Portfolio

A portfolio is a folder in A3 format, with ground floor plans, sections, atmospheric images and photographs of the models of your urban design plans. A portfolio gives a good idea of what you are able to, and thus also of your vision. A portfolio is in the field of Urban Design the instrument of choice to show your prospective employer who you are going to be; a portfolio inspires the imagination and says much more than a transcript.
After the course of your choice you have collected a comprehensive portfolio of professional products. The portfolio provides a picture of your development, and shows how you have approached an actual issue in the field.
