Project Scope
We are building:
- School website (HERTZ School)
- A second website / section for a Living Book (editorial, calm, chapter-based)
Both projects are already fully concepted.
All texts (German), mockups (PNG), structure and visual direction are provided.
Your role is design + layout + rhythm, not content creation.

Important: Language

You do not need to translate perfectly, but you must be comfortable working with German text (we will support you if needed).

• Build all pages visually in Webflow
• Use images as rhythm (not decoration)
• Create space, pauses, and flow
• Apply strong typography and spacing
• Make the site responsive (desktop + mobile)
• Deliver a clean, editable Webflow project
⸻
What you will NOT do
• No templates
• No Wix-like sections
• No marketing design

• No branding changes
• No developer handoff

• cards, boxes, grids
• “clean SaaS” style

• no charity / NGO feeling
⸻
Experience required
