Intro
ITAV “It Takes a Village” Development provides high-quality, culturally responsive real estate developments that revitalize neighborhoods by using community-based assets to effect positive change. Their goal is to be a thought leader in transformational commercial real estate development by using community-based assets as development anchors.
ITAV Development was originally founded in 2007 as It Takes a Village Family of Schools with the goal of addressing a critical need to develop a high-quality early childhood educational facility on the West Side of Chicago. In 2017, ITAV Family of Schools began its search for a new school campus that would educate children from pre-kindergarten to 12th grade. During the site selection process, ITAV Development was activated and the idea of community-based asset real estate development was formed. In 2022, ITAV Development decided to take more of a hands on approach to commercial real estate and economic development.
With a growing team and more projects under their belt, they decided it was time to start building their own digital presence, separate from that of their parent organization ITAV Family of Schools. We were retained to build their website and are currently under discussion to supply more of their marketing needs.

We were brought on in May 2022 to build a website under a tight schedule. We had exactly one month to create a landing page from scratch, as the client had a conference in June 2022 and wanted to launch the website prior to that date. We were asked to utilize the same style guide as was used for ITAV Family of Schools to remain visually consistent between the two organizations. Upon their launch in June, we developed the other pages and updated the site from the original single landing page.
