Marleen Kay Davis, FAIA ACSA Distinguished Professor Former Dean mkdavis@utk.edu 865.851.3911

I am honored to nominate Douglas McCarty for elevation to Fellowship in the American Institute of Architects. I have known Doug for my entire professional life, overlapping on design projects, collaborating on community issues, working together in efforts related to the University of Tennessee, and comparing notes often as our respective careers advanced. Knoxville is a better place because of Doug McCarty’s design leadership over fifty years, with one of the oldest community design centers, with the inspirational design work by his architectural firm, and with his collegial generosity and mentorship for many generations of architects in the state. Founded by AIA East Tennessee in 1970, the East Tennessee Community Design Center (ETCDC) is one of the oldest continuously operating design centers in the United States. Since his graduation from architecture school, Doug McCarty has been a key leader for the Design Center. He served for over 40 years on its board, keeping the organization idealistic, relevant, and solvent. As the ETCDC celebrates its 50th anniversary, it has impacted thousands of citizens in 16 regional counties. Over 1,000 community projects range from modest landscape improvements to design visions for non-profits that seek professional services. The impact of this work has been extensive and significant. Doug McCarty joined the Knoxville architecture firm originally founded by his father, Bruce McCarty, FAIA. Doug has been the design principal, regularly restructuring the firm leadership over time. He has been involved in hundreds of projects in the region, which have impacted users and set high standards for design excellence and client satisfaction. While design is a collaborative team effort, two award-winning projects demonstrate the design leadership of Doug McCarty.

The Art + Architecture Building at the University of Tennessee was designed as a learning tool for architecture students, with exposed structural and mechanical systems defining a variety of spaces creating a sense of community. The A+A Building is a primary recruiting tool for new students and faculty. Like so many other faculty, I regularly use the building to demonstrate important design and technology concepts. The building continues to inspire. The ambitious renovation of the 1,400 seat Historic Tennessee Theatre presented numerous challenges related to historical accuracy, updating technology, structuring a cantilevered stage, and fundraising. In his collaborative spirit, Doug assembled teams of experts, insuring the success of the project. Not only did the successful renovation serve as a catalyst for the revitalization of downtown Knoxville, the use of historic tax credits served as a model for other renovations in the state. Finally, Doug McCarty is a colleague in the best sense of the word. He has been an active member of the AIA, and many generations of leadership in the AIA have come from his firm. He has invariably supported the University of Tennessee architecture program, with great generosity and with his firm’s involvement in many courses and student events. Within his firm, he has navigated many leadership transitions, creating a positive firm culture. As a role model who consistently demonstrates a great work ethic, deep integrity, enthusiasm, and genuine respect for others, Doug McCarty has influenced many who have worked in his firm over the last fifty years. Fellowship in the AIA recognizes exceptional work and contributions to architecture and society by colleagues. Doug McCarty merits this recognition, with his life-long dedication to making an impact with his enthusiastic work in East Tennessee. Sincerely,

Marleen Kay Davis, FAIA ACSA Distinguished Professor


SECTION 1 | SUMMARY STATEMENT DOUGLAS H. McCARTY, AIA A warm, generous and enthusiastic servant leader, Doug McCarty has made a lasting impact in his community through his firm, his commitment to the East Tennessee Community Design Center, and mentorship. Leading a Legacy Firm Founded in postwar Knoxville, McCarty Holsaple McCarty (MHM) quickly became a leading architectural firm for major civic, institutional, and innovative residential projects, with national design recognition. While the firm principals have changed over time, the firm’s primary identity derives from one of its founders, Bruce McCarty FAIA, and his son Doug McCarty, who joined the firm after graduation from architecture school in 1973. At age 34, Doug assumed the leadership of the fifteen-year-old firm, which had just lost a third of its staff to a firm split, while the local economy was undergoing a fiscal shock with the collapse of the region’s two largest banks. Today, McCarty Holsaple McCarty Architects, Inc. (MHM) is responsible for many iconic civic structures, such as the Knoxville Convention Center, the Tennessee Theatre restoration, the Amphitheatre at the World’s Fair site, the McGhee Tyson Airport Terminal, and numerous projects at the University of Tennessee, including the award-winning Art + Architecture Building. Under Doug’s leadership, MHM has successfully collaborated with national firms, bringing the best design to East Tennessee. In important public/private partnerships, Doug provides critical leadership for complex projects, always with vision informed by pragmatism. Supporting Community Design In his 1968 keynote address to the AIA Convention, Whitney Young FAIA challenged the AIA to address issues of social responsibility and diversity within the profession. AIA provided support for new ideas, and AIA Philadelphia immediately created a community-based design center. In an effort to learn more, AIA East Tennessee sent a delegation to Philadelphia, including young Doug McCarty. Founded in 1970 by AIA East Tennessee, the East Tennessee Community Design Center (ETCDC) is now one of the oldest

