I paid $465 to Fiverr artists to make my Architecture Portfolio

[@doclacrosse39]

What a great video, really enjoyed it. I would definitely go for Tier two and make minor alterations myself

[@AshleyLowis]

the first wasn't that great but passable. The 2nd felt more like how a portfolio should be but had some issues (the best one overall though), and the third visually bothered me in some pages that it ruined the flow.

[@amruhusain8168]

2 second one is definitely the most bang for your bucks

[@flow_leit]

Yeah with no doubt the last one is my favorite. You can clearly see they working in and for publication/print. Very good use of grid with subtle changes, perfect use of white space, good hierachy in all elements. Last but not least very modern layout, you could easily use the same layout to start a web version with some interaction / motion. I think for the price it's totally worth it. I'm working as a designer specialise in print and where i work, the cost could be higher because for a custom project you spend a lot of time on the "thinking part", way more time than the execution part. I guess this designer has some personnal templates to start and then adapt them to the client to have a cost a bit lower. Anyway nice video. PS : Sry about my english it's not my native language and oh boy i was bad at school in english lesson.

Awesome video! For me, the second portfolio was definitely the most impactful out of the three. The first page sets the tone well and invites you to look at the portfolio as if you were to read a story. The hierarchy between the images and text is very well balanced, giving most of the attention to the visuals, which are the main anchors of the portfolio. While this portfolio is definitely more on the safe side, it does its job well and there's a reason we don't fix something that isn't broken. While I liked certain decisions in portfolio #3, it felt scattered and random. The images were scaled down leaving a lot less impact than they would otherwise, the white space was inconsistent which broke the rhythm of the portfolio and the fifth project was presented in a different style than 4 previous projects, which makes little sense and seems rushed. I think this artist tried to make a unique portfolio for the sake of it being unique, while sacrificing the function and impactfulness of it.

Really interesting and helpful. The story-telling in the Tier 2, if someone would flick through the portfolio it would still communicate a comprehension of the projects. I also liked the Tier 2 use of text. I felt the Tier 3 needed to amplify the images more. Really show off and be louder about them. It looked a little like a fashion magazine layout, but didn't communicate the design process, or which skills to amplify to the person reading it. But I think your own portfolio you have is the best one I've seen though.

The third one is best for one glance view, barely any text

[@katya-suleymanova]

I really don’t understand how someone can make a portfolio based on not own works. Besides beatiful pictures Portfolio includes designer’s mind and methods he used to create final product. How can stranger visualise everything? If client who do design too (i consider even architectors and cg-artists must have basic graphic design knowledge) give a whole information about creation stages in one complete file (ms word or pdf file), isn’t it easier to build portfolio himself?

[@chilombe]

He already has a portfolio himself. This was just an exercise to see how another person could design his portfolio.

[@bujowithzozo]

so interesting! love seeing the different tiers, also never thought about an end page before this video! going to add it to mine now :)

[@ArchiHacks]

Glad you found this helpful!

[@chilombe]

Great video: Nice seeing your awesome portfolio content put into Tier 1, 2, 3. I would say the way you had a 'cinematic' layout was great, (of course that reference is not in this video). But regarding this video, Tier 2 wins for me, hands down.

[@polarbear6597]

I think the first designer paid attention quite well on the adjustment of individual images but kinda messed up on the portfolio layout.

[@engineeringlife6478]

Off course the third one doesn’t have any architectural knowledge and charges the most 😂 however I agree with you, I liked the difference than what we usually see in the architectural portfolios… she could do much better if you have instructed her a couple of times.. I would like to see how would she changes after that… lol just curious

[@Qbanpensil]

The fact that you provide really good feedback :) it's really helpfull for those artist and new artist :D .

[@hkn_clk]

Which program did you use to create this beautiful isometric project? Revit?

[@ArchiHacks]

Which project are you looking for?

[@hkn_clk]

@@ArchiHacks in the 6.55" or 12.40" details and sections. By the way, is sketchup better or rhinoceros? I offer my respects and wish you good luck.

[@ArchiHacks]

Those are modeled in Rhino and exported to illustrator for color and lineweights!

[@ArchiHacks]

I have only used Rhino, and it's been good for me so far! All the work places I have been to used Rhino as well

[@hkn_clk]

@@ArchiHacks It's a very good choice, I'm installing it now and I plan to learn this beautiful program as soon as possible. I wish you good luck.

[@bennettr9218]

I could see you were withholding your judgement on the 3rd one because it was the most expensive. In my opinion it was the worst one! 😬

[@ariafa]

It really great i enjoy your explanation

[@killerofprimes]

I think the reason the third artist's portfolio stands out is their appreciation for white space and typography hierarchy

[@henryasokan3503]

me who uses canva; "happy tears"

[@Dr.Kananga]

Stop using Fivr, it's the tobacco industry of design.

[@saxon10]

Lol wht

[@Dr.Kananga]

@@saxon10 it's cancer.

[@thetanking1846]

I dont understad the metaphor.

[@alexlin9357]

totally agree. $25 or $200 doesn't mean anything, one could be in a village in India one could be in Australia. Totally different wage. the Australian couldn't compete due to the high living expense. Also i don't think anyone using legit softwares can compete with them. the pay can't even cover the software cost.

[@CakarMert]

3rd one is bad
