Before

Captured storefront snapshot

Original public contact page used as the reference state.

After blueprint

Corrected accessibility direction

Focused on form semantics, page structure, and clearer assistive cues.

Audit findings addressed here

  • `heading-order` on the contact page
  • Form labeling and autocomplete expectations from the deeper scan
  • `landmark-unique` and `region` structure cleanup
  • Visible keyboard focus and clearer assistive cues

What changes on the contact template

  • Heading order becomes easier to follow with one clear top-level page purpose.
  • Form labels, instructions, and autocomplete expectations are clarified.
  • Landmark structure is simplified so assistive tech can move through the page cleanly.
  • Focus visibility and keyboard review become explicit requirements.

What Cooper should compare

  • The page still feels like the same Hemlock contact experience.
  • The form remains simple and not over-engineered.
  • Clarity improves without changing the tone of the brand.

Carve-outs

  • The actual form implementation still needs to be updated in the live Shopify theme.
  • Submission behavior and any anti-spam tooling still need live verification.
  • Final form testing should include keyboard and error-state review after implementation.