continuously operating design centers in the United States. Supporting the ETCDC has been the major focus of Doug’s charitable and volunteer efforts. Celebrating its 50th year, the ETCDC serves 16 counties in East Tennessee, with over 1,000 projects completed. Since its founding, the Design Center has had a professional, paid staff which manages the pro-bono volunteer efforts of regional professionals. Doug has served on the board for over 40 years. In good times and lean, Doug has been there to help keep the mission going with enthusiasm and dedication to the original spirit of social responsibility. He also led numerous fundraising efforts in addition to forging partnerships between the ETCDC and numerous community groups. Mentoring and Inspiration As a natural collaborator, Doug has mentored scores of designers, project managers and project architects at McCarty Holsaple McCarty (MHM). Doug has also led the second ownership and leadership transition of MHM, and Doug informally advises other firm principals in the state. He has consistently played an important mentorship role at the University of Tennessee School of Architecture. He and his firm have consistently supported the school, its courses and student organizations and activities. With his leadership team and inclusive process of employee involvement, Doug and MHM have developed a firm culture of inclusion, consensus and fun, developing policies to support professional membership dues, education, testing, maternity and paternity leaves. In recent years MHM has been recognized for its positive workplace environment. AIA Tennessee has awarded MHM the Emerging Professional Friendly Firm Award for the last three years and twice the Knoxville News-Sentinel Business Journal has selected MHM as a “Top Workplace”, the only architecture firm included.

CHALLENGE Originally built in 1928 as a 1996 seat movie palace, the Tennessee Theatre was restored and converted into a regional performing arts center. Decades of neglect had taken its toll on the building while funding was uncertain. ROLE Doug built a team of recognized consultants for the thorough modernization of the theatre, including the painstaking restoration of its historic interiors with the intricate details of its ornate décor. Doug led the MHM team as they carefully managed every aspect of the $25,000,000 project from programming through construction administration. One unique design solution-a cantilever over a street-transformed the shallow space of the movie screen into an enlarged stagehouse. Not only was Doug pivotal in funding efforts, he coordinated the complex application in securing historic tax credits, the first project in the state of Tennessee.

CHALLENGE MHM was the Master Architect for Knoxville’s 1982 World’s Fair, built on a former rail yard between the Downtown and the historic Fort Sanders neighborhood. With energy as its theme, the fair celebrated the legacy of the region of TVA and research at the University of Tennessee. Culminating a six year planning process, the Worlds Fair opened with over 40 pavilions, exhibits, and buildings. Once the fair concluded, MHM was regularly involved in a series of related projects in and near the site, including many landscape improvements, the renovation of the L&N Depot into Knox County’s STEM High School, the construction of Knoxville Museum of Art (designed by Edward Larabee Barnes and later renovated by MHM), and the construction of Knoxville’s Convention Center (page 26). ROLE As the director of design and construction administration at MHM, Doug was heavily involved in the coordination of all construction for the Worlds Fair, with 12 other local architecture firms. In 1987, MHM associated with Edward Larrabee Barnes to design the Knoxville Museum of Art.

