For over 15 years, Western Home Journal, the Mountain Home Architecture, Construction, and Design Resource has succeeded as a proven medium for speaking to a sophisticated mountain audience. Comprised of multi-channel efforts, the publication has regional print editions, digital campaigns, and a content-rich website. The print publications are published bi-annually, available free of charge, and distributed in highly-targeted locations throughout each represented region.
As more families and individuals of all ages move to or establish second homes in resort communities in the West, Western Home Journal has proven itself to be a top-tier resource in custom home design. Our purpose is to market the mountain home architecture, design, and construction industry to homeowners who projects range from simple room updates to luxury vacation residences.
