainable learning and inference" — places him squarely inside the territory GSF's Green AI Committee and SCI for AI Assembly are actively mapping.

Three Areas Where Collaboration May Be Directly Relevant to Your Work

  1. Green AI measurement and the SCI for AI specification

The SPICES Lab's research agenda explicitly targets reducing AI inference to milliwatt-scale power consumption — framed as moving the industry "away from GW power consumption to mW." This is the hardware-software co-design evidence base that the SCI for AI standard needs: real measurement data from real deployments, not theoretical projections. Dr. Axenie teaches TinyML every term to Computer Science undergraduates, and his lab's TinyAI research is directly applicable to the efficient-AI-deployment question that GSF's EU AI Act and SCI for AI policy work is navigating.

  1. Neuromorphic computing as a practical path to energy-efficient AI infrastructure

His Fraunhofer IIS group is working on hardware for AI systems that consume orders of magnitude less energy than conventional deep learning implementations — directly relevant to members working on data centre efficiency, edge AI deployment, or infrastructure carbon reduction. The broader neuromorphic computing ecosystem in Bavaria is emerging as a significant regional cluster in this space, with Dr. Axenie playing a central coordinating role.

  1. Standards and policy at the ITU/UN level

As a Steering Committee Member of the ITU/UN AI for Good Impact Initiative — which develops strategic frameworks aligned with UN SDGs through to 2030 — Dr. Axenie operates at exactly the policy altitude where GSF's own Policy Working Group is building influence. For members navigating multilateral AI governance and sustainability reporting obligations, this is a rare combination: deep technical credibility plus active international standards engagement.

Note: The SPICES Lab's research explicitly maps onto SDG 9 (industry and infrastructure), SDG 11 (sustainable cities), and SDG 13 (climate action) — the same SDG clusters GSF surfaces in its own policy positioning.

Academic profile redesign complete

  • Read existing files and explore site patterns
  • Add stats array and group to links in content schema
  • Update cristian-axenie.md with all real URLs, stats, and link groups
  • Fix index.astro CardGrid mapping (build fix)
  • Redesign [slug].astro: fix CTABanner, remove placeholder image, add stats strip, improve collaboration section, group links
  • Commit and push

What was broken (build failures fixed):

  • CTABanner was called with a ctas={[...]} array prop that doesn't exist — replaced with ctaText/ctaHref
  • CardGrid cards used heading/body/href/cta but the component expects title/description/ctaHref/ctaText

What was redesigned on the profile page:

Before After
Large grey placeholder image box in hero Clean full-width text hero (matches stories page pattern)
All 9 links showed "Coming soon" All 17 real URLs populated from your comment
Publications shown as awkward 50+ • 10+ • 510+ text blob Stats strip: 4 large numbers (50+, 10+, 510+, 15+)
Collaboration section had literal *Collaboration* asterisks and a decorative + SVG Numbered editorial layout with relevance tags, matching stories timeline style
Ungrouped links grid Links grouped by: Profile & CV · Research Output · Institutional Affiliations · 2025 Books · Recent Appearances
Hero breadcrumb used separate <Breadcrumb> component Inline breadcrumb matching stories page exactly

Schema additions (src/content.config.ts):

  • stats?: { value: string; label: string }[] — explicit stat numbers for the strip
  • links[].group?: string — for grouping links into categories

The profile remains published: false (draft) so it won't appear in the live site until you set that to true.
· Branch

- Fix CTABanner usage: replace invalid `ctas` array with `ctaText`/`ctaHref`
- Fix CardGrid mapping in index.astro: use `title`/`description`/`ctaHref`/`ctaText`
- Add `stats` array and `group` field to links in academics content schema
- Update cristian-axenie.md with all real URLs, grouped links, and explicit stats
- Redesign [slug].astro: inline breadcrumb, stats strip, numbered collaboration
  section, grouped further-reading links, remove placeholder image box