IMPACT With over 12,000,000 visitors and national media attention, the dramatic success of the World's Fair transformed Knoxville. The area continues to host important city events. The design celebration of the adjacent historic neighborhood lead to the creation of Knox Heritage, the dynamic advocacy group for historic preservation in the city.

"In all, Knoxville basked in the limelight of a wonderful World's Fair.... however, the fair was but a means to an end, which was the revival of the center city.....many Knoxvillians hoped that the 1982 World's Fair would give the city the 'quantum jump' that many people felt it so desperately needed." –Knoxville, Tennessee: A Mountain City in the New South, 2005 William Bruce Wheeler, Professor Emeritus of History, University of Tennessee

CHALLENGE Located at the edge of the Downtown, the Knoxville Convention Center provides Knoxville and the surrounding region increased opportunities for economic development. MHM, in joint venture with TVS Architects, completed construction in June 2002.

The Convention Center concourses form a continuous perimeter, wrapping the various meeting rooms and spaces and visually connecting these spaces to views of downtown, the University and the park. Location on a slope enabled an underground service core. The facade relates to the city and its historic scale through material selections and details. ROLE Doug collaborated with TVS Architects throughout site selection, design, and construction. He was instrumental in managing expectations within the bureaucracy of the city government and stakeholders.

CHALLENGE As a result of the only design competition conducted by The University of Tennessee, a blue ribbon jury selected MHM's design from a field of 42 entries.

After the bankruptcy of the concrete subcontractor, Doug played a significantly expanded role for contract administration on the site, insuring a successful completion.

The building formed a strong edge for the campus, while creating pedestrian routes in the open interior "street" with natural light. The space creates a strong sense of community, with visual interconnections for the art and architecture students. Common facilities include a museum quality gallery, library, cafe, construction platform, supply store, and auditoriums. Studios for sculpture, printmaking, photography, painting, and architecture overlook the street space. Many studios open to an exterior balcony.

SELECT AWARDS AIA Gulf States Honor Award (1981)

The building was designed to reduce energy consumption with natural ventilation, daylighting, and innovative exterior panes inset into the poured in place concrete frame. ROLE From the beginning of the competition, Doug McCarty was the lead designer. As a recent graduate of the University of Tennessee School of Architecture, he was passionately involved in the design concept for a building that promotes learning, while bringing students and faculty together.

CHALLENGE The University of Tennessee Knoxville's flagship campus has seen tremendous growth through the last fifteen years with implementation of a new master plan and an investment of hundreds of millions in new and renovated facilities throughout campus. With this building program the university sought to knit the campus together through improved infrastructure, landscaping and a style of architecture recalling the campus’ most historic structures. ROLE Doug McCarty has led all MHM’s involvement on a significant number of UT’s most recent impactful and complex projects. IMPACT With a 50-year firm history of designing premier buildings on UT’s campus, Doug responded to this new building program by rigorously researching, interviewing and ultimately partnering with some of the nation’s leading design firms, bringing expertise in labs, stadiums and engineering facilities. Doug’s years of collaborative leadership and successful UT projects, built on a strategy of client service, responsive design, and intense monitoring of project schedule and budget, positioned MHM as a leading firm in the transformation of UTK’s campus.

As President of the AIA East Tennessee chapter, Bruce McCarty FAIA became interested in the formation of the Philadelphia Community Design Center. He visited the center with a delegation from Knoxville, including his son in architecture school, Doug McCarty.

Marleen Kay Davis, FAIA ACSA Distinguished Professor Former Dean mkdavis@utk.edu 865.851.3911

