Footwear Design BA (Hons)
Your Portfolio
We believe that the quality of work in a portfolio is more important than the quantity, so we would only expect to see the work that you are most
pleased with and most proud of. Try to include about 15 – 20 pieces of work.
Your work should be laid out clearly so that it takes us through a visual journey and provides us with clear evidence of the logical progression
of your ideas and creative ability. The development stage of a project is just as important as the final idea. Exploring ideas and design development
can be shown through sheets in your portfolio, sketchbook or as models.
Our course focuses on footwear and accessory design so we’ll be looking for the following:
• Innovative thinking - evidence of unusual approaches to solving a problem
• Drawing skills demonstrating a range of techniques and styles
• Idea generation - quick initial doodles, sketches and thought processes
• Development of ideas - evidence of how you think
• An interest in footwear, fashion and product design
• Experimental approach in your 3D work to handling materials in unusual combinations
Most importantly we are looking for evidence of a passionate and inquisitive mind - feel free to bring us something unusual, something we’re
not expecting - something that’s not on the list.
