Pacifiq Communities challenges property marketing norms, via Born campaign
Pacifiq Communities – a property developer and Riverstone Springs’ developer – has launched a campaign designed to challenge “the conventions of property marketing”, via Born.
The announcement:
Creative agency Born has partnered with property developer Pacifiq Communities, the developer of Riverstone Springs, to launch a new campaign that challenges the conventions of property marketing.
The campaign, simply titled “Designed for Real Life,” promotes the developer’s Riverstone Springs community in Riverbend, south-west Brisbane, but not in the way customers have come to expect from a property developer. Rejecting the stock-standard tropes of sun-drenched barbecues, flawless families, and over-polished promises, this campaign offers a more grounded, real take on what it actually means to buy land and build a home. The messages include “Bigger lots, because no one ever said they wished their lot was smaller” or “Designed by a family, not a focus group.”
Born’s creative director Jenny Lennon said, “Every property development brochure and billboard looks exactly the same—happy families, endless sunshine, and staged barbecues. It’s become laughable. If a brand wants to be real, authenticity has to start with its marketing. That’s exactly what we’ve done here.”
The campaign reflects the vision of Darwin and Michelle King, the family behind Pacifiq Communities, who have built their business on transparency, quality, and creating spaces that genuinely work for modern families.
“We’ve never wanted to sell a dream that doesn’t match reality,” said Darwin King. “What we care about is delivering something real. A real lifestyle. Real-sized blocks. Real benefits for real people. Born understood that from day one, and this campaign captures exactly who we are.”
The campaign rolls out this month across digital, cinema, outdoor, and print. It comes off the back of strong early momentum for Riverstone Springs, with Stages 1 to 3 selling fast, and almost sold out.