I am honored to nominate Douglas McCarty for elevation to Fellowship in the American Institute of Architects. I have known Doug for my entire professional life, overlapping on design projects, collaborating on community issues, working together in efforts related to the University of Tennessee, and comparing notes often as our respective careers advanced. Knoxville is a better place because of Doug McCarty’s design leadership over fifty years, with one of the oldest community design centers, with the inspirational design work by his architectural firm, and with his collegial generosity and mentorship for many generations of architects in the state. Founded by AIA East Tennessee in 1970, the East Tennessee Community Design Center (ETCDC) is one of the oldest continuously operating design centers in the United States. Since his graduation from architecture school, Doug McCarty has been a key leader for the Design Center. He served for over 40 years on its board, keeping the organization idealistic, relevant, and solvent. As the ETCDC celebrates its 50th anniversary, it has impacted thousands of citizens in 16 regional counties. Over 1,000 community projects range from modest landscape improvements to design visions for non-profits that seek professional services. The impact of this work has been extensive and significant. Doug McCarty joined the Knoxville architecture firm originally founded by his father, Bruce McCarty, FAIA. Doug has been the design principal, regularly restructuring the firm leadership over time. He has been involved in hundreds of projects in the region, which have impacted users and set high standards for design excellence and client satisfaction. While design is a collaborative team effort, two award-winning projects demonstrate the design leadership of Doug McCarty.

The Art + Architecture Building at the University of Tennessee was designed as a learning tool for architecture students, with exposed structural and mechanical systems defining a variety of spaces creating a sense of community. The A+A Building is a primary recruiting tool for new students and faculty. Like so many other faculty, I regularly use the building to demonstrate important design and technology concepts. The building continues to inspire. The ambitious renovation of the 1,400 seat Historic Tennessee Theatre presented numerous challenges related to historical accuracy, updating technology, structuring a cantilevered stage, and fundraising. In his collaborative spirit, Doug assembled teams of experts, insuring the success of the project. Not only did the successful renovation serve as a catalyst for the revitalization of downtown Knoxville, the use of historic tax credits served as a model for other renovations in the state. Finally, Doug McCarty is a colleague in the best sense of the word. He has been an active member of the AIA, and many generations of leadership in the AIA have come from his firm. He has invariably supported the University of Tennessee architecture program, with great generosity and with his firm’s involvement in many courses and student events. Within his firm, he has navigated many leadership transitions, creating a positive firm culture. As a role model who consistently demonstrates a great work ethic, deep integrity, enthusiasm, and genuine respect for others, Doug McCarty has influenced many who have worked in his firm over the last fifty years. Fellowship in the AIA recognizes exceptional work and contributions to architecture and society by colleagues. Doug McCarty merits this recognition, with his life-long dedication to making an impact with his enthusiastic work in East Tennessee. Sincerely,

Marleen Kay Davis, FAIA ACSA Distinguished Professor


SECTION 1 | SUMMARY STATEMENT DOUGLAS H. McCARTY, AIA A warm, generous and enthusiastic servant leader, Doug McCarty has made a lasting impact in his community through his firm, his commitment to the East Tennessee Community Design Center, and mentorship. Leading a Legacy Firm Founded in postwar Knoxville, McCarty Holsaple McCarty (MHM) quickly became a leading architectural firm for major civic, institutional, and innovative residential projects, with national design recognition. While the firm principals have changed over time, the firm’s primary identity derives from one of its founders, Bruce McCarty FAIA, and his son Doug McCarty, who joined the firm after graduation from architecture school in 1973. At age 34, Doug assumed the leadership of the fifteen-year-old firm, which had just lost a third of its staff to a firm split, while the local economy was undergoing a fiscal shock with the collapse of the region’s two largest banks. Today, McCarty Holsaple McCarty Architects, Inc. (MHM) is responsible for many iconic civic structures, such as the Knoxville Convention Center, the Tennessee Theatre restoration, the Amphitheatre at the World’s Fair site, the McGhee Tyson Airport Terminal, and numerous projects at the University of Tennessee, including the award-winning Art + Architecture Building. Under Doug’s leadership, MHM has successfully collaborated with national firms, bringing the best design to East Tennessee. In important public/private partnerships, Doug provides critical leadership for complex projects, always with vision informed by pragmatism. Supporting Community Design In his 1968 keynote address to the AIA Convention, Whitney Young FAIA challenged the AIA to address issues of social responsibility and diversity within the profession. AIA provided support for new ideas, and AIA Philadelphia immediately created a community-based design center. In an effort to learn more, AIA East Tennessee sent a delegation to Philadelphia, including young Doug McCarty. Founded in 1970 by AIA East Tennessee, the East Tennessee Community Design Center (ETCDC) is now one of the oldest

