The Brief
Launch Collina North with an event that brought the right people together and created a strong first impression.
MAAS Group engaged Straight Lines Design & Marketing to plan and deliver the official sod-turning event for Collina North, marking the commencement of construction on Griffith’s newest master-planned residential community.
Spanning approximately 33.3 hectares and approved for around 280 residential lots, Collina North represents a significant investment in Griffith’s growing northern corridor and future housing supply.
The event needed to reflect the significance of the development, bring together key local stakeholders and generate awareness across the wider community.
The Solution
End-to-end event management, from the first invitation to the final photo.
We developed and managed the event from start to finish, bringing together event planning, stakeholder engagement, branded collateral, media relations and content production.
Working within a client-supplied budget, our team coordinated every element required to deliver a professional launch. A key focus was making sure the right people were in attendance.
