Bear Trap Design

English term or phrase: Bear Trap Design
Hi! I am a translation student working on a homework assignment. My assignment is to translate a simple web page. The web page is for Bear Trap Design. I am wondering what would be the best translation of this:

La trampa de oso diseño
El diseño de trampa de oso
El diseño de Bear trap

or something else.

Gracias!

Spanish translation:Bear trap design
Explanation:
I've just visited the website and it doesn't seem to me that they design "bear traps", so I think the best is to let "Bear Trap" in English.

I would translate it as:

- Diseños Bear Trap
or
- Diseño de Interiores Bear Trap

The former is translated word for word, but I prefer the latter because it clarifies what kind of design is about.

Hope it helps!

Interiorismo "BEAR TRAP"


Explanation:
Depende del contexto, Denise! Si, como he comprobado, se trata de una web sobre diseño de interiores pues, yo dejaría el nombre en inglés porque -Interiorismo "La trampa del oso"- suena fatal en español. Si se trata de proyectos sobre cómo diseñar trampas para estos animales, pues lo diría literalmente: "Diseño de trampas para osos". Espero haberte ayudado. Un saludo!
