7 websites you need to make your architecture presentation more expressive
After a brainstorming speaking about “how a post for architecture students can be viral” lasted more than 15 minutes, I stopped thinking with my brain and I waited for the exams session. “Yep, it would be useful” I said. So, when I started working hard on my project, and you know what I mean: no sleep, no eat more-then-10-minutes-cooked-food, no sunlight, I figured out what I needed. A list of the most useful website for making a better poster to convince that damned jury that your project is better than the others. “This is so POP”. “This is so Hipster”, yes, it is true, and I love it. Remember: it won’t make you a good architect, but at least it will help to show better what you have in your brain!