continuously operating design centers in the United States. Supporting the ETCDC has been the major focus of Doug’s charitable and volunteer efforts. Celebrating its 50th year, the ETCDC serves 16 counties in East Tennessee, with over 1,000 projects completed. Since its founding, the Design Center has had a professional, paid staff which manages the pro-bono volunteer efforts of regional professionals. Doug has served on the board for over 40 years. In good times and lean, Doug has been there to help keep the mission going with enthusiasm and dedication to the original spirit of social responsibility. He also led numerous fundraising efforts in addition to forging partnerships between the ETCDC and numerous community groups. Mentoring and Inspiration As a natural collaborator, Doug has mentored scores of designers, project managers and project architects at McCarty Holsaple McCarty (MHM). Doug has also led the second ownership and leadership transition of MHM, and Doug informally advises other firm principals in the state. He has consistently played an important mentorship role at the University of Tennessee School of Architecture. He and his firm have consistently supported the school, its courses and student organizations and activities. With his leadership team and inclusive process of employee involvement, Doug and MHM have developed a firm culture of inclusion, consensus and fun, developing policies to support professional membership dues, education, testing, maternity and paternity leaves. In recent years MHM has been recognized for its positive workplace environment. AIA Tennessee has awarded MHM the Emerging Professional Friendly Firm Award for the last three years and twice the Knoxville News-Sentinel Business Journal has selected MHM as a “Top Workplace”, the only architecture firm included.

CHALLENGE Originally built in 1928 as a 1996 seat movie palace, the Tennessee Theatre was restored and converted into a regional performing arts center. Decades of neglect had taken its toll on the building while funding was uncertain. ROLE Doug built a team of recognized consultants for the thorough modernization of the theatre, including the painstaking restoration of its historic interiors with the intricate details of its ornate décor. Doug led the MHM team as they carefully managed every aspect of the $25,000,000 project from programming through construction administration. One unique design solution-a cantilever over a street-transformed the shallow space of the movie screen into an enlarged stagehouse. Not only was Doug pivotal in funding efforts, he coordinated the complex application in securing historic tax credits, the first project in the state of Tennessee. IMPACT This successful renovation energized downtown Knoxville, with thousands attending a wide array of programming each month. The Tennessee Theatre is

CHALLENGE MHM was the Master Architect for Knoxville’s 1982 World’s Fair, built on a former rail yard between the Downtown and the historic Fort Sanders neighborhood. With energy as its theme, the fair celebrated the legacy of the region of TVA and research at the University of Tennessee. Culminating a six year planning process, the Worlds Fair opened with over 40 pavilions, exhibits, and buildings. Once the fair concluded, MHM was regularly involved in a series of related projects in and near the site, including many landscape improvements, the renovation of the L&N Depot into Knox County’s STEM High School, the construction of Knoxville Museum of Art (designed by Edward Larabee Barnes and later renovated by MHM), and the construction of Knoxville’s Convention Center (page 26). ROLE As the director of design and construction administration at MHM, Doug was heavily involved in the coordination of all construction for the Worlds Fair, with 12 other local architecture firms. In 1987, MHM associated with Edward Larrabee Barnes to design the Knoxville Museum of Art.

DOUG MCCARTY, AIA | FAIA APPLICATION 2021

IMPACT With over 12,000,000 visitors and national media attention, the dramatic success of the World's Fair transformed Knoxville. The area continues to host important city events. The design celebration of the adjacent historic neighborhood lead to the creation of Knox Heritage, the dynamic advocacy group for historic preservation in the city.

