SynopsisAn insightful and unique childrens book about architecture has been authored by AIA Indiana member, Gary Vance, FAIA. This book is the second is the Kid Architect series and titled, " Kid Architect Goes to Indiana". It is a hardcover book oriented for children from ages 5 to 18 and, in addition, the book is of interest for adults from 18 to 95. The concept provides exploration, critical thinking and STEAM concepts in a fun, casual format for school-aged children. Future books will follow the fictional character, " Kid Architect ", around to cities, places, buildings, universities and public art throughout the United States ( and possible beyond ). One of the primary goals of the book is to introduce designa and architecture to young children in a fun and appealing way through the adventures and explorations of Kid Architect. Many children do not have personal interactions with an architect, so Kid Architect serves to help them learn and understand what an architect and other design professionals do. An additional goal of the book is make the design and architecture professions accessible to everyone. As a result, Kid Architect is not a specific gender, race, color, creed or is not an ethnicity or from any country. The book is designed for the reader to see themselves as Kid Architect and as the narrator during the exploration and adventures of architecture and public art and see the world around them in a new light. There are STEAM ( Science, Technology, Engineering, Architecture and Math ) exercises take the content of the book a step further by providing thoughtful hands-on chalenges that illumniate the text. Using everyday objects which are available in the home, children are presented with open-ended challenges directly related to topics in the book to inspire their creative problem-solving skills.
