Michael Gerbino
Adjunct Professor
Michael Gerbino studied graphic design and photography at Pratt Institute. Prior to forming Archigrafika, he worked for Graphis, as the Director of Publications.
Michael's images and design programs are known for their simplicity and clarity, and are typically influenced by Modernism and Pop Art, but have a hard graphic twist. Michael's designs are large and playful while discretely blending into the urban landscape and architecture. His work encompasses a wide variety of assignments and media, including identities, environmental graphics, exhibitions and communications design for a broad range of international clients, institutions, public agencies and cultural organizations.
Michael is a Principal and the Creative Director of Archigrafika Inc. Their many prominent projects include the branding and signage of the newly renamed Willis Tower, formerly the Sears Tower, and the architectural graphics program for Trinity Church Wall Street and Myrtle Hall at Pratt Institute.
Throughout his career, Michael has coupled his professional activity with teaching and has taught Graphic Design and Senior Project at Pratt, his Alma Mater, since 1985.
Michael teaches Graphic Design I, Graphic Design II and Graphic Design Senior Project B/E.
