I'm not going to read that text. Downsize.

I don't know, are you applying for a graphic design program? Typically people show some interest in buildings based on whatever experience they have or early classes.

that may be the worst portfolio cover I’ve seen in the last few years

If this portfolio is for graphic design, I think its ok, and I'll change the cover ASAP

Jpeg, glad to see you took our suggestions about progress work to heart.  Looking much better but like those above me say, do something about that cover page.  

Honestly, I clicked on this just to see what the fuss was about regarding the cover page.  People are right; it needs more tlc.

I personally would appreciate if you reformatted so that all projects begin either on the left OR right side of the spread - not both.  Decide how many pages you want to dedicate to each project and edit down to that.  Also, it wasn't clear to me that the renderings and fine arts pieces were separate from the 'flood' project.  Why do those not have a title like the other projects?  If you do include those, I'd edit down to one spread.  Have a dedicated back page - can be just plain white.

Personally prefer blue only:

I like how the navigation of the projects is both represented on the cover and on the bottom edge of your pages, something different at least. Don't really like it that projects spill over to the next spread so the opening page of the new project is on the right side of the spread, I'd make each project an even number of pages, thereby you also could be a bit more generous with the Seekly project.  And give the document a back cover, finishing with those artworks feels unfinished.

Point taken on the cover page. Randomised seems to be the only one to have interpreted the cover page as a table of contents, but one for five isn't a great outcome so I'll consider changing it.

Start projects on even pages: got it. Although it seems to be a quirk of Issu that it defaults to spread view instead of single page view. In a pdf reader it should display as single pages, making the problem less apparent.

The last two pages with fine art pieces I just threw on there so you all could tell me if they should be included; it's for that reason that I didn't give them a very formal treatment. I'd appreciate any advice on which I should include, if any.

Thank you all for your comments so far!

which schools are you considering? this still has a long way to go if you’re looking at the usual archinect suspects
