YKK AP releases “I am an Architect” trailer and announces AIA Orlando giveaway for video's premier

YKK AP America is debuting its sixth video—part of the “I am an Architect” series—at the AIA Conference on Architecture 2017 in Orlando this April 27.

This video follows a woman on her journey to become an architect in college and through her visit to Orlando. “The inspirational theme of the video,” said YKK AP America in a press release, “ties into AIA’s K-12 initiative to strengthen the pipeline for future architects, to enhance existing K-12 curriculum and to promote diversity and inclusion into the design curriculum.”

YKK AP America, which designs and manufactures aluminum fenestration systems, collaborated with University of Central Florida (UCF)’s 2+2+2 program and Orlando-based architecture firm HuntonBrady Architects to create the video. (The 2+2+2 program lets students earn an associate’s degree at Valencia Community College, a master’s degree at the University of Florida, and a bachelor’s degree at UCF.)

The first 100 visitors to reach the video’s premier at YKK AP’s booth at the Conference—Booth #3103, April 27, 11:00am—will get an exclusive “I am an Architect” giveaway.
