How to make an Art Portfolio?

Hey,
So I wanna study Architecture at University, and the Unis I've checked have said that they require either Art at A-Level, and if not, require grades AAA in any subjects along with a portfolio.
I'm pretty confident that I can come out with 3 As, but it's the fact that I have no experience in Art that's bothering me. I really don't know where to start. Advice would be appreciated
@PQ has made a great post here: https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?p=70087576&highlight= outlining some info about portfolios for architecture, and a number of links to portfolios submitted by successful applicants at the time of posting. Although the post is a couple years old and some of the links may not work, the advice and general level of work and style(s) used should still be currently indicative I imagine :smile:

PQ also made a handy thread about art foundation year courses, several of which offer pathways for architecture or spatial design, which may be good preparation if you have limited exposure to design work previously. It can be found here: https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=5017684
