Bentel is a partner in Bentel & Bentel Architects/Planners, whose projects include award-winning designs for higher education, libraries, religious buildings, luxury hotels and some of New York’s most heralded restaurants. Established in 1989, the BFA Interior Design Department offers a four-year program that prepares its students to become the future designers of the built environment. Students learn to integrate current technology with the traditions of drawing and drafting, become proficient in the specialized language used by today’s preeminent design and construction firms and work hand in hand with architects, engineers and builders to envision and realize what it takes to turn design ideas into real spaces where we live, work and play.
