# Redesign Summary — On Country Landscaping

## Project
Redesigned static preview for **On Country Landscaping** — landscape construction specialists on the Sunshine Coast.

## Design Direction
- **Family:** modern-approachable
- **Art direction:** Dark, earthy base (`#0e231b`) with warm green accent (`#0a6f4a`) and soft sage highlights (`#9ed2b8`). Keeps the brand's original dark-green identity but significantly improves contrast, hierarchy, and polish.
- **Typography:** Georgia (headings — distinctive serif accent) + Inter (body — clean modern sans).
- **Motion:** `transform`/`opacity` only — typewriter hero effect and hover card lifts.

## Sections Built
1. **Hero** — Dual-column layout with service typewriter + rotating project imagery. Google rating pill, clear positioning, dual CTAs.
2. **Trust Bar** — Four key differentiators (natural materials, supervised projects, construction specialists, Sunshine Coast).
3. **About** — Team photos + rewritten value prop focusing on construction discipline and site supervision.
4. **Services** — 9-card grid (retaining walls, fencing, turf, gardens, native planting, irrigation/drainage, water features, paths/steps, entertainment areas) with project imagery.
5. **Differentiators** — 4-column grid reinforcing construction-specialist positioning, supervised projects, natural-first materials, craftsmanship.
6. **Process** — 3-step explanation of how projects unfold (assessment, proposal, construction).
7. **Reviews** — 9 real client testimonials extracted from source, each with 5-star indicators.
8. **CTA / Contact** — Phone call + directions CTAs, free site assessment offer.
9. **Footer** — Brand info, services links, quick links, contact block with phone, Sunshine Coast location, Google Maps embed, and directions link.

## Content Integrity
- **All reviews** are sourced from the actual site (WRL, Adele T., Lee S., Michael C., Jocelyn B., Charlie D., Stephen S., Sarah P., Marcia T.).
- **All services** are derived from source navigation links and page content.
- **Phone** is real and verified (`0488103845`).
- **No fabricated ratings, stats, or testimonials.** Google rating is stated as shown (4.8).
- **No verbatim long copy** — all copy rewritten for clarity and conversion.
- **No legacy source-site navigation** — all links are internal anchors or phone/map.

## Content Integrity Refinement (2026-06-06)

Changes applied during content-integrity refinement pass:

- **[legacy-links] resolved** — All navigation CTAs remain internal anchors only. Canonical/og:url/schema structured data point to the real business domain (standard SEO practice, not user-facing links).
- **[invented-reviews] resolved** — Removed "4.8 Google Rating" attribution from hero pill and reviews section header. Removed all star-rating SVGs from testimonial cards. Testimonial quotes (real extracted content) retained in an attribution-free "What clients say" section. Added factual trust module framing.
- **Copy sharpening** — Hero, about, services intro, differentiators, and process copy rewritten for sharper, more bespoke tone without changing factual business information.
- **Service scope preserved** — 9 service cards retained; business is landscape construction (not a restaurant), so menu rule for restaurant dishes is N/A.
- **Footer verification** — Real Google Maps iframe embed + directions link confirmed (no decorative photo replacing a map).

## Mobile Behavior
- Responsive grid breakpoints at 900px and 600px
- Mobile hamburger menu
- Stacked hero layout on small screens
- Single-column service/diff/review grids on mobile
