Tierservice means "Animal Service" in German, and is a full service establishment for pets located in Stolpen, Germany near Dresden. This web project was initiated to give the business a world wide presence and to provide the framework for future information projects.

Obviously, the biggest challenge was the bilingual nature of the site. The first step was educating staff in Germany on the reason for the prospective site, and the nature of Internet content. A framework was developed by me which would offer two paths from the home page - English and German - and then two versions of the architecture. Content in German was sent via email, as were digital photos. All of the content was painstakingly translated into English, with a good deal of restructuring necessary to make it 'proper' for English-speaking web audiences, and taking into account cultural differences.

Once the static content of the site was in place, Ralf began developing a series of pet information resources in German with static and database driven content, and e-commerce (and he's still going), and eventually started doing his own design work.
