Learn Upstairs – InDesign for Architects: All about portfolios!

Architects are always designing new projects and creating things, so a portfolio to show your skills and experience is vital. Learn in this course the essential techniques to create an outstanding portfolio.
A course made for Architects!​

Yes, we are aware that there are countless Adobe InDesign courses available, quite literally, a ton of them. However, none of them are specifically curated to architecture portfolios, and even more importantly, are designed with the needs of architects in mind.

Portfolio’s Core Elements​

Contrast, hierarchy, pace, whitespace, type of pages, purpose, and a lot more…
We value your time!​

We understand that architecture schools expect you to know how to build a great portfolio, but they often don’t teach the necessary software skills or the visual and composition techniques to effectively achieve that

As architects, we have to juggle multiple programs and skills, and our time is valuable. Focusing on the right tools and techniques helps us work smarter, not harder, making our designs really stand out.

So in InDesign, if you learn a handful of specific tools, some tabs and windows, a couple of important settings, and the core elements of creating an outstanding portfolio, you’re all set!
Creating a great portfolio is about reducing the visual noise and letting drawings and images shine.​

Spreads should have enough space so that the viewer understands each piece of information at a time. It’s less about the overall page design and more about the content in them!

Control the Narrative: A portfolio with pages allows you to shape the story and reveal information at your own pace, ensuring a compelling narrative.

Influence Attention: By utilizing contrast and hierarchy, you can guide the viewer’s focus to specific areas of the page and emphasize the most relevant drawings in each composition.

Streamlined Evaluation: Present a curated portfolio that allows for efficient assessment, making it easier for employers or universities to review your work.

Seamless Sharing: Easily send the document across multiple platforms, whether attaching it to an email or uploading it to online platforms like ISSUU
And why Adobe InDesign?

For those of you starting architecture school, you may be wondering why Adobe InDesign is the ideal choice over Illustrator or Photoshop.

While AI and PS excel in drawings, renderings, and single compositions, Adobe InDesign shines in organizing and cataloging your projects.

With InDesign, you can effortlessly create multi-page documents, including facing pages, which is vital to properly design spreads.

InDesign Templates

Included in this course is an InDesign template file with many examples for all 5 portfolio spread types.

The goal of this course is to empower you with technical and composition knowledge to create or update an existing portfolio.

While each portfolio should be distinct and unique, having a template can provide a helpful starting point. You can draw inspiration from the file, experiment with new ideas, explore different compositions, and adapt elements to achieve a result that truly represents your work.
