Green

               What does being green mean to you?

Is it using organic products or car sharing, recycling or sustainable home improvements? We want to see the interesting, novel or old style ways you think will help Cornwall become a “greener” place to live.

Upload your shot with a short description.

Work

               What does working Cornwall look like?

Linked to Dott's New Work project, we want to find out what “Working Cornwall” looks like. So upload shots of yourself others carrying out your daily job so that we can begin to build up a picture of the industry that lies behind the beautiful scenery and classic holiday snaps of Cornwall that we all know and love. We want to create the ultimate “real snapshot” of Cornwall’s economy.

For example...What does it look like to work behind the scenes of some of the UK’s best hotels? Who is responsible for maintaining the wind turbines on the A30? What does the inside of a working meat processing factory look like? What is it like saving lives at sea or saving lives in hospital? Please share your working life with us.

Upload your shot with a short description.

Talent

                Are you a talented designer or budding designer?

Every picture tells a story and everybody has creative potential. So tell us your story and show us your work.

Upload a shot of your work.

Design

                     What designs have helped shape Cornwall?

It could be something which has been designed in Cornwall or something you think represents design in Cornwall.

Upload your shot with a short description.
