Londonewcastle

Londonewcastle

Caro Communications has started work with developer, Londonewcastle, to deliver an overarching corporate communications strategy and single project strategies to include PR and social media support. The brief includes the launch of the first of several London projects, including the restoration of Balfron Tower in Poplar and two mixed-use new build developments in Hackney.

Londonewcastle has been creating award-winning developments in the capital for three decades. It specialises in developing assets for both private investors and the public sector with a range of high-end residential homes and mixed-use regeneration schemes across London. Bringing together the property and art sector, Londonewcastle also works with a number of artistic initiatives to bring London’s creative community and its vacant spaces together, offering new artists a place to showcase their work. Londonewcastle’s renowned exhibition space in Shoreditch, Redchurch Street, came to a close in 2016 after an incredibly successful eight years running. Its new and more intimate space in Whitechapel, Gallery 46, is in partnership with Neu Galleries and is a multifaceted arts development space for the presentation of all types of exhibitors including new and established artists alongside community arts initiatives.

The Illuminated River

The Illuminated River

The Illuminated River is a public art commission on an unprecedented scale: a unified installation conceived to light central London’s bridges along the River Thames for 20 years.

In 2016, the team led by the internationally acclaimed American light artist Leo Villareal, and renowned British architects and urban planners, Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands, were selected as the winners of the international design competition run by the Illuminated River Foundation and the Mayor of London. Their proposal is a kinetic installation which uses the power of light and colour to engage communities with a dynamic and interactive interplay with the river. This free public art experience will be the first time that the lighting of London’s bridges has been considered as a whole.

Caro Communications has been appointed by The Illuminated River Foundation to create a social media strategy aiming to engage with Londoners and promote key campaign moments.

Knight Dragon – Greenwich Peninsula

Knight Dragon – Greenwich Peninsula

Following our work together in early 2017 to launch Peninsula Place, Santiago Calatrava’s iconic scheme at the heart of the Peninsula, Caro Communications is now developing an overarching communications scheme designed to communicate the ambitious vision and celebrate key moments in the evolving story of this unique scheme.

Greenwich Peninsula is currently London’s largest, single regeneration project. The £8.4 billion transformation of the Peninsula over the coming years will provide 15,720 new homes in seven new neighbourhoods. It will be home to central London’s first major film studio, a new design district, schools, offices, health services and public spaces, all surrounded by 1.6 miles of the River Thames.

Our work will focus on media outreach, and wide public engagement, and commence to coincide with the launch of the site’s next residential phase, Upper Riverside.
