Accessibility

Room for every reader.

The House treats legibility, keyboard access, responsive behavior and reduced motion as part of design quality, not as an afterthought.

Last updated September 10, 2026.

Design targetWork toward WCAG 2.2 Level AA.

This is an ongoing review target, not a claim that every page and every third-party service has been fully certified.

01

Keyboard navigation

Primary navigation, overlays, forms, save controls and core page links are designed to work without a mouse. Full-screen menus and search dialogs return focus when closed, and visible focus indicators are part of the interface.

02

Motion and animation

The site respects the browser's reduced-motion preference. Decorative movement is limited and should never be required to understand the content or complete a task.

03

Reading and contrast

Body text, controls and critical labels are designed for practical reading sizes and contrast. Large editorial typography is used for hierarchy, while essential information remains available as ordinary text rather than only inside imagery.

04

Responsive layout

Pages are designed to reflow across desktop, tablet and mobile widths without requiring horizontal scrolling for the main reading experience. Touch targets and spacing are reviewed as part of the mobile interface.

05

Images and structure

Meaningful imagery uses alternative text where the image contributes information. Decorative images can be hidden from assistive technology. Pages use headings, landmarks and labels to preserve a sensible reading order.

06

Ongoing review

Accessibility can regress as content changes. New title pages, forms, downloads and language editions should be reviewed again when they are updated rather than relying on a one-time audit.

Include the page, device or browser if known, the task you were trying to complete and the barrier you encountered. A concise description is enough.
