PWWG Architects

Say hello to Josh! 👋

Josh recently joined PWWG after relocating to Pittsburgh, bringing more than 12 years of experience on public education projects in the North Texas area. He is excited to explore Pittsburgh and the surrounding neighborhoods in search of fun restaurants and breweries.

He travels as much as possible, taking trips ranging from small nearby towns to state parks to international adventures; always trying to experience the architecture and culture of the area. He enjoys hosting and cooking fun dinners for friends and family, pulling ideas from the ever-growing cookbook collection. A particular interest is making scratch pasta dough and hand-forming pasta shapes.
For a much-needed escape, he loves watching movies in the theater on the big screen, or picking a movie from the collection and having a movie night at home with the cats. 🐈

We’re so happy to have you at PWWG!

🎉Welcome, Erin! 🎉

Erin is a Summer Intern at PWWG and is pursuing a Bachelor of Architecture degree at Carnegie Mellon University.

Erin joined PWWG to support its mission of advancing historic preservation and architectural craftsmanship in Pittsburgh. Coming from a family of artists, he is fascinated by how every stage of the design process—from massing and structural systems to detailing—can contribute to a rich and meaningful aesthetic experience.

Outside of architecture, Erin enjoys sketching urban scenes, artifacts, and people. He is also an avid runner, cyclist, and devoted listener of This American Life.

We’re thrilled to have you at PWWG!

Last week, members of the PWWG team presented at AIA Build Pittsburgh on the role of computational design in architectural practice.

Using 120 Cecil as a case study, Jennifer Szczesniak, Louis Suarez, and Miguel Perez explored how parametric workflows helped study façade variation, environmental performance, constructability, and cost efficiency throughout the design process.

The session also highlighted how computational design continues to shape the way we iterate, analyze, and explore design possibilities across projects and scales.

Thank you to and everyone who attended the session and joined the conversation!
