Screed Presentation Board Template
Title column on the right; Work Sans capitals throughout, brick 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.

Board by board
What goes on each board, and what a jury looks for there.
| Board | What goes here | What a jury looks for |
|---|---|---|
| Board 1 - Idea and project | Hero in the middle, concept and diagrams on one side, views and model on the other | Symmetry; the eye goes to the centre first |
| Board 2 - Drawings | Wall section at 1:20 beside a plan and elevation, details and materials | How it is built: build-up, junctions, materials named |
