About

Scott’s work pursues a methodology where form embodies purpose, and sense of place is revealed through the careful intersection of program, site and culture. Since establishing Erdy McHenry Architecture with David McHenry, Scott’s design work has received many accolades from the local and national press as well as his peers and has received more than 30 state, local and national awards. In 2016 his firm was named Firm of the Year by AIA Pennsylvania.
His design for St. Aloysius Church was recognized by ArchDaily as one of the Top 100 Architectural Projects in the US and as one the Five Best Churches of the World by WorldBuild365. Beginning with the September 2001 cover story of Architecture Magazine featuring Southern Poverty Law Center in Montgomery, Alabama and most recently the 2013 July Cover of Architectural Record highlighting the Cornell Teaching Dairy Barn in Ithaca New York. Scott’s work has been recognized for the embodiment of both its cultural significance and utilitarian beauty.
Scott received his undergraduate degree from the Ohio State University and his master’s degree from Syracuse, where he studied under the stalwart modernist Werner Seligmann. He currently teaches a Graduate Housing Studio at the University of Pennsylvania lectures widely on his work.
