Wenford Dries is a destination designed for escape, born of a passion to create the ultimate refuge from city life on the site of a former clay drying factory in North Cornwall. Comprising expansive loft-style homes, artist studios, allotments and wild gardens in a location of outstanding beauty, Wenford Dries will be a unique idyll.
The brief was to communicate the vision and evoke a sense of place to investors and off-plan buyers. The theme of ‘A place for all seasons’ underpinned the curation of content resulting in a suite of collateral that included an informative architects pack and an emotive lifestyle magazine. Together they showcased the ambition of the architecture, interior design and the stunning diversity of the North Cornish landscape with a collection of photographs by artist Harry Cory-Wright.

Hi!
My Name is Derek Ortega. Im currently a student at Art Center College of Design and was making a scholarship portfolio and love the Wenford Dries portfolio. Was this handmade, or was it outsourced?
Just curious because im looking to outsource a portfolio of mine. Thank you so much for your time.
