3. STRAW REVOLUTION
The Straw Revolution is a simple straw bale house located on the West Coast of South Africa. The owners offer the venue as self-catering accommodation for vacation rentals. They wanted to create a website and e-brochure to advertise the venue.

- Edited the final versions of both before ‘go live’.
