Dear Mr. Atkinson,

I am very pleased to be applying for a position as [Job Position] at [Firm X]. I graduated from [The Bartlett School of Architecture] in [London], and recently earned an architecture degree from the California Supplemental Examination [License Number]. My educational background and experience are well-matched with the job advertisement on [website.com] under section [Careers at].

To shortly introduce myself, my name is [Name Surname], and I currently produce design and construction document drawings for [ZGF Architects]. I noticed that [Firm X] has been engaged in large-scale architectural projects with a focus on sustainable design to tackle global warming and resource scarcity. I admire [Firm X’s] mission to minimize the negative environmental impact of buildings by efficiency and moderation in use of energy, materials and development space. I am convinced that my technical expertise and ambition can contribute to current and future projects.

With more than 5 years of experience in sustainable architectural design and drawings, in particular elevations, I can contribute to high-rise projects. Between 2015 and 2020, I was involved in the technical design of [Project X] and [Project Y], but also assisted senior architects during on-site quality control checks and on-site inspections. In my portfolio, you can see the construction detail and plan arrangement. Noticeable is my experience with [computer-aided design software (CAD)], but I also possess soft skills such as: vender, task and time management.

Attached is my resume and portfolio for your review and consideration. I firmly believe that my experience in sustainable design and proficiency with the major ArchiCAD and AutoCAD software systems can contribute to current and future projects. If you need any additional information, don’t hesitate to contact me at [Phone number] or [Email address]. Thank you for your review of my application.

Best regards,
