ERICK REIFER

Brooklyn

Summary

I am a fifth-year architecture student at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn. My design approach is grounded in observation, shaped by photography and experience across studio and professional environments in the U.S. and Europe. Through internships at international and New York–based practices, I have worked on competitions, adaptive reuse, research, and representation, informing my interest in architecture at both the urban and human scale. I am drawn to projects where material, atmosphere, and everyday use evolve together, and I see architecture as a collective practice that strengthens the social and spatial life of a place.
