1 Choose relevant projects

The first step to creating a CAD portfolio that showcases your skills across different project types is to select the projects that best represent your abilities and experience. You don't need to include every project you have ever worked on, but you should aim for a balanced and diverse selection that covers different scales, styles, functions, and contexts. For example, you might include a residential project, a commercial project, a public project, and a conceptual project. You should also consider the purpose and audience of your portfolio, and choose projects that align with your goals and expectations.

First of all, organizing projects by type such as architecture, landscape, interior, ...etc. Then creating the most simple and creative projects to be easily recognized. Highlight key projects that represent your skills and capabilities in each project by adding detailed descriptions, images, renderings, and any special features. Showing technical detailed drawings of each project to show your designing and construction skills. And finally, keep your portfolio updated with new projects and also with new skills.

2 Highlight key features

The next step is to highlight the key features and aspects of each project that demonstrate your CAD skills and creativity. You should use a variety of CAD tools and techniques to showcase your design process, such as sketches, diagrams, plans, sections, elevations, 3D models, renderings, animations, and simulations. You should also explain the design concept, the challenges, the solutions, and the outcomes of each project, using clear and concise captions, labels, and descriptions. You should also include relevant information such as the location, the size, the budget, the timeline, and the collaborators of each project.

3 Organize your portfolio

The third step is to organize your portfolio in a way that makes it easy to navigate and understand. You should use a consistent and professional layout, format, and style for your portfolio, such as a grid system, a color scheme, a font type, and a logo. You should also use a logical and coherent structure for your portfolio, such as a table of contents, an introduction, a project list, and a conclusion. You should also use clear and catchy titles, headings, and subheadings for each project, and arrange them in a chronological, thematic, or typological order.

You should use your portfolio as an opportunity to express your unique voice and vision as an architect, and to show your enthusiasm and interest in different project types. You should also use your portfolio as a reflection of your values and goals as an architect, and to show your awareness and sensitivity to the social, environmental, and cultural aspects of each project. You should also use your portfolio as a platform to showcase your personal projects, hobbies, and interests that relate to your CAD skills and creativity.

n my opinion, assembling our projects into a portfolio format requires creativity, but simplicity is the key. When designing portfolio pages, adding excessive ornaments to borders or canvas can distract from the main projects and hinder them from capturing sufficient attention.

I totally agree with the simplicity of the presentation in the portfolio, personally I prefer a black background or a dark colour, I think the contrast with the project brings out the details and attracts attention.
