Graphics Project is an annual series of lectures, discussions, and portfolio reviews exploring the role of graphic design within the field of architecture, and help students build a successful graduation portfolio. Organized by Yoonjai Choi, the series aims to inspire students to explore the format and narrative potential of the portfolio, while simultaneously unpacking the topics, tools, and trends of contemporary graphic design.

Lectures are mandatory for students required to submit a portfolio to graduate — M.Arch, MSAAD, and MSAUD — but open to everyone.
