Pratt Institute and the Myrtle Avenue Brooklyn Partnership (the Partnership) recently announced a collaboration to expand the reach of PrattCard, Pratt’s student and faculty identification card, to businesses on the Myrtle Avenue commercial corridor at the start of the Fall 2009 semester. Once in place, Pratt students, faculty, and staff will be able to put a cash balance on their cards similar to a debit card that can be used to shop or dine at participating Myrtle Avenue businesses.

Interior Design at Pratt provides the ultimate learning environment in New York City, interior design capital of
the United States, as well as a challenging course of study for students preparing themselves for a career in a field with enormous potential. It is widely acknowledged that interior design education, as it is taught across the United States, began at Pratt. That so many of our alumni are found in the Who’s Who of Interior Designers is no surprise. The Interior Design program is consistently ranked among the top in the country in an annual independent professional survey.
Students have the opportunity to study interior design as an integral element of the built environment: shaping space as well as planning and furnishing it. Light, color, form, and space are the classic elements of interior architecture with which students work in a series of design studies and related courses. At Pratt, students focus on a variety of interior design projects that grow more complex as the curriculum proceeds.
Presentation Techniques
INT-323
An intensification of INT-223 and INT-224. A study of presentation techniques is presented starting with a brief review of perspective drawing methods. The course develops the understanding of texture, tone, and color. Students focus on techniques of their own and develop varied rendering styles, including the incorporation of digital drawing and rendering techniques.
2.00 credits
Environmental Theory
INT-332
Students study the human and social impact of the built environment upon the inhabitants of that environment, physically, emotionally and psychologically. The development of research techniques are an integral part of these studies.

Building Construction I
INT-315
An introduction to construction details and materials through the process of working drawings and detailing. Lectures and discussions of interior and cabinet work detailing is stressed. Emphasis is given to mechanical systems such as heating, ventilation, air conditioning, plumbing and electricity and the integration of these systems as design elements, as well as building codes and other regulatory standards.
2.00 credits
Architectural Drawing I
INT-223
An introduction to the process of visual communication for interior designers. The first semester (INT-223) begins with a review of the proper use of drafting equipment, through the development of two-dimensional drawings such as floor plans, sections and elevations. The course then focuses on three-dimensional drawings: axonometric and isometric paraline projection with limited perspective techniques.
2.00 credits
Lighting Design I
INT-221
A fundamental course in lighting and its interaction with visual perception and aesthetics. The basic functions of lighting are studied, analyzed and critiqued as design elements, and students are asked to transfer this information to lighting plans and specifications. Wherever possible, field inspection of lighting installations adds to the theoretical information presented in the classroom.
2.00 credits
Design I
INT-201
These courses deal with our relation to space, form and the environment in a broad sense. Emphasis is on human factors, scale, materials and structures. The courses progress from abstract to problem-solving through analysis and include consideration of professional design problems of modern scope.

Color and Materials
INT-216
This is an introduction to materials used as a means of expression by the interior designer. A systematic approach to selecting interior color and materials is offered. The course examines the functional and aesthetic properties of specific interior finishes to a given interior.
2.00 credits
Professional Practice
INT-431
This course focuses on the practice of design as a professional business, including the skills required in office management, the marketing of professional services, and client/contractor relationships. It prepares the student both for employment as an interior designer upon graduation as well as for future opportunities as a manager of designers and/or the development of their own design firm.
2.00 credits
Portfolio Development
INT-424
A continuation of the Architectural Drawing III course, this involves the development of the process and techniques required to convincingly articulate design solutions. Students are assisted in exploring new presentation styles through refinement of both past and present class design projects. Photography and digital drawing techniques, useful in portfolio development, are studied in class.
2.00 credits
Working Drawings I
INT-415
A synthesis of all technical information into a complete set of working drawings based in part on projects developed in Design IV.

Construction Systems
INT-215
An introduction to the structural principles and construction methods of buildings that assists students in understanding how buildings work from a structural and materials objective to enable actualization of an interiors project. Interiors structure and construction are examined, and students begin their first technical drawings of interior construction elements. They study the construction process and the people involved. Structural and architectural materials are presented to further the understanding of buildings, the "given" of any interior project.
