forest city

knowledge-based communities

L Studio helped position and package developer Forest City’s offerings for transit-oriented, knowledge-based communities in India and smart-growth developments in the United States. Communications have been delivered in both digital and printed materials.

Idea books outline the vision for the projects and the potential benefits of a particular development product. Plan books follow, outlining specific planning strategies by Calthorpe Associates and related portfolio projects by Forest City Enterprises.

Presentation templates transfer information and messaging into a projectable, digital format. Splash pages establish immediate web presence. All materials highlight the strength and experience of the international team through strong graphics and distilled messaging.
