This whimsical architecture-focused story “Iggy Peck, Architect” is read by Peter Exley, FAIA, founder of Architecture Is Fun (architectureisfun.com). Mr. Exley also happens to be the American Institute of Architects’ president-elect for 2021 and we suspect that his architecture alter-ego might just be young Iggy Peck! Listen in, watch, and see for yourself.

This presentation was made possible by the Frank Lloyd Wright Westcott House.
