HI, everyone, I’m a landscape architect but would love to try and apply jobs at architecture firms or firms that do both architecture and landscape. I could use some advice to point out my blind spot and see how I can improve my portfolio.
I like the lego model photos! The historic coastline diagram was neat as well. Overall, it looks a little uncooked/light. I'm not saying more pages equals better, maybe just some further thought put into the actual buildings, construction details, space/flow/program diagrams. It just seems noticeable that the work is predominantly landscape work. Maybe that's to be expected considering your work history.

Thank you for your advice!
I do feel that most companies will only have time to browse through portfolios and, therefore, I condensed most of the projects and tried to let pictures do the talking. But I see how adding more detail will make the project and my skills seem more convincing. Although I’m not sure if I should add construction details for there’s a great chance I might get it wrong, I’ll definitely take your advice and add more diagrams.
Last but not least, I’d like to ask for your opinion in whether I would add more architecture projects or to complement the existing project would be good? I thought the demonstration of skills will overlap quite a lot, since my knowledge in architecture design is rather shallow, so I only come up with two in the first place.
