A German brand we have built for
Silberthal makes premium German kitchenware, and we rebuilt their commerce experience around the brand's 100-day trial and the trust signals that carry a considered purchase — photography-led, calm, and built to convert a discerning German buyer. Getting a premium German brand right means the quality of the build has to match the quality of the product, and that was the bar.
Performance and precision
German audiences notice a slow or sloppy site, and Berlin's technical crowd doubly so. We build performance-first — often on Next.js with sub-second loads and full SEO control — and hold every build to Core Web Vitals in the green. Nothing ships that we would not be comfortable putting our name to.
GDPR, taken as seriously as Germany does
Germany enforces data protection more strictly than almost anywhere, and German buyers expect it. We build consent-first: no non-essential cookies before opt-in, data collection limited to genuine need, and a clean technical foundation for your Datenschutzerklärung.
SEPA, payments and DE/EN
We integrate SEPA direct debit alongside card and the methods German shoppers use, through Stripe or your platform's gateway, invoiced in euros. Where you sell to both German and international customers, we build proper DE/EN multilingual structures with correct hreflang.
Built for Berlin's startups and premium makers
Berlin holds two demanding audiences at once: a fast, technical startup scene that judges a site on its performance, and premium product makers who judge it on its craft. We build for both.
Startups get performance-first Next.js with sub-second loads and full SEO control; premium brands get the photography-led, precise commerce that a considered German purchase demands. Both get a fixed price, a real timeline, and a build we would put our name to.
From MVP to scale
Berlin startups rarely need everything on day one. They need a credible, fast site that ships now and a foundation that will not have to be thrown away when the next funding round changes the plan. We build the first version lean and correct, then extend it as you grow, rather than over-engineering something you do not need yet.
Because you own the codebase and it is built on standard, well-documented technology, you are never trapped. Your own developers can pick it up later, or we can keep building alongside you. Either way the site scales with the company instead of becoming the thing you have to replace.
Berlin questions, answered.
Can you meet German quality expectations?
Yes — our Silberthal rebuild was built to match a premium German product, performance-first and precise. We hold every build to Core Web Vitals in the green and a standard we would put our name to.
How strictly do you handle GDPR?
Consent-first by default: no non-essential cookies before opt-in, minimal data collection, and a clean technical basis for your Datenschutzerklärung — appropriate for Germany's strict enforcement.
Can you integrate SEPA and German payment methods?
Yes — SEPA direct debit alongside card and other methods German shoppers use, through Stripe or your platform's native gateway, invoiced in euros.
Do you build with Next.js?
Yes. For performance-critical and premium builds we use Next.js for sub-second loads and full SEO control — a good fit for Berlin's technical audience.
Can you build a German/English multilingual site?
Yes, with proper per-language URL structure and correct hreflang so DE and EN versions each rank on their own.
Who owns the finished site?
You do — all code, files and hosting accounts, with no platform lock-in or licence fee.
Do you offer support after launch?
Yes — training at handover plus optional monthly maintenance for updates, backups, monitoring and small changes.
Can you build a headless or Next.js store?
Yes. For performance-critical German builds we use Next.js with a headless CMS or Shopify backend for sub-second loads and full SEO control.
