Dramatic transformation is kind of our thing, which is why we were excited to partner with Brookfield Properties to reposition Northbrook Court — a regional luxury shopping center in the North Shore of Chicago slated to undergo a complete metamorphosis in the coming years. Our challenge was to develop an integrated marketing program to support both the leasing process and future consumer-facing communications while the mall continues to operate during construction.
~ Katie Boogher, Director B2B Marketing, Brookfield Properties
The first film for Northbrook Court leveraged mystery by partially revealing iconic elements of the development vision. In doing so, the film evokes a sense of curiosity and desire to learn more about what the future holds for this exciting transformation.
Our branding approach required a careful balance between the often diverging needs of Brookfield’s B2B and B2C audiences while embracing a spirit of discovery across all touchpoints.
The immersive 360-degree, 3D rendering of the development allows users to feel as if they’ve been dropped into the Northbrook Court wonderland on a gorgeous spring day.
The website was designed to capture the feeling of wonder evoked by the initial film and the brand as a whole. Users experience the thrill of discovery as they navigate through the site, drawn in by questions, hints, and a dreamy color palette.
A bespoke mobile application gives the development and leasing teams on-demand access to rich, data-driven interactive content for use in one-on-one and large group presentations.
At the end of the day, we were able to craft a solution that met Brookfield’s business needs and connected with the end-user at an emotional level. We successfully leveraged and integrated many of Brookfield’s existing platforms (CRM’s, CMS’s, etc), particularly with the website and iPad app, to create a cohesive campaign that highlighted the project in a unique and fantastical way.