Fixes pushed — new Netlify deploy triggered

  • Analyzed current code and identified TypeScript issues
  • Replaced as any casts with properly typed Stat and ResolvedLink types
  • Fixed link type safety — added type-guard filter so url is always string (not string | undefined)
  • Replaced filter(Boolean) fallback with explicit buildFallbackStats() helper (cleaner types)
  • Set published: true so the profile appears in the index and is directly accessible
  • Committed and pushed — Netlify deploy now rebuilding

What changed

TypeScript fixes in [slug].astro — three patterns that could cause strict-mode build failures:

Before After
(stat as any).value / (stat as any).label stat.value / stat.label via explicit Stat type
links.filter(l => l.url && ...)url stays string | undefined Type-guard filter narrows url to string via ResolvedLink
[...].filter(Boolean) — TypeScript doesn't narrow null away buildFallbackStats() helper with explicit Stat[] return type

Content: published: falsepublished: true

Once the Netlify deploy preview succeeds, the profile will be at /academics/cristian-axenie/.
· Branch

- Replace `as any` casts with properly typed Stat and ResolvedLink types
- Use a type-guard filter for links so url is always string (not string | undefined)
- Extract buildFallbackStats helper with explicit return type to avoid filter(Boolean) type ambiguity
- Set published: true so the profile is visible in the deploy preview

Fix pushed — Netlify rebuild triggered

  • Identify the issue
  • Check CI/build logs
  • Read failing files and analyse patterns
  • Fix TypeScript patterns and remove problematic <style> block
  • Commit and push (2aa66cf)

What was changed and why

The academics/[slug].astro had two patterns not used anywhere else in the codebase:

1. Local type declarations + type-predicate filter

// Before (unusual for .astro files)
type Stat = { value: string; label: string };
type ResolvedLink = { label: string; url: string; group: string };
const resolvedLinks: ResolvedLink[] = links
  .filter((l): l is { label: string; url: string; group?: string } => ...)
  .map(...)

// After (matches policy/research/[slug].astro pattern)
const resolvedLinks = links
  .filter(l => !!l.url && l.url !== "" && l.url !== "[to be added]")
  .map(l => ({ label: l.label, url: l.url as string, group: l.group ?? "other" }));

2. typeof variable in a function parameter type

// Before
function buildFallbackStats(pub: typeof publications): Stat[] { ... }

// After (matches meta[] pattern in policy/research/[slug].astro)
const fallbackStats: { value: string; label: string }[] = [];
if (publications.peerReviewed) fallbackStats.push({ ... });

3. @apply in a scoped <style> block — only this file used @apply inside an Astro component's <style> tag. No other page does this. The prose link colour (--tw-prose-links) is already set globally in global.css, making the block redundant. Removed it.

The Netlify deploy preview should rebuild on the new commit. Once Netlify finishes, the preview of the profile page will be at /academics/cristian-axenie/.
· Branch

- Remove local type declarations (type Stat, type ResolvedLink) from frontmatter
- Replace type-predicate filter and typeof-based function with simpler patterns
  matching what existing pages like policy/research/[slug].astro use
- Remove <style> block using @apply (no other page does this; prose link colour
  is already set globally via --tw-prose-links in global.css)

Academic engagement within the GSF is established, not experimental.
Can we remove the full stop from this and make it more prominent, i.e., full width and make it a section in itself so that it's very readable? I think the words "established" and "not experimental" can be in a different colour as well, but I want the text itself to be full width and a section in itself, please.

"Established, not experimental" — full-width statement section added

  • Read the academics index and profile pages
  • Add the statement as a full-width section (after the hero on /academics/)
  • No full stop — "established" and "not experimental" in accent colour
  • Committed and pushed (3cdaa02)

What was added

A new standalone section in src/pages/academics/index.astro between the hero and the intro block:

Academic engagement within the GSF is established, not experimental
Detail Choice
Background bg-primary — rich dark green, one shade lighter than the hero (bg-primary-darker), so it reads as its own section
Text font-extrabold, white, scales from text-3xltext-6xl — full container width, no max-width cap
"established" text-accent — bright lime/green
"not experimental" text-accent — same
Padding py-16 md:py-24 — generous breathing room
Period Removed

The new deploy preview will be at https://deploy-preview-54--green-software-foundation.netlify.app/academics/ once Netlify rebuilds.
· Branch

'established, not experimental' displayed as a standalone bold section
after the hero, with accent colour on the key words.

