Accessibility Statement

S. Hines, Inc. is committed to ensuring digital accessibility for people of all abilities. We strive to continually improve the user experience for everyone and apply relevant accessibility standards under the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA.

Conformance Measures & Contrast Audit

In September 2026, our website underwent a comprehensive digital accessibility and contrast remediation. Specific measures include:

• Semantic Contrast Architecture: Brown brand accents on dark green or photographic backgrounds were replaced with high-contrast on-dark semantic tokens (warm copper and off-white) exceeding 4.5:1 for body copy and 3:1 for large text and interactive components.
• Descriptive Photographic Alt Text: Construction case-study galleries feature descriptive alternative text documenting architectural features rather than generic placeholders.
• Keyboard Navigation & Focus: Interactive elements include visible keyboard focus outlines, logical tab ordering, and a "Skip to Main Content" mechanism.
• Form Accessibility: Contact and project planning forms incorporate explicit labels, accessible error notifications, autocomplete attributes, and clear next-step communication.
• Interactive Accessibility Widget: Visitors may adjust text size, switch to high-contrast or inverted color schemes, highlight hyperlinks, or pause animations via the accessibility preferences panel.
