very many for some, not many for others

5, of course.

fuck you evan i thought it was 4

i'd say between 3.9 and 6.1 projects.

seriously though, have you read the portfolio guide in the archinect features?

people are going to give you shit about these kind of questions unless you "prove" that you've done your "research"

the number of projects to include in a portfolio depends on a number of variables, so to get an intelligent response to this post you're going to have to give us more information.

The number of projects to include in a portfolio will depend, mainly, on how many projects you *have* and how detailed those projects are.

If your background is in architecture, admissions committees will likely expect several thoroughly-detailed architecture projects, augmented (perhaps) by additional work - graphic design, sculpture, painting, etc. if your background is in the fine arts, you may have 20 projects, but only one page for each project. If your background is in another field, you might have to be creative.

I think you'll get more useful responses on here if you post what you've got already and ask for critiques. Ultimately, the portfolio is not about the number of projects, but the quality of those projects, and how you present them.

dude, chill ill jus include 4 projects, they are pictures of my peanut butter can with stnoes

I must be getting old, because I had no idea who or what a "marchi ptf" is or was until I scrolled down to the fourth response here.

no but seriously, is 20 too much?

what about 34?
