Dr. Heinz Neuschmied

The website of this notary should mainly give information to existing customers of the notary. Advertisement to find additional customers is a secondary goal. The profession of the notary includes dealing with acquisition/disposition of companies and real estates. He is also consulted when new companies are founded, existing companies split up etc. The notary is one of the youngest (~40) in this business, because of which it is important to present him as professional as possible. Site Structure The site contains following pages: - Home - Philosophy - About Me - Cost Estimate - Contact - ImpressumLayout It is up to you to find a fitting layout. The entry page (Home) should contain at least the following information: - Title „Dr. Heinz Neuschmied“ - Navigation - Short Description - Contact Data - Eagle Logo (official recognition of his profession - not primary logo) - Notary Logo (society of all notaries - not primary logo)A primary logo of the notary himself does not exist. A photograph of him is not desired on the entry page. Logos can be found on http://2befound.at/Logos.zip The inner page contains the same elements (except for the short description) and some standard CMS text and pictures. Target audience The target audience of the website are private individuals of middle and higher age (30-80) and companies/enterprises. Spirit The design should have a calm, serious, modern and professional spirit. People visiting the site usually have rather more money and want to be sure it's the right place where they're putting it. Accepted file formats vector graphics, layered graphics (everything readable in GIMP, e.g. PSD, XCF) Prize $500 guaranteed!
