The Luminary

Leading Innovation in Dallas’ Historic West End

Laying the Foundation

401 North Houston is an existing building located in Dallas’ Historic West End. After purchasing the address in September of 2017, Crescent Real Estate constructed an idea to develop additional square footage to the building and lead the charge of Dallas’ new Innovation District. With a modern creative space within walking distance of downtown, this ideal venue was designed to serve as a hub for innovative startups and corporations in Dallas. The prime location provides tenants easy access to dining and entertainment throughout downtown. The purpose of the new innovation movement is to bring young, modern companies into a creative work environment while establishing the new vision for the historic West End.

Crescent Real Estate approached RFTB to establish the brand and key messaging that would communicate the building’s unique purpose and direction as leaders of creativity and innovation in the West End.

Announcing The Luminary

The name for the new building needed to be indicative of its vision and excellence. As a creative office space, the purpose of The Luminary is to inspire others and light the way for the new Innovation District.

Explaining all of the innovative features and amenities that The Luminary offers would take some energy. Utilizing the new name and brand, our team designed strategic marketing materials for Crescent to promote and advertise The Luminary across various media.
