Architecture portfolio review
Hello!
I'm trying to apply for M. Arch in Europe (my first option is Polimi) and I'd like to get some criticism/advices on my portfolio. What can I improve? The projects is it good enough to be accepted in a good university? Should I attach one more project?
- Design a cover that makes people want to flip through the folio
- Add a proper back page to finalise the folio
- Be more selective of what you show (and what not) and how you show it (e.g. 3.5 spreads for that 1st project?). Build a narrative for the portfolio.
- Typography (and graphic design) can be your friend
- Edit your texts, don't over explain; you're audience are professionals. And spell check and proof read the hell out of it (especially your letter)
- More specific: why orphan your Tokyo Pop Lab image/opening page next to your letter? I'd move it one page to make a stronger opening spread of the project.
Thank you, I will consider and try to improve
Good luck and enjoy, it should be fun to make a portfolio.
needs bigger text, more ego
needs more ego? not something typically lacking form these types of folio threads.
woosh
I guess your sarcasm detector is in the shop
More ego is good kkkkk. Do you have a good example to show? I'm not good with this memorial texts, any help is welcome.
i thought it was obvious that i was making fun of your poor presentation. non sequitur is a bit dense
