How to apply
Email your CV and Cover Mail (no more than 250 words) with a Portfolio (compiled in a *.pdf smaller than 5 Mbs) to [email protected].
Protip: We’re pretty much image-focused and encourage you to think about the following: “A portfolio is only as good as the worst image in it.” Select the 6-10 best renders (mostly exteriors) that you think sum up who you are. 100-page-long portfolios are surprisingly easy to misjudge. Make sure your portfolio is compact and expresses yourself in a focused, condensed manner.
