Case Study: Chicago Lights
One of CBRE’s top-performing teams approached us to tell the story of the role they’ve played in fostering Chicago’s tech scene. They’ve had a hand in nearly every groundbreaking real estate project in tech — from finding Google the perfect home to co-founding 1871, ChicagoNEXT, and MATTER. We helped them design and develop a new website and blog that shows why.
Helping companies of all sizes grow in Chicago.
As leaders at CBRE, they have access to the world’s largest database of real estate information, that combined with their innate passion for building companies, communities, and neighborhoods makes them one of the most effective teams for companies of all sizes. They’ve helped companies like Yelp, Spotify, and Pinterest expand in Chicago — not just through finding the right space, but introducing them to the right people and partners in the community. We helped hone that story and translate it into a visual design language.
Chicago’s tech story is CBRE’s story.
With over 450 offices and clients in more than 100 countries, CBRE is the largest commercial real estate company of its kind. The strength of this team is how they leverage those assets and resources to make tactical moves that have shaped thriving neighborhoods like Chicago’s West Loop and Fulton Market. Our focus in the photography and video we produced was to tell the story of Chicago’s vibrant tech community, how this team was a catalyst in its development, as well as the size of their reach.
