wow, an architect that designs his own toilets. now that's a commitment unseen since frank lloyd wright.

i think it's okay to use the blocks...

wow , an architect that includes architecture in his grad school portfolio. by comparison, i think my portfolio consisted of some t-shirts i designed and some cocktails that i invented...i don't think i bothered to include any actual architectural design

uh.... I am....

It's probably acceptable, but try to keep the blocks generic. "Dumb" them down if you need to - the block should not out-shine your own work in detail or design. I've seen basic renderings ruined by detailed corvettes. If you're using a proprietary CAD block, chances are there are way too many lines and too much detail (like window mullion profiles, etc.) anyways.

blocks are acceptable. NO good grad school cares how well you can detail a bathroom, i promise. they want to see your design work.

honestly id shy away from including too much linework in your portfolio. its boring, easily cluttered and easily forgettable.

one or two examples, just illustrating the fact that you understand PSE's but i mean thats really all you want.


NEUBAUWELT CATALOGUE. saves lives.

Depends where in the world you try to be admitted. They may appreciated cad blocks in Europe but in the US, you are better of showing unbuildable double curved facade and sculptural renderings.
