Ease-out for entrance, ease-in-out for state. 200ms hover, 400–600ms layout. Stagger children at 30–60ms so groups feel intentional, not synchronized.
Spacing
Pick one scale (4 or 8) and don't mix. Section padding 96–128px desktop, 48–64px mobile. Headline sits ~24px above the subhead; subhead ~32px above the CTA cluster.
