Liollio team members, Aaron Bowman and David Herrero recently participated in Charleston’s 2019 Reindeer Run. Presented by Half-Moon Outfitters, the annual Reindeer Run is a family-oriented, pet-friendly 5k run/walk through the lower peninsula of downtown Charleston SC. The event has grown significantly over the years; from only a few hundred participants to record attendance of over 3,500 runners.

Throughout the history of the event, the Charitable Society of Charleston (CSC) has donated over $1M to MUSC Children’s Hospital. Proceeds from the Reindeer Run are split between the campaign for the MUSC Shawn Jenkins Children’s Hospital and the Charitable Society of Charleston endowment. This endowment provides grants and donations to local non-profit organizations which benefit both children and elderly residents of the Lowcountry.

Children's STEAM: Young Architects

“We always love the opportunity to introduce kids to the world of architecture and design. ”

— Jennifer Charzewski, Principal

Liollio’s Jennifer Charzewski, Liz Corr and Mary Tran participated in the Full STEAM Ahead Program: Young Architects at the Charleston Main Library on November 14, 2017.

November is Native American Indian Heritage Month and Liollio’s program aimed to teach the young architects about architecture through vernacular housing types and the ways people built shelters with the materials from their environment. Different vernacular housing types were shown, and they discussed how groups of people respond to different climates. such as, keeping wind out and warm air inside in cold climates, using the sun for passive heating, and being naturally ventilated with breezes in hot humid climates.

The young architects then sketched a vernacular housing type for a location of their choosing and constructed a model of it. Materials such as sticks, clay and fabric were used to make Igloos, Tipis, earth huts, and many other innovative and imaginative structures.
