Liollio’s Alison Dawson Achieves Architectural Licensure
Mez Joseph
Liollio Architecture is pleased to congratulate Alison Dawson, AIA, for earning her architectural licensure and becoming a member of the American Institute of Architects (AIA), a professional organization for architects in the United States. A registered architect must complete an internship and pass a rigorous series of examinations offered by official architectural registration boards in the United States and Canada. The Liollio team celebrates Alison and her achievement.
A native of Charleston, Alison earned her Bachelor of Arts in Architecture at Clemson University and Bachelor of Architecture at North Carolina State University, graduating with honors. As a student, Alison tailored her studies toward areas of interest such as urban design, regional infrastructures, sustainable systems and the history of American cities. She spent a semester abroad in Barcelona, cultivating a deep appreciation for the coexistence of preservation and current technology in the built environment.
Alison’s work at Liollio has varied, strengthening her design, attention to detail, communication and collaborative skills. Her recent work includes Brighton Park Swim Club, addition/renovation work at Charleston International Airport and preservation/renovation to Charleston’s Old City Jail. Alison is also very active as a Student Mentor in the ACE Mentor Program of America Charleston Chapter and was honored as one of Charleston Regional Business Journal’s 2016 Forty Under 40 recipients.
