Think Different. These seemingly benign words instantly conjure up images of high- performance sneakers (for the former) and tech innovation (for the latter). That’s what Nike and Apple, some of the world’s most iconic brands, are able to do. Taking inspiration from them, Cadillac Fairview (CF) developed a distinct signature of its own as an expression of its brand promise: “Transforming Communities for a Vibrant Tomorrow.” Designed as a guiding principal, this is the CF team’s approach to creating, shaping, and executing all of its programs and engagements, including in-property experiences that connect people, places, and communities across Canada. Strategically positioning its brand among market leaders, CF’s “Meet You There” conveys its focus on creating experiences and exploring the future. The new brand signature was launched late last year via video across three social channels: Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. Considered phase one, the video release acted as an introduction to the concept and reinforced Cadillac Fairview as an experience-led brand. From mundane and moving through the motions to magical and moving aside the fridge and furniture, the clip shows two women separately discovering a portal-like entrance into a CF property. The one-minute video, which ends with something of a cliffhanger with the viewer having more questions than answers, is the result of a collaboration between CF’s internal team and several of its agency partners, including Ideo in San Francisco, Bleublancrouge in Winston Hills Backs the Arts Mummy Mornings at WestCity Boost Traffic Charlestown Square Tunes In and Dishes Out page 9 Surf's Up and Summer's On at Robina Town Centre page 14 Eye on Design: The New Co-working Space Trends page 18 Webmasters page 22 Missed an issue?
