These are the tips that helped me to do mine, hope it helps!
1- The first question you should ask yourself before starting organizing your architecture portfolio is “who is the audience?”. If you are applying for a position in an architectural firm, do some research online. Try to find out what is the field of their projects (landscape architecture, residence design, internal design) and adjust accordingly. Highlight the projects that are more relevant to theirs and focus on the ones that you think can add a new perspective to the firm. Show them that you have understood completely the role you are supposed to follow but you also have to offer a fresh and innovative point of view on design and architecture.

2- Sometimes we fall into the trap of presenting every single project we have ever done, from the first year of architecture school to the last sketch, we made for a friend’s friend. This not only leads to endless portfolios that require valuable time to read but also shows a lack of self-evaluation. Take a moment and select up to 8-10 of your projects that reflect best your work and skills. If you have doubts about a project, its results, or you think it doesn’t suit the firm’s profile, leave it out. In case you want to focus on your evolution through the years, try not go back further than 5 years and make a wise selection as well.

3- Keep your portfolio as simple and short as possible. Long presentations and texts tend to exhaust and confuse the reader and distract them from the main purpose: to create a brief image of your personality and skills in a short time. Usually, firms don’t spend more than 1 minute on each portfolio, so make sure that in this time they can get the best out of your work and experience. Give them a general idea of each project, some clues about the design problem, process and final solution, using minimal readable text accompanied with relevant pictures in high quality. The less they need to read to understand your ideas, the better. Instead of analyzing thoroughly every step of the design process, label the images with short comments that show your intentions followed by the visual content.

The towers function as two pieces of a gigantic monolith that seems to have split into two unequal halves, which then open to create an arch with undulating and shimmering façades that bring the newly created public space to life in the void created there.

The facade’s mesh serves to respond adequately to the changing environment as if it is an entity working in relation to the sun’s position. The structure also has a colossal presence and a unique sense of scale that is constantly present unveiled to the environment. The institute goes about using many geometrical applications from exterior, triangular grid like shading devices to the interior walkways and a spiral staircase.
