Recenzii

"Unlike “how to” instructional guides for compiling design portfolios, this book takes a serious and critical approach to portfolio development as it relates to design objective, narrative, and creation. As such, this is a one of a kind resource for professionals and academics in the design fields."
Fadi Masoud, University of Toronto, Assistant Professor of Landscape Architecture and Urbanism
