I have some architecture models and 3D progression work, and I was wondering if i should include text explaining some of what I did? Also, does anyone know if schools prefer slides or a printed portfolio?

For architecture work, I have some sections outlining primary and secondary circulation as well as private and public spaces for a building I designed in a summer program. Should I include my plans with the model? Should I include any writing about why I used the materials I did, or in general explaining my logic behind it?

As far as my 3D work, its purely conceptual design work which doesnt make much sense without an explanation, so should I definitely include it for these?

Also, if any of you older or experienced architects and students would like to give me some feedback, I would really appreciate it. (I can PM it to you)