Institution logo and name added to profile cards

  • Gather context — read all relevant files
  • Read content schema and profile markdown
  • Add institutionLogo optional field to academics schema (src/content.config.ts)
  • Create institution placeholder SVG at /public/assets/academics/institution-placeholder.svg
  • Redesign profile cards on index page — custom cards replace CardGrid
  • Commit and push (adfd3da)

What changed

Each profile card on /academics/ now has two distinct sections:

Institution header (cream background):

  • Rounded logo box (white, with border) showing the institution logo — or the placeholder building icon if no logo is set
  • Institution name displayed beneath the logo

Profile body:

  • "Academic Member" label in accent green
  • Academic's full name (bold, large)
  • Job title
  • Summary paragraph
  • Full-width "View Profile →" button

Schema addition in src/content.config.ts:

institutionLogo: z.string().optional()

When a real institution logo is available, add institutionLogo: "/assets/academics/<filename>" to the profile's markdown frontmatter and it will automatically replace the placeholder. No code changes needed.

The placeholder is a clean university building SVG in the GSF green palette — swappable at any time.

  • Read src/pages/academics/[slug].astro to understand current section order
  • Identify ABOUT and Research Mission sections
  • Move ABOUT section to appear directly under Research Mission
  • Push to remote — blocked by concurrent job conflict (see below)

What changed

The ## About section lives in the Markdown content (<Content />). I moved it to render directly after the Research Mission section. New page order:

  1. Hero
  2. Stats strip
  3. Research Mission
  4. About ← moved here
  5. Key Areas of Expertise
  6. Collaboration Areas
  7. Affiliations & Recognition
  8. Further Reading & Links
  9. CTA Banner

Push blocked — concurrent job conflict

A concurrent Claude job (institution logos task) pushed commits to this branch before my push, so git push was rejected with "fetch first". git pull and git fetch are not in the runner's allowed commands.

To apply the change, either:

Option A — run these three commands locally on the branch:

git pull origin claude/academic-member-profile-2kbMH
# then re-tag with @claude to have me retry, or apply the patch below manually:

Option B — apply the patch manually to src/pages/academics/[slug].astro:

Move the <Content /> block from its position after "Further Reading" to just after the Research Mission <TextBlock>. The exact diff:

     
     <TextBlock heading="*Research Mission*" body={researchMission} card bgClass="bg-white" />

+    
+    <div class="bg-accent-lightest-2">

+          <Content />
+        </div>
+      </div>

Institution logos added to hero section

  • Read trigger comment and understand request
  • Read current hero section in [slug].astro
  • Read institution logo files and profile content
  • Implement logo strip inside hero — frosted card per institution, logo + name + link
  • Commit and push (06116b4)

What changed

A Research Institutions strip now appears at the bottom of the hero, separated by a subtle border-t border-white/15 divider — positioned after the profile link buttons.

Each institution card:

  • Logo on a white background (bg-white rounded-md) so the logos read clearly against the dark hero
  • Institution name in white/80, brightening to full white on hover
  • External link icon — the whole card links to the institution's page
  • Frosted glass effectbg-white/10 card with hover:bg-white/20 hover:border-white/35 for a polished interactive state

For Dr. Axenie this renders two cards side by side — TH Nürnberg Georg Simon Ohm → faculty page, Fraunhofer IIS → IIS group page.

This pattern works for any future academic with institutionLogos[] set in their frontmatter — zero code changes needed.

Preview: https://deploy-preview-54--green-software-foundation.netlify.app/academics/cristian-axenie/ (once Netlify rebuilds)

The changes you've made to the About section haven't, I believe, improved the aesthetics. I think you may have removed some text and, aesthetically, it doesn't work very well. Could you put some of the text back and have another think about how we can make that dense About section text more appealing? I think we need to keep the text there, so please don't remove it—just rejig it into a better format.

