WordPress website design for real estate development Galandov Majer

The building didn’t exist yet. The website had to sell it anyway.

That’s the fundamental challenge of real estate development marketing. You’re asking people to commit hundreds of thousands of euros to something they can’t walk through, can’t touch, and can’t see with their own eyes. The website becomes the showroom.

Galandov Majer Residence is a 98-apartment residential development on a hillside above Kremnica, a historic town in central Slovakia. The project offers apartments from compact two-room units at 40 m² to spacious seven-room mezzanettes at 194 m², plus two commercial spaces. It’s positioned as a new standard for living in Kremnica: modern apartments with generous layouts, large glazed areas, and panoramic mountain views.

The developer needed a presentation website that does what a physical sales office does before the building is finished: show the project, explain the apartments, present the location, and make it easy for potential buyers to find the unit that fits them. We designed and built it on WordPress.

What the project needed

Real estate development websites have a specific constraint that most other websites don’t: the product doesn’t exist yet. There’s no building to photograph, no interiors to showcase, no residents to quote. Everything has to be communicated through architectural renders, floor plans, and careful storytelling about what the finished development will offer.

Galandov Majer needed a site that could do several things at once. Present the project and its vision. Show 98 individual apartments across multiple floors in a way that’s browsable rather than overwhelming. Communicate the location’s appeal (hillside setting, mountain views, proximity to Kremnica’s historic centre). Provide practical information about financing options. And do all of this with the kind of visual quality that justifies the investment buyers are being asked to make.

The site also needed to work as a living sales tool. As apartments sell, the availability changes. The WordPress build had to let the team update listings without needing a developer for every change.

How we approached it

Selling a vision through architectural renders

When the product doesn’t physically exist, the visual presentation carries enormous weight. Every image on the site is an architectural render showing the development as it will look when completed: the building on its hillside setting, the apartment interiors with natural light streaming through floor-to-ceiling windows, the surrounding landscape.

We designed the site to let these renders do the heavy lifting. Full-screen hero imagery, a dedicated gallery section, and carefully sized images throughout the content pages. The renders needed space to breathe. A cramped layout with small images would undercut the sense of space and quality that the development is selling.

Interactive floor plans for 98 apartments

98 apartments across multiple floors is a lot of inventory to present. A simple list wouldn’t work. Buyers need to understand where in the building a specific apartment sits, what floor it’s on, and what’s available.

We built an interactive building visualisation where visitors can browse by floor. Select a floor and the site shows the available apartments on that level with their layouts and specifications. It turns a complex inventory into something you can explore naturally, the way you’d walk through a building with a sales agent pointing out options.

This is the kind of feature that separates a presentation website from a brochure PDF. The interactivity gives buyers a sense of spatial orientation within the building before a single wall has been erected.

A colour palette that connects to the setting

The visual identity uses dark green and gold. That’s not an arbitrary choice. Galandov Majer sits on a wooded hillside above Kremnica, surrounded by the Kremnica Mountains. The green connects directly to the natural setting. The gold adds a premium layer that communicates quality without shouting about it.

The logo features a mountain motif, another direct reference to the location. These details might seem decorative, but they’re doing real work. A buyer considering an apartment in a mountain town wants to feel the connection to that environment. The colour palette and branding create that feeling from the first page load.

Location as a selling point, not an afterthought

For a residential development, location isn’t background context. It’s a primary purchase driver. People don’t just buy an apartment. They buy a lifestyle, a commute, a neighbourhood.

We gave the location section real prominence rather than burying it on a contact page with a map pin. The section communicates Kremnica’s appeal: the historic town centre nearby, the surrounding mountain landscape, the practical amenities (shops, schools, institutions), and the specific hillside position that gives the development its panoramic views.

This matters because Galandov Majer isn’t in Bratislava or Košice. It’s in a smaller historic town. The website needs to sell the town as much as the building.

WordPress for a sales tool that changes

Apartment inventory changes. Units sell. Prices may adjust. New phases become available. A real estate presentation website isn’t a static brochure. It’s a sales tool that the team needs to update regularly as the project progresses.

We built the site on WordPress with a content structure that makes these updates straightforward. The team can update apartment availability, adjust pricing, add new gallery images, and modify content without waiting for a developer. For a project that spans from pre-construction through to final sales, this kind of independence matters.