"In all, Knoxville basked in the limelight of a wonderful World's Fair.... however, the fair was but a means to an end, which was the revival of the center city.....many Knoxvillians hoped that the 1982 World's Fair would give the city the 'quantum jump' that many people felt it so desperately needed." –Knoxville, Tennessee: A Mountain City in the New South, 2005 William Bruce Wheeler, Professor Emeritus of History, University of Tennessee

CHALLENGE Located at the edge of the Downtown, the Knoxville Convention Center provides Knoxville and the surrounding region increased opportunities for economic development. MHM, in joint venture with TVS Architects, completed construction in June 2002. The Convention Center site is adjacent to the park created from the 1982 World’s Fair Site, on the western edge of the city’s urban core. The Convention Center concourses form a continuous perimeter, wrapping the various meeting rooms and spaces and visually connecting these spaces to views of downtown, the University and the park. Location on a slope enabled an underground service core. The facade relates to the city and its historic scale through material selections and details. ROLE Doug collaborated with TVS Architects throughout site selection, design, and construction. He was instrumental in managing expectations within the bureaucracy of the city government and stakeholders. IMPACT After construction many new developments have joined the Convention Center: hotels, nearby condominiums, and a STEM school

CHALLENGE As a result of the only design competition conducted by The University of Tennessee, a blue ribbon jury selected MHM's design from a field of 42 entries.

After the bankruptcy of the concrete subcontractor, Doug played a significantly expanded role for contract administration on the site, insuring a successful completion.

The building formed a strong edge for the campus, while creating pedestrian routes in the open interior "street" with natural light. The space creates a strong sense of community, with visual interconnections for the art and architecture students. Common facilities include a museum quality gallery, library, cafe, construction platform, supply store, and auditoriums. Studios for sculpture, printmaking, photography, painting, and architecture overlook the street space. Many studios open to an exterior balcony.

SELECT AWARDS AIA Gulf States Honor Award (1981)

The building was designed to reduce energy consumption with natural ventilation, daylighting, and innovative exterior panes inset into the poured in place concrete frame. ROLE From the beginning of the competition, Doug McCarty was the lead designer. As a recent graduate of the University of Tennessee School of Architecture, he was passionately involved in the design concept for a building that promotes learning, while bringing students and faculty together.

CHALLENGE The University of Tennessee Knoxville's flagship campus has seen tremendous growth through the last fifteen years with implementation of a new master plan and an investment of hundreds of millions in new and renovated facilities throughout campus. With this building program the university sought to knit the campus together through improved infrastructure, landscaping and a style of architecture recalling the campus’ most historic structures. ROLE Doug McCarty has led all MHM’s involvement on a significant number of UT’s most recent impactful and complex projects. IMPACT With a 50-year firm history of designing premier buildings on UT’s campus, Doug responded to this new building program by rigorously researching, interviewing and ultimately partnering with some of the nation’s leading design firms, bringing expertise in labs, stadiums and engineering facilities. Doug’s years of collaborative leadership and successful UT projects, built on a strategy of client service, responsive design, and intense monitoring of project schedule and budget, positioned MHM as a leading firm in the transformation of UTK’s campus.

DOUG MCCARTY, AIA | FAIA APPLICATION 2021

As illustrated on the following page, the highlighted campus projects represent a significant cohesive thread in the fabric of campus uniting state-of-theart educational facilities through a language of modern and historically respectful architecture.

“Doug is extremely creative, highly committed to the University of Tennessee, Knoxville and our community, and exhibits impeccable professionalism, integrity, and honesty. He has revived UT's campus to be more modern and iconic for current and future volunteers." –Jimmy Cheek, Chancellor Emeritus, University of Tennessee

IMPACT: PEOPLE AND EVENTS Doug has recruited a wide range of business, education, construction, and design professionals to serve as volunteers or on the board of ETCDC, creating an extensive resource of expertise and support.

ROLE Doug became President and Director of Design at MHM in 1984. IMPACT Thirty-six years later, MHM has 45 employees and the 2019 gross revenue was almost $10 million, a growth that far outpaces inflation. MHM is one of the largest and most respected firms in East Tennessee and has twice been awarded in recent years the accolade of “Best Workplace” by the Knoxville Business Journal. This award is based on confidential employee surveys conducted by a third-party service. For both years the firm was so named, it was the only design firm listed.