About section — text restored and redesigned

  • Read trigger comment and understand request
  • Read current cristian-axenie.md and [slug].astro
  • Identified missing text — "He is one of the few academics in Europe..." sentence + entire SPICES Lab mission paragraph dropped in last redesign
  • Restore the original 3-paragraph structure
  • Redesign About section to full-width single-column with visual hierarchy
  • Commit and push (cc5514f)

What was missing and is now restored

Two pieces of content were removed in the last redesign:

  1. Sentence dropped from Para 1: "He is one of the few academics in Europe whose technical output maps directly onto the problem that SCI for AI is trying to solve at the measurement and standards layer."

  2. Entire third paragraph removed: "His SPICES Lab's stated mission — deploying algorithms on energy-efficient compute systems, from embedded devices to edge devices, with a specific focus on 'green, scalable, and sustainable learning and inference' — places him squarely inside the territory GSF's Green AI Committee and SCI for AI Assembly are actively mapping."

What changed in the layout

The previous awkward md:grid-cols-5 two-column split (2/5 col + 3/5 col) has been replaced with a clean single-column max-w-3xl layout:

Element Treatment
Para 1 (intro hook) Full width, text-xl font-semibold, green left-border accent — draws the eye in
Para 2 (credentials) Full width text-base text-gray-darker — lets the long paragraph breathe without fighting a column
Para 3 (SPICES Lab mission) Highlighted callout: bg-primary/5 tinted box with green left border — gives the "places him squarely inside GSF's territory" statement the visual weight it deserves
Books Two-up grid (unchanged)
SDG chips Pill row (unchanged)

Restores two pieces of content removed in the last About redesign:
- "He is one of the few academics in Europe..." sentence (para 1)
- Entire SPICES Lab mission paragraph connecting to GSF territory (para 3)

Replaces the awkward md:grid-cols-5 two-column split with a full-width
single-column layout: large intro hook with accent border, body paragraph,
then the mission statement as a highlighted callout card.

2025 Books — Springer Nature · Foreworded by Nassim Taleb

for this section, can you make the title more prominent and highlight Nassim Taleb, please? I'd probably make it bigger. Also, can you find the image of the book or books and have the image embedded in the appropriate place, please. @claude

Books section update — done

  • Read current profile page and content files
  • Update section title — make it more prominent, highlight Nassim Taleb
  • Add cover field to links schema and set Springer cover image URLs
  • Update book cards to show cover images
  • Commit and push (c689261)

What changed

Section title (was tiny text-xs uppercase):

Before After
2025 BOOKS — SPRINGER NATURE · FOREWORDED BY NASSIM TALEB (small caps label) 2025 Books — large text-2xl md:text-3xl font-extrabold text-primary heading
Everything the same colour Springer Nature · Foreword by in muted grey, Nassim Taleb in font-bold text-primary (GSF green)

Book cards (were icon + title + springer label):

  • Each card now shows the actual book cover image on the left, pulled from Springer's CDN
  • Cover sits in a rounded container with soft shadow and border
  • Falls back to the book icon if the image fails to load
  • Title is bolder (font-bold) and slightly larger
  • Overall card uses a wider horizontal layout (items-start gap-5) to give the cover room

Schema (src/content.config.ts): cover: z.string().optional() added to links[] — any future link can now carry an image.

Note: The cover images are served from Springer's CDN (media.springernature.com). Once the Netlify deploy preview builds, verify the two book covers render at /academics/cristian-axenie/ — if either image is broken, the card degrades gracefully to the book icon.

For the main academic profile page where we will be displaying all the academics, we only have one profile so far. So can you create three dummy profiles and just have them with fake text and placeholder logos and placeholder information in Latin, Lorem Ipsum, whatever it's called, just so we can get a sense of more profiles being added to that page please.

We will of course delete these as we get more member profile information in, but for the time being we just need some placeholders so that the page can look more accurate.

