It is important for us to understand your creative choices, so the inclusion of research and the documentation of your material -and conceptual process in connection to the projects in your portfolio is highly recommended.

Another important thing: do not censor yourself by not bringing your personal sketch books because you think they are not attractive or professional enough! It is exactly this freedom of creative experimentation, which you often allow yourself to express in these books, that gives us a clearer understanding of your thought process, fields of interest and personality!
