Patrick Pendergast is a junior at the University of Pittsburgh, majoring in the design track of the Architectural Studies program, and minoring in Studio Arts. Patrick grew up in the small town of Wyomissing, PA, where he discovered his interest in the built environment. His architectural career began with 3D SketchUp modeling in high school, as well as developing set designs for the school theatre program. Since his arrival at Pitt, Patrick has significantly expanded his architectural and design vocabularies through the studio, architectural history, and architectural theory classes. He enjoys the outdoors immensely, and was a youth summer camp counselor for three years leading up to his post-secondary schooling: this taught him the patience, determination, and problem solving skills that have supported his career at Pitt, as well as motivating many of his design decisions.
At HAAAARCH!!!, Patrick will be presenting his final model from Foundations Studio 1.
