After blueprint

Corrected accessibility direction

This rebuilt review version shows the intended outcome before live Shopify implementation.

Audit findings addressed here

  • `color-contrast` across shared text and accent treatments
  • `heading-order` on repeated homepage sections
  • `landmark-unique` and `region` through clearer structure
  • Shared keyboard focus visibility expectations

What changes on the home template

  • Global text and muted color tokens move into passing contrast ranges.
  • Heading sequence becomes more logical so screen-reader navigation is less confusing.
  • Shared landmark and region structure becomes clearer around announcement, header, main content, and footer.
  • Keyboard focus treatment becomes visually obvious across shared navigation and CTAs.

What Cooper should compare

  • Brand look and feel remain intact even with stronger contrast.
  • Primary hierarchy still feels like Hemlock, just clearer.
  • Buttons and calls to action remain visually familiar.
  • Nothing in the corrected direction should feel like a redesign.

Carve-outs

  • Theme token changes still need to be implemented in the real Shopify theme.
  • Any runtime-only announcement or app behavior must be retested on the live store.
  • Final keyboard and screen-reader verification still happens after implementation.
