AIA Jersey Shore Past President, Marissa A. Iamello, AIA, Visits Wayside School

 

Marissa A. Iamello, AIA, volunteered to speak about architecture to a group of 3-year-old students at Wayside School as part of their learning unit on buildings. She discussed the role of an architect, the various shapes and sizes buildings can come in, and the different materials buildings can be made from. She explained to the students the process of how a house gets built, from design to construction, using an example of her recently built work in Holmdel, NJ. The class listened intently as she read the story of “Iggy Peck Architect”.  The presentation concluded with a scavenger hunt around the classroom of building components. Her daughter Kiera beamed with pride and assisted during each portion of the presentation.
