Kirah Cahill

Kirah Cahill is graduating with a Master of Architecture from Stuart Weitzman School of Design at the University of Pennsylvania in May 2024. Her research and methodology is heavily influenced by architectural design and theory, although she is also interested in jewelry, fashion, biomimetics, and algorithmic design. Her work explores formal and textural aesthetics through computational modeling and digital rendering. These explorations are developed through a diverse use of design programs, with an emphasis on Rhino, Grasshopper, ZBrush, Houdini, Keyshot, and Unreal Engine.

Kirah was awarded the Lewis E. Dales Traveling Fellowship in 2023, the Will M. Mehlhorn Scholarship for excellence in history and theory courses in 2023, and the Metropolis Future 100 Class of 2024 presented by Metropolis Magazine.
