1. Foundational Commitment to Universal Access
Astrake India is committed to ensuring that our digital presentation layer is universally accessible to engineers, regulators, researchers, and individuals with disabilities. We build to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 and 2.2 Level AA standards as an architectural baseline.
2. Architectural Accessibility Controls
- Rigorous Contrast Envelopes: All primary body copy meets or exceeds WCAG AA contrast ratios (5.9:1 for
--color-concreteon white backgrounds, 9.7:1 for--color-concrete-darkon dark void surfaces). - Keyboard Navigation & Focus Rings: Every interactive link, button, details toggle, and slider control is reachable via keyboard sequence, highlighted by a high-contrast 2px Electric Blue focus ring (
--focus-ring). - Semantic HTML5 Landmarks: All pages utilize semantic landmark elements (
<header>,<nav>,<main>,<footer>,<article>,<section>) with accuratearia-labelandroledescriptions. - SVG Accessibility Trees: Technical drawing plates preserve internal
<title>,<desc>, and hidden text nodes so assistive screen readers accurately convey schematic structures.
3. Native Reduced Motion Architecture
For visitors with vestibular sensitivities or motion discomfort, the website provides comprehensive support for the prefers-reduced-motion: reduce media query. When activated in your operating system or browser:
- The entrance split-wipe preloader is bypassed instantly.
- WebGL 3D render loops and rotational scrubs are suspended.
- All 4 sector exhibition plates render immediately in a clean, readable vertical flow with 100% visible typography.
- The Scene 04 Sundial displays a static orthographic monument image with fully revealed manifesto text.
4. Accessibility Audits & Feedback Protocol
Our codebase is continuously audited against automated W3C accessibility and web-quality benchmarks (targeting 100/100 across all viewports) and pre-release verification gates. If you encounter any accessibility barrier or have suggestions for improved accessibility, please contact our accessibility coordinator:
