The Innovation Summit in Social Housing 2025 spanned three days (23-25 April) and brought together national leaders, developers, banks and innovators to tackle the housing challenge in Bahrain.
Limefish was commissioned to develop the full branding scope, from visual identity and event materials to spatial graphics and digital assets, for the client partnership of Eskan Bank and the Ministry of Housing.
Challenges & Objectives
- Create an identity that signals innovation, inclusion and long-term social value within the housing sector
- Align visuals and messaging across public-sector and commercial banking stakeholders, ensuring trust, authority and accessibility
- Deliver adaptable brand assets for event use (conference, exhibition, signage, digital) and extendable post-event for legacy value
- Reflect Bahrain’s national housing ambitions and the summit’s aim to enhance access, collaboration and technology in social housing.
Our Approach
- Brand Identity – We crafted a clean, modern branding system paired with a bold color palette inspired by Bahrain’s built environment and future-thinking architecture.
- Narrative Messaging – We developed a concise positioning line (“Building Better Homes, Together”) to unify the summit’s agenda across speakers, sponsors and exhibit zones.
- Visual Language – Iconography representing housing units, community connections and innovation nodes was developed to underpin the event’s themes. Espousing simplicity and modularity to reflect social-housing units and collective living spaces.
- Application – The identity was applied across venue graphics, wayfinding, digital screens, printed collateral, social posts and sponsor-kits.
- Legacy Design – All assets were delivered in modular formats so other vendors can re-use the core identity beyond the summit for future housing initiatives and communications.
Outcomes & Highlights
- A unified brand look and feel that elevated the summit’s professional tone and supported the client partnership of government and banking sectors
- Seamless integration of event materials across physical and digital environments, ensuring consistent brand presence for attendees, exhibitors and sponsors
- A refreshed visual identity that communicates innovation, accessibility and social impact, setting the stage for future housing-strategy communications
- Positive feedback from stakeholders and sponsors, reinforcing the brand’s ability to adapt from event to ongoing housing programs
