Linked issues

Relates to Linear LSA-108 (design: culture-page - Build Culture page). It does not close the issue: the Culture page content on DEV, SEO metadata and the manual QA are still open.

Design Overview

The remaining four patterns for the About "Culture" page (/about/culture/): Learning and Open-source, Fostering connection, Why that matters and the closing call to action. Built from the standalone prototype About Culture Standalone.html and the content doc 01-about-culture.md. This is the second layer of the stack that starts with #135.

  • Section - Split Divided Text Chips: "Learning is part of the job" and "Open-source mindset" as two columns on a card band, each a dot eyebrow H2, a paragraph and a row of tinted pill labels, with a hairline divider between them.
  • Section - Split Header Icon Columns: "Remote, but not isolated" with a split header above three ruled columns, each a large accent-coloured Icon block (calendar, sparkle, graduation cap), an H3 and a paragraph.
  • Section - Split Statement Cards: "Why that matters" as two large cards on a card band: a plain card ("For clients") and a solid brand card ("For future teammates") with a mono label at the top and a large statement at the bottom.
  • CTA - Centered Panel: a rounded, bordered card panel with the shared corner glow, a centred "Join the Team" eyebrow, H2, paragraph and three buttons. "View Open Roles" and "Meet the Team" are primary buttons; "Get in touch" is the outline button.
  • Reuse first: the dot eyebrow, ls-corner-glow, the pill-label (ls-chips) and column-divider styles from the first PR, the shared buttons and the existing brand, accent and border tokens. All blocks are core blocks; no custom blocks. No new tokens (it uses surface.brand-strong and accent.warm, added in design: culture-page - Add the Hero and Sections 1-4 patterns and the warm accent tokens (LSA-108) #135).

Design Files / References

Standalone HTML prototype About Culture Standalone.html and content doc 01-about-culture.md. No Figma frames.

Changes

  • Patterns: patterns/sections/split-divided-text-chips.php, patterns/sections/split-header-icon-columns.php, patterns/sections/split-statement-cards.php and patterns/cta/cta-centered-panel.php. All links use home_url(), so they resolve on DEV (Careers is /about/careers/, Team is /about/team/, Contact is /contact/). Icons are the registered lightspeed/calendar, lightspeed/sparkle and lightspeed/graduation-cap.
  • Styles: src/scss/structural/about-culture.scss, compiled to assets/css/about-culture.css. This PR adds only what JSON cannot reach: the mobile switch from side dividers to bottom and top rules for the icon columns and the divided pair (with a bottom gap under the first column), and the CTA heading width and balance. The lane rule from design: culture-page - Add the Hero and Sections 1-4 patterns and the warm accent tokens (LSA-108) #135 now also covers the icon columns. inc/animations.php lists the new classes (ls-col-rule, ls-divided-col, ls-cta-centered) for render_block detection.
  • Closing CTA follows light and dark mode: unlike the prototype, which keeps the band dark in both modes, it is a surface.card panel so it matches the rest of the page.

Scope and exclusions

Screenshots/video

Accessibility notes

  • Each section has a real H2, with H3 sub-items. The eyebrow headings are real H2 elements styled as eyebrows.
  • The "For future teammates" card text is text.inverse on surface.brand-strong: white on brand blue is 5.34:1 in light mode, and dark text on cyan in dark mode. Axe reports no serious or critical violations in either mode.
  • The icons are decorative; each column keeps its heading and text.
  • The card and divider changes have no motion; there is no new animation.

Testing

  • npm run schema:validate passes
  • npm run build:css compiles; stylelint passes on about-culture.scss
  • php -l passes for the four patterns and inc/animations.php
  • Local, 1440px light and dark: the four sections render as the design; the "Why that matters" brand card and the CTA buttons are as intended
  • Local, 390px light and dark: no horizontal scroll; the pill-label columns stack with a divider and the icon columns stack with bottom dividers
  • Playwright standing suite plus the mobile-menu spec, run with SINGLE_PAGE_URL on /about/culture/ across Chromium, Mobile Chrome, Mobile Safari and Tablet, once in dark mode and once in light mode (page background confirmed each time): 115 passed, 26 skipped, 3 failed in each mode. The 3 failures are the existing "accordion summaries do not contain links (known issue: nested-interactive)" test on the header mobile menu, which this PR does not touch
  • CodeRabbit CLI review (not run on this branch)
  • Screen reader tested
  • Culture page on DEV after deploy

Review comments at @patterns/sections/split-divided-text-chips.php:
- Around line 46-47: Update the conditional output in the split-divided column
markup to JSON-encode the block attributes and escape the generated HTML style
attribute value using the project’s standard PHP escaping helpers. Keep the
existing first-column and subsequent-column values unchanged.

Review comments at @patterns/sections/split-header-icon-columns.php:
- Around line 77-78: Update the conditional block attributes around the column
markup to encode the generated block-attribute JSON safely, and escape the
rendered style attribute value in the corresponding div. Preserve the existing
first-column versus subsequent-column border and padding behavior while applying
the project’s standard PHP escaping functions.

Review comments at @patterns/sections/split-statement-cards.php:
- Around line 57-58: Update the heading color output in the block comment and
the h3 style attribute to escape both contexts correctly: JSON-encode the block
attribute value and HTML-escape the style attribute value, while preserving the
existing conditional colors and label escaping.
