Studio review set
Parapet Presentation Board Template
Title column on the left; Space Grotesk capitals throughout, swiss palette. A presentation-board template for architecture students: every board shares one title block and sits on a 24 x 24 grid, so a jury reads the set as one piece of work.

What goes on each board, and what a jury looks for there.

|---|---|---|
| Board 1 - Process | Process text and brief over a 4 x 3 matrix of iterations | Process and iteration: decisions, not volume |
| Board 2 - Drawings | Three plans in a row, two elevations and the key below | A consistent scale and line weight across every drawing |