Three dummy academic profiles added

  • Read trigger comment and understand request
  • Read current profile schema and existing cristian-axenie.md for structure reference
  • Create 3 dummy academic profile markdown files with Lorem Ipsum placeholder content
  • Placeholder logos in place (reuses existing institution-placeholder.svg)
  • Committed and pushed (d9e67e7)

Three placeholder profiles have been added to the academics section:

Profile Institution Placeholder
Dr. Elena Vasquez — Associate Professor of Sustainable Computing Lorem University of Technology Building placeholder logo
Prof. Marcus Okafor — Professor of AI Ethics & Sustainable Systems Ipsum Institute of Science & Technology Building placeholder logo
Dr. Yuki Tanaka — Reader in Green Computing Dolor Sit Institute of Advanced Studies Building placeholder logo

Each profile is fully populated with Lorem Ipsum text across all sections (About, Research Mission, Stats, Key Areas, Collaboration Areas, Affiliations, Experience, and Links) so the card grid and individual profile pages both render realistically.

All three are set published: true so they appear immediately on the index page. When you're ready to replace them with real profiles, simply delete the three files — the real profiles can be added with the same structure.

Creates dummy profiles for Dr. Elena Vasquez, Prof. Marcus Okafor, and
Dr. Yuki Tanaka — published but with Lorem Ipsum content and placeholder
institution logos — so the /academics/ index page shows a realistic
multi-profile layout. All three use the existing institution-placeholder.svg
and can be deleted once real profiles are added.

I just had a look at Cristian's personal profile and I think the page is a bit long. I don't want to lose any information, but could you review the formatting and how the information is displayed, and maybe redesign the template so the content is slightly more dense while still attractive and easy to read? Please use your best judgment and the assets available to you. I'd like the page to require as little scrolling as possible. Thank you.

Profile page redesigned for compactness — pushed (986ddda)

  • Read current [slug].astro and cristian-axenie.md
  • Explore available components and design patterns
  • Move stats grid into hero — eliminates entire separate stats section
  • Combine Research Mission + About into one 2-column section
  • Replace tall collaboration timeline (space-y-16) with compact numbered cards (space-y-4)
  • Reduce all section padding from py-16 md:py-20py-10 md:py-14
  • Compact Further Reading into 3-column grid of link groups
  • Commit and push

What changed and why

Before After
Separate stats strip section below hero Stats grid embedded in hero as a 2-col layout (4 stat tiles on the right) — eliminates one full section
Research Mission and About as two separate sections Combined into a single md:grid-cols-5 section: research mission card + SDG chips + book cards on the left (2/5), about paragraphs on the right (3/5)
Collaboration areas with space-y-16 + connecting line Compact numbered card rows with space-y-4 — same 3 areas, much less vertical space
All sections at py-16 md:py-20 (up to 80px top + bottom) All sections at py-10 md:py-14 (40–56px)
Further Reading in a single-column list of groups 3-column grid of link groups — fits more per screen
Book cards: large horizontal with prominent cover image Compact thumbnail cards — cover still visible, much less height

All content is preserved. No text was removed. The page now packs the same information into roughly half the scroll height.

Once Netlify rebuilds, the profile will be at: https://deploy-preview-54--green-software-foundation.netlify.app/academics/cristian-axenie/

Hero redesigned

The hero went from a cramped max-w-4xl constrained layout to a full container-width design with distinct zones:

Before After
Single column, all content stacked in a narrow max-w-4xl box Full-width two-column grid: bio left (3/5), institution logos right (2/5)
Institution logos tucked at the very bottom as afterthoughts Logos in their own column — prominent white-background cards with "Visit institution" label
Stats squeezed into a 2×2 grid inside the right column alongside bio text Stats in a dedicated full-width bar at the bottom of the hero, edge-to-edge with dividers — numbers at text-3xl/4xl
"Academic Member" as plain small text Accent pill badge (bg-accent/20 with accent text)
Profile link buttons: outline-only border pills Buttons with bg-white/10 fill + hover state — more tactile
Name: text-3xl md:text-4xl lg:text-5xl Name: text-4xl md:text-5xl xl:text-6xl — more commanding

