About

Daniel Lutze is an award-winning architect passionate about how architecture can facilitate the overlap between physical, mental, and emotional experiences in our surroundings. The studio projects completed during his time at Penn explore the capacity for architecture – both its physical manifestation and its digital representation – to connect humans across time and space through materiality, color, scale, and form. His work tightly balances deeply complex yet logical design with poetic and creative writing and representation to invite viewers into his world and understand his designs on an emotional level. Daniel received his Bachelor of Science in Architecture from Temple University and his Master of Architecture from the University of Pennsylvania.

He was designated as one of the top 100 graduating architecture and interior design students in the United States and Canada through Metropolis Magazine's Future100 program, received a Lewis E. Dales Traveling Fellowship, and was awarded an honorable mention in the 2022 Schenk-Woodman Competition. His work has been published in Metropolis Magazine, as well as volumes XI, XII, and XIII of the Weitzman School of Design's publication "Pressing Matters."

Daniel has experience working for several architecture offices including k YODER design, Page, FOX Architects, BIG, and Of Possible. He is currently a designer at 1100 Architect.
