Take half black and white and half color. It is much harder to take good b/w pics. He or she will certainly look at these first and probably just skimp over the colored one.

Pro Portfolio: DIY expert Jonathan Fong revamps his condo with color and humor

18.04.11

Every Monday we post a recently built, remodeled or redecorated home with commentary from the designer. This week:

Designer : Jonathan Fong, Style With A Smile

Location : Santa Monica

Project goal : To add color and personality to a cookie-cutter town house without doing any construction or major remodeling. Everything was white when I moved into my condo. Actually, it was worse: The walls were painted Swiss Coffee, which, contrary to its caffeinated namesake, was a real snoozefest for me. So I asked, “What can I do to bring joy to my home, so I’m happy whenever I’m in it?”

Designer’s description : The task seemed simple enough. With just 1,400 square feet that included a combination living/dining room area, two small bedrooms and a pre-fab kitchen, I could have just painted the walls and been done with it. But I got a little ambitious.

What should think about when developing your portfolio.

Graphic design portfolio & Wordpress

by lolage

I thought it would be best to have an original website showing off my design skills but this may proove to be a hard task with very basic XHTML/CSS hence the thought of wordpress. I'm looking at doing a portfolio website for my graphic design/photography.
