Pratt interior design qualifying program


















Language of Drawing I introduces students to the communication of physical and conceptual ideas of space, materiality, light and construction. Emphasis will be places on developing methods of working across media, understanding the appropriate form and means of representation to develop literacy and resourcefulness in design drawing and communication.

Language of Drawing II emphasizes the representation of spatial, material, and sensual elements in existing, proposed and remembered environments.

The course focuses on using drawing and representation tools and techniques as means to analyze, distill and present complex information and ideas. Students are encouraged to develop and refine a personal representational language, building upon an understanding of graphic conventions. The course emphasizes the clarity and the expressive qualities of graphic communication applied to concepts of interior design.

Students study the design of large-scale spaces with an emphasis on planning institutional public and commercial spaces contract design work. The courses include an exploration of complete solutions to environmental, interior and architectural problems based on space analysis and planning.

Coordination of furnishings, materials, user needs and equipment is emphasized. Emergent Platforms introduces students to digital drawing, modeling and fabrication techniques, exploring the relationships between design, tools, and construction processes enabled through evolving digital platforms. Integral to the explorations will be an understanding of applicable materials-their effects, potentials, and constraints. Students will explore potential of digital technologies applied to various scales and applications across disciplines including furniture and objects as well as environmental constructs.

Through readings, discussions and assignments, this course introduces students to formal and material approaches to design and construction. Readings explore issues of aesthetics, form-making, materiality, spatial and atmospheric experience, decoration, and details. Writing and discussion will consider the design and fabrication processes, and how attitudes and interpretations of interior spaces are dynamic and changing. Through readings, discussions and assignments, this course students to psychological, social, and cultural approaches to design.

Readings explore issues of identity, home, public and private, and ethics. Advanced problems in design dealing with complex interior and environmental problems are presented in the fall semester.

It introduces the graduate student to the complexities of managing the execution of a contract interior project, including experience at a job site in progress. Students spend 7 days in Chicago, listening and talking to designers ande manufacturers about their spaces and products. If the thesis course is not completed in the initial semesters, students can continue working in INT for no more than five semesters.

This studio will Introduce students to the critical issues in the design of the Interior through a series of projects that conceptually and materially address program, site and cultural context.

Studio assignments provide opportunities for focused investigations within the interior environment via unique or prototypical projects, of varying scales and typo1ogies, and in response to considerations of social context, site and program.

The studio emphasizes a holistic, three-dimensional approach to problem solving including spatial manipulations and integrated investigations of materials, structures, light and color. Students undertake independent problems based on individual thesis proposals, submitted by the candidate and approved by the thesis advisor. Projects represent design solutions of significant scope and complexity and must show mature correlation between all phases of design and construction based on supportive research.

Students may also elect to pursue an academic research-oriented approach to study emerging issues in the interior built environment.

In this second semester of thesis, students continue their investigations of Independent problems based on individual thesis proposals, submitted by the candidate and approved by the thesis advisor.

This class introduces students to the concepts of digital model making, rendering and animation. New workflow options will be explored for enhances design production addressing the seamless transition from 2D to 3D, digital to physical models, conceptual to realistic design options and their visual representations.

The course will discuss the software in the context of the design practice as a generative, iterative and production tool. This course is an exploration of light, color and materials in the design of the interior used as a means of expression through three larger investigative modules: 1 integration of seeing: 2 integration of experience: and 3 integration of application.

The course will address sustainable practice, material research, environmental quality, aesthetics, and changing technologies as applied to light color and materials. This course examines the ways in which interior designers and theorists express and conceptualize the multi-dimensional field of interior Design and will include topics in social sciences, design history, taste, sustainability and ethical design.

This course will study the construction documentation process through the production of working drawings, models and schedules. Through a series of iterative steps, the evolution of a design from the concept through the model and drawings to the final fabrication and construction phase will be understood. Students will learn how the natural and constructed interior environment affects human comfort. Students will explore the science and technology for measuring and maintaining comfort conditions and ecological balance within buildings, with an emphasis on sustainable design and systems integration.

This program gives fourth-year, undergraduate architecture students the opportunity to live and study in Rome during the spring semester. The credit curricular structure consists of seven core credits in Architectural Design and Urban Studies. Emphasis is placed on drawing as a critical tool for analytical consideration of an urban area. In Scandinavia, the built environment is for people. Engage in explorations of Danish and Scandinavian design philosophies, combining strong traditions with the contemporary energy of the new wave or architect s and designers.

Capturing the Ephemeral Beauty of a Fall Day in Central Park Illustration students joined a reportage drawing gathering in the Manhattan park to sketch on-site and share their unique impressions of a busy autumn afternoon. In Mentoring Programs Students Learn to Support Each Other Now and in the Future Across Pratt, students are spearheading mentoring initiatives bringing together classmates, alumni, and professionals to create community and connections.

All classes will shift to remote delivery for the first two weeks of the spring semester. Read the email announcement.
