trying to determine which to place more focus on...thesis book/design project or portfolio/CD's of past projects....between the two which would be more important to an employer for a recent M.Arch grad???

Portfolio is everything.

agreed. You can use your portfolio to demonstrate your range. However, make sure that your thesis book has a few really good pages that you can include in your portfolio.

a well put together and coherent thesis can serve as a portfolio. especially if it can demonstrate a complete and thorough process...i might be more interested in looking at that than i would at some project you did in first year...

The neglect of either is unpardonable. What is a portfolio, without your thesis as the most promising project therein?

that was really poetic, rationalist.

sorry, I've been reading a lot of Jane Austen lately. I meant it, though.
