Floorplan piece; This was a separate project within a project
I had a dillema about the floorplan map (south-west of the screenshot) - which technic would be better: either Flash or a regular CSS. The latter won, so I coded bunch of over-crossing HREF elements giving the smooth mouse-over effect at the end
There were two ways of searching the dream apartment, and they were interchangeable; certain map was shown (south-west) upon a drop-down menu selection and the sub-menu was served on the fly (section above the floorplan map)
Inevitable Lightbox-like gallery - client wants, client gets!
One main part of the site was the E-Brochure - a book-like, mouse-activated script. As the main site was covered only in English, this very part was translated into 4 other languages, constituting 5 (4 lang. + EN) different PHP feeds. The AS script (Flash's Action Script) used was a ready-to-go and off-shelf software, nevertheless I needed to use my Flash skills to understand the scripting and then bend it to its final form