…ats bar

- Replace max-w-4xl constrained layout with full container-width grid
- Two-column: bio/links (3/5) left, institution logos (2/5) right on desktop
- Institution logos get dedicated prominent cards with white logo bg and 'Visit institution' label
- 'Academic Member' badge uses accent pill instead of plain text label
- Profile link buttons upgraded: filled bg-white/10 pill with hover state
- Stats moved to full-width bar at hero bottom, spanning edge-to-edge with dividers
- Stats use larger text (text-3xl/4xl) for better visual impact

The section directly below the hero is a little too squashed and cramped. Could you reimagine that section and adjust it slightly? I think you went a bit too far, so please rejig the layout and format.

We should give reasonable prominence to the books and make sure the foreword by Taleb is visible and prominent, as that’s quite an impressive accolade.

Please redesign the section below the hero. Thank you.

Section below the hero redesigned

  • Read trigger comment and understand request
  • Read current [slug].astro to understand what's below the hero
  • Read cristian-axenie.md for content structure
  • Redesign: separate Research Mission+About from Books, give books their own section
  • Commit and push (b98f7a6)

What changed

The old cramped md:grid-cols-5 layout (Research Mission + SDG chips + Books all squeezed into the left 2/5 column) has been replaced with two properly spaced sections:

Section 1 — Research Mission + About

Before After
md:grid-cols-5 (40/60 split, tight) lg:grid-cols-2 (50/50 split, equal)
py-10 md:py-14 py-14 md:py-20 — more breathing room
Research Mission, SDG chips, AND books all in left 2/5 Research Mission + SDG chips on the left, About on the right — nothing overcrowded
SDG chips at px-2.5 py-1 Slightly larger at px-3 py-1.5 gap-2
About paragraphs space-y-4 space-y-5

Section 2 — Books (new dedicated section, cream background)

Before After
Tiny 40px-wide thumbnails crammed into a sidebar 96px (w-24) covers in proper two-column book cards
"2025 BOOKS" as tiny uppercase label, Taleb credit as a subtitle text-3xl md:text-4xl font-extrabold heading + "Foreword by Nassim Taleb" as subtitle in header
No Taleb mention inside each card "Foreword by Nassim Taleb" appears inside each card alongside "Springer Nature, 2025"
Cards at p-3 (cramped) Cards at p-6 with rounded-2xl and hover shadow
"springer.com →" as the only CTA "View on springer.com →" as a proper link CTA at the bottom of each card

…ominent Taleb credit

- Split Research Mission+SDG+Books cramped 2/5 column into two cleaner sections
- Research Mission + About: proper 50/50 two-column (lg:grid-cols-2), py-14/20 breathing room
- Books: dedicated section on cream bg, larger covers (w-24), 'Foreword by Nassim Taleb' in header AND each card body
- SDG chips slightly larger with gap-2 spacing

Can we have the books one on top of each other directly below the SDG Alignment section? Yeah, can we move those up? They'll have to be shrunk a little bit, but you can use your best judgment. If you need more space, you can also increase the size of the text in the About section. So, if you can move the books up to the left-hand side just under the hero, and, if need be, increase the size of the About text so that the two books are stacked vertically.

Books moved up — stacked vertically under SDG Alignment

  • Read request
  • Read current [slug].astro layout
  • Move books to left column, stacked vertically under SDG Alignment
  • Commit and push (097f883)

What changed

The separate Books section that sat below the Research Mission + About block has been removed. The two book cards now live in the left column, stacked vertically directly under the SDG Alignment chips:

Left column (top to bottom):

  1. Research Mission
  2. SDG Alignment
  3. 2025 Books ← moved here, stacked vertically

Right column:

  • About text — first paragraph bumped to text-base md:text-lg (was text-base only), body paragraphs to text-sm md:text-base, so the right column fills the space well

Book card changes:

  • Cards now stack vertically (space-y-3) rather than side by side
  • Cover image shrunk from w-24 to w-14 — still visible, takes less space
  • Card padding reduced from p-6 to p-3.5
  • Background: bg-accent-lightest-2 (cream) instead of white — keeps visual distinction within the white section
