Have you got any images of built work? Hand drawings? Lots of computer skills but missing craft. Depends where you're applying though. Hand sketches here and there rarely hurt.
Good diversity of projects otherwise. Length is quite ok for the level of study. Technicality is high.
Overall I find the colors way over saturated and the pages begging for white space. But again that's more up to preference. The landscape project is best represented imo.

Just curious, what kind of PhD would you be applying for and where? Am personally not a fan of illustrated software proficiency diagrams, e.g. "advanced" proficiency in some software, but according to whom? They look unprofessional in my opinion, you're either proficient or you aren't.

I second randomised's opinion. I find proficiency diagrams to be a dumb waste of space on a resume.

@archinine - Thank you for the feedback. I have a number of pictures from recent built work that i'll add. Hand drawings are quite few and putting them in is my challenge, i'd have to look around to see how others make it integrate well.
@randomised - I'm applying to a theory programme - urban studies at Cambridge and UCL. Looking to apply for the DDES at Harvard as well.

That's pretty ambitious. Good luck with that, I'll be jealous if you get in and get funding ;-)
Hello Archinect,
I have been reworking my portfolio in preparation for PhD applications and will be glad to get some reviews. Please find a link to it below
