I graduated in 2010 with a BSc In Architecture. For almost year now, I've been working as an assistant architect. I hope to set feet in school in 2012.
Is the table of content font different from the rest of the portfolio?
For what purpose were you a peripatetic? Traveling for studio purposes? For work? It may be helpful to explain that, or just get rid of the page altogether and have travels listed in your resume. From pg. 27 (angst lecture series) on, I'm just wishing for a bit more detail/description. Was that remodel done at a firm? Was it actually built? etc. I didn't carefully read the text, but I'm liking the layout, the process images.
You seem to like multi-colored images and use them everywhere, but if you used it more selectively it might have a greater impact. There are some elements, ex. B&W photos, plans, etc. which really only need to be black and white.
The picture of your rough study model seemed kind of large, drawing attention to its crude nature - in general I would make pictures of rough models smaller and crafted models larger.
i'm just curious, which schools are you applying to with this portfolio? i thought most schools have a standard size for portfolio, which is 8.5 inch X 11 inch.
A Draft Architectural Portfolio for School Admission. Help.

This is my draft portfolio.

I am planning to use this, in order to get myself to a good school, in obtaining my first degree (RIBA Part 2) or anything equivalent.
Please do comments and critics, for I am still polishing it up, and needing to know the right direction.
Thanks,
Shiela.

Thank you to both of you for the critics. I will polish this up and respond. Cheers.
hi shiela,

Hi Morgan,
I'm aware of it, but it says that the size must not limit 8.5inch X 11inch. So I'm interpreting it can be lesser.
