Global community of architects and creatives supporting students with portfolio development.
Portfolio Reviews
These one-to-one sessions are intended for students who are interested in architecture and those within various professions developing personal projects. This can be suitable for architects and non architects that want quick professional feedback on organizing their pieces, their content, presentation formats, ideas to improve, creating a portfolio, or simply asking questions about their work. Perhaps there are personal projects you are working on—book designs, art installations, photography works, etc. This can be your chance to present it to the reviewers within the various industries.
Our team
Our team is lead by Rafael Portillo, the director and founder of Artificial Kreativity. He is experimenting with a multidisciplinary approach to portfolio reviews by inviting a team of professionals from various creative industries to give feedback on your work. This can include architecture, art, photography, and graphic design. He believes creativity is not bound to one profession rather a creative ecosytem where collaborative thinking can foster new ideas
Our Story
Our story is based on Rafael’s more than 10 years of interviewing candidates for Cornell University’s architecture school in New York. After meeting many international applicants and reviewing their portfolios, he wanted to support the young community by exposing them to architecture and helping them develop their careers. In 2022 the Cross Pollinator Project was launched at the London Festival of Architecture and is currently reaching out to a global community of architects and creatives.
