The Client & The Brief

Realty Homeowners Association

RHA manages residential communities across Ajman, operating 40 elevators throughout its towers. Every resident notice was still going up on paper.

  • 01Notices — fee reminders, relocations, building rules — were printed and taped inside all 40 lifts, by hand.
  • 02Updates took days, and posters were often torn, outdated or inconsistent across cabins.
  • 03Paper notices left no room to display ads or generate ancillary revenue.
  • The goal: one modern, centrally-controlled channel to reach every resident instantly.
