Daniel Assael AAI | Assael Associates, Inc. 1144 Park Green Place Winter Park, FL 32789 RE: Assael Associates, Inc. Letter of Recommendation To Whom It May Concern: Recently, the Orlando Wetlands Park hired Assael Associates, Inc./Orlando Scale Models to build a model of the Orlando Wetlands Park. Daniel and Toni Assael met with City staff several times to design the concept and to ensure that the graphics were adequate. Then the Assael team went to work and created an incredible representation of the Orlando Wetlands Park. The Orlando Wetlands Park is 1,650 acre wetland treatment system with forests, marshes, 18 miles of berm roadways, pavilions, buildings, etc. The Assael model did an incredible job capturing the essence of the Park and telling the Park’s story in a 3 dimensional way. They were on time, on budget and exceeded staff expectations! Daniel and his team are truly creative and gifted in creating 3D models, I would highly recommend them for any creative endeavor. Sincerely, Mark D. Sees The City of Orlando Wetlands Manager Wastewater Division Public Works Department
To Whom It May Concern – I had the great joy of working with Assael Associates, Inc. on a photo opportunity project for the Hettema Group. Daniel, Toni and their team were outstanding collaborators and continually came to the table with wonderful design solutions. It was, far and away, one of the easiest, most successful creative relationships I have ever been a part of. The project finished ahead of schedule and under budget. And their design was an overwhelming hit. As a result of which, this temporary photo op was shipped back to company headquarters for permanent display. I hope that I have the opportunity to collaborate with them again soon. Sincerest Regards, Zane Jensch Director – Attractions & Exhibits Nickelodeon Experience Design

Our experience with American Custom Dollhouses, a division of AAI | Assael Associates, Inc.: More than three decades ago, a loving Grandpa hand crafted a dollhouse for his granddaughters. As sometimes happens, hard play and years of attic storage took its toll until the little house was in sad shape indeed. Something had to be done. After all, now there is a new little girl in the family (our granddaughter!), just six years old. What to do. As fate would have it, we found American Custom Dollhouses, and the little house has not been the same. No, strike that. It is the same, the same as when it was new and Grandpa’s little girls first laid eyes on it. After a meticulous restoration of our little fixer-upper by American Custom Dollhouses, Grandpa’s great-granddaughter plays with her beautiful dollhouse with the same joy that her Mom did years ago. With more little girls to come, we know that this family treasure will create special memories for generations to come. We strongly would recommend and refer Daniel and American Custom Dollhouses. Yours truly Daniel Lyons Florida
