We completely rebuilt the portal for Aktion Mensch using a modern headless architecture.
At the heart of the new platform is a central content hub. It supplies content not only to the portal itself, but also to newsletter services and the online store. At the same time, it is connected to Aktion Mensch's internal systems and provides content on funding projects that have been applied for and approved.

In addition, the content hub powers a decoupled front-end application for time-controlled campaigns. This allows content to be flexibly delivered across various applications and channels.
The accessible content management system is multisite-capable and connected to Aktion Mensch's user management via single sign-on. Media is managed centrally, while automated image transformations provide tailored asset variants for the respective output channels.
A shared UI component base serves as a single source of truth and guarantees a consistent brand experience across all applications.

Multi-level caching layers and an upstream CDN ensure performance and stability even with high traffic volumes. At the same time, the platform was designed so that additional online offerings from Aktion Mensch can be gradually migrated to the new infrastructure.

An app to commemorate people who must never be forgotten.

In conjunction with the "Stolpersteine" art memorial, we would like to digitally support the culture of remembrance of the victims of National Socialism. To this end, we use and compile publicly available data from the online encyclopaedia Wikipedia and OpenStreetMap. The personal stories and fates are thus made directly accessible at the places in Germany where they were written. There were already 20,000 Stolpersteine when the app was launched in November 2022. There are now over 36,000 in 93 cities and municipalities, which we regularly add to.

Stumbling Stones Germany is largely barrier-free and can be used by people with severe visual impairments and limited motor skills. The app was realized by us on our own initiative without taxpayers' money or donations.

The world's largest decentralized memorial: "A person is only forgotten when his name is forgotten," says Gunter Demnig, quoting the Talmud.

To commemorate the victims of the Nazi era, the artist places small brass memorial plaques in the sidewalk in front of their last chosen place of residence or work. Demnig began with the first Stolperstein in 1992 and there are now more than 100,000 in over 1,800 German municipalities and 30 countries. The art project is considered the largest decentralized memorial in the world and focuses attention on the people who were persecuted, murdered, deported or expelled during the Nazi regime.

Free app download for iOS and iPad OS, as well as for Androi devices.

In the heart of Munich, on Marienplatz, a place has been created that combines brand, gastronomy, and architecture in a unique way: Germany's first Nespresso House.

The innovative concept marks a new chapter that combines retail, brand presentation, and moments of enjoyment, reinterpreting modern coffee culture against a historic backdrop. In a stylish atmosphere, visitors can not only discover the latest Nespresso creations, but also enjoy culinary highlights, attend masterclasses on coffee, and immerse themselves in the brand world.

We at d-SIRE are delighted to have provided creative support for this project from the very beginning – with menus, packaging for limited editions, patisserie boxes, digital touchpoints, and multi-stage CRM communication, ranging from initial behind-the-scenes insights to the opening.

We are delighted that, 26 years after our founding, we are still among the top agencies in the Internet agency ranking.
A huge thank you to our customers for their trust – and to our amazing team for their commitment, creativity and passion. 

Without them, none of this would be possible!

Craft CMS offers numerous advantages, including a headless architecture for flexible frontend development, powerful caching for optimal speed, high scalability and the ability to manage multiple websites centrally. In addition, it offers an impressive content workflow with an excellent user interface for editors, including live preview and inline editing. 

After successfully implementing several projects for customers such as Aktion Mensch, Eurowings and Nelson Müller with Craft CMS in recent months, we are very pleased about this official partnership. 

Ten years have passed since Germanwings Flight 4U9525 from Barcelona to Düsseldorf crashed in the French Alps. In Le Vernet, near the crash site, a memorial was established, where the annual memorial service also took place on March 24, 2025, attended by 400 bereaved family members. To preserve the memories and offer the bereaved a protected space for exchange, a special memorial website was also created. For this significant anniversary, we have redesigned this website on behalf of Eurowings to continue providing the families with a sensitive and respectful platform.
