Heimweer.be

/ What the site does

A multilingual platform for folk tales from Flanders and the Low Countries, with stories, regional classification and matching coats of arms.

/ Why this approach

• Content that keeps growing needs a system, not separate pages.
• Multilingualism (NL/DE/EN/FR) opens up a wider audience than a single language.
• A recognisable, atmospheric brand turns an archive into a destination.

/ How it was built

• A content engine that handles more than 2,000 stories and coats of arms, with overviews and filtering.
• Multilingual structure (NL · DE · EN · FR).
• A custom ‘shield proxy’ architecture to display coats of arms reliably.
• Lightweight, fast and scalable, set up for expansion.
