Pratt Shows
PRATT INSTITUTE
Identity, Motion
2024
Pratt Shows are public exhibitions and presentations by Pratt Institute’s graduating class. Representing years of research, exploration, critical thinking, creative inquiry, problem-solving, growth, production, practice, and accomplishment, the shows celebrate student work leading up to Commencement in May.
The Pratt Shows 2024 design concept, Organic Networks, explores ways in which the properties of mycelium, a fungal biomaterial used to insulate buildings and a communication network for trees, could be developed into a design system that pays homage to Pratt’s network, on campus and beyond, and Pratt Shows’ role in facilitating those organic networks.
As lead designer, I pitched, developed, and modularized the design system to unite all materials produced to promote Pratt Shows 2024 in both digital and print, from advertising and signage to websites, posters, wayfinding, motion, and more.
