Balintore Castle

History
Balintore Castle is a Victorian Category A listed building in Scotland. The castle occupies an elevated site in moorland above Balintore village, a few miles north of the Loch of Lintrathen, near Kirriemuir, Angus. Balintore Castle has been hosting guests since the 1860s and now the owner is restoring it back to its original state.
Gate Lodges Project
I was asked to create a visualisation for their gate lodges.
The client plans to convert this ruin into rental cottages to raise funds for the restoration of the castle.
At the moment, it's sitting waiting to be restored into something wonderful!
BEFORE - A RUIN....
AFTER - A COTTAGE
Balintore Castle Open Day
For their open day, I was asked to create a brochure for the public. The client asked for a simple black and white brochure showing all the details- (contact details, social media, and rules of the day) and a map route of the castle ground with directions and symbols.
The client was delighted with what I came up with - it was exactly what they were looking for. On the open day with my help of the brochure - they had over 500 people showing up which is amazing.
More to Come!
Free hand drawings/sketches
D.J. asked me to create a brochure with some sketches of Balintore Castle to enhance some 3D free hand drawings.
The client also wanted the brochure to be black and white - with one side of Castle's information and the other the map of the routes.
The client was very impressed with my drawings as he was never expected to be this perfect for his brochures.
