Millard T. Pratt
Project Desiger

Millard Ted Pratt has joined Huntsman Architectural Group as a Project Director and has merged his practice, MTP Architects, with the San Francisco-based architecture and interior design firm. A licensed architect in California and Michigan, Ted brings over 20 years of architectural experience in the design and construction of building and interiors projects. Joining Huntsman is the result of Ted's efforts to reposition his practice in the ever-changing market as well as a culmination of his life-long journey to improve clients' comfort, satisfaction, aspiration, productivity and wellness. This synergistic melding of Ted's boutique firm with Huntsman's national presence and comprehensive portfolio accomplishes these goals.

Ted's exposure to diverse cultures is the foundation for his affinity for the creative process. Raised in Morocco, England and Oklahoma, his studies of economics and architecture brought him to Florence, Italy. Ted later obtained his Bachelor of Architecture, Cum Laude from University of Idaho and his Master of Architecture from University of California, Berkeley. Additionally, he has a Bachelor of Science in Economics from Oklahoma State University. He then spent some time in Alaska, where he was a surveyor on the Alaskan Pipeline.

In 1991, Ted began MTP Architects, a multi-discipline design firm offering a full-range of architectural and interior design services to institutional, commercial and private clients. The firm's portfolio includes a myriad of project types, such as historic renovation, new core-and-shell mixed-use, retail, residential, hospitality, and office interiors for financial investment and banking, corporate and government clients. His designs have been featured in national architecture and design publications as well as on television programs. Ted's more recent projects include tenant improvements for Financial Engineering Associates in downtown Berkeley, a corporate office conversion of a former shopping mall facility in Michigan, a new corporate office building in downtown Danville, a new 15,000 square foot residence in the Berkeley foothills, and a renovation of the classic beach house in Stinson Beach.