The firm has had very healthy profit distributions for the last several years and affords the highest level of technology for its staff. A 2017 thorough renovation of its office space, paid for in cash, was done with designers at every level in the firm participating. The end results have engendered a sense of pride among the staff and has won design awards. One long term strategy that has brought nationally recognized design firms to East Tennessee and helped build MHM’s market share of work was Doug’s creation of a culture of partnering with both national and local firms to bring specific design expertise to the table. It also allowed MHM to take on very large projects while keeping the firm a sustainable size. National firms that have worked with MHM in Knoxville include TVSDesign, HNTB, the Smith Group, Lord Aeck Sargent, SLAM, and Westlake Reed Leskosky. MHM has always tried to maintain professional and cordial relationships with local firms and has associated with them on many projects throughout the region.

In building and maintaining a successful practice, Doug has been an example of servant community leadership and has supported that at all levels of the firm. He has also been instrumental in attracting and retaining the most talented individuals to the firm with an eye toward future firm leadership transition. Several years ago, recognizing he and other leaders would be nearing retirement age about the same time he has concentrated on leadership transition as much as ownership transition. ROLE Doug has been instrumental in leading support for firm employees by nominating them to community and professional board

positions, supporting opportunities through Leadership Knoxville, Intro Knoxville, Knoxville's 40 under 40, UT Chancellor Associates and supporting leadership efforts through generous financial support of employee involvement in a myriad of community events and initiatives. For the firm transition, Doug turned to industry transition experts. He and his senior operations officer also realized that the future owners may not yet be with the firm. Doug, as president and CEO, led the charge for both creating an inclusive workplace based on consensus, and in transitioning leadership to a diverse and talented group of young leaders.

DOUG MCCARTY, AIA | FAIA APPLICATION 2021


IMPACT MHM has not only become a creative and financial success, its leadership has also managed to create a firm that encourages community involvement by all within the company and active mentoring of young professionals. As of 2020 the employees of McCarty Holsaple McCarty are involved in leadership roles and active volunteerism in over 40 community organizations throughout Knoxville and the East Tennessee region. The firm annually supports employees in events such as Parking Day, Knoxville by Design, community charrettes and competitions, and a host of community special events. MHM has been recognized in 2018, 2019 and 2020 as an “AIA Tennessee EP Friendly Firm” by the Tennessee American Institute of Architects. Factors leading to this recognition include bonuses for successfully passing the ARE or interior design exams, the providing of time off for testing, the provision of study materials, payment of AIA or other professional organization dues for all staff, encouraging leadership and financial support for civic organizations that staff members are involved with, periodic EP-led presentations and lunch events, periodic company social events and

the institution of a generous maternity and paternity leave benefit that is most needed by Emerging Professionals. For the leadership transition, local industry “stars” have been recruited. A well-rounded and diverse team has been assembled and many hours of mentoring, meetings, strategic planning and team building sessions have resulted in a leadership and ownership transition plan. A group of four new principals and a new director of design have re-energized the staff and are using the expertise of Doug as they navigate the fifty-five-year-old firm into the third decade of the 21st century.

"While in college and early in my career, I had the fortune of working at McCarty Holsaple McCarty. I truly felt like I had a family there. The principals - Doug, David, and Jeffshowed me true leadership skills." – Sherry Ault, CEO, Founder S2A Integration

ROLE Doug became President and Director of Design at MHM in 1984. IMPACT Thirty-six years later, MHM has 45 employees and the 2019 gross revenue was almost $10 million, a growth that far outpaces inflation. MHM is one of the largest and most respected firms in East Tennessee and has twice been awarded in recent years the accolade of “Best Workplace” by the Knoxville Business Journal. This award is based on confidential employee surveys conducted by a third-party service. For both years the firm was so named, it was the only design firm listed.

The firm has had very healthy profit distributions for the last several years and affords the highest level of technology for its staff. A 2017 thorough renovation of its office space, paid for in cash, was done with designers at every level in the firm participating. The end results have engendered a sense of pride among the staff and has won design awards. One long term strategy that has brought nationally recognized design firms to East Tennessee and helped build MHM’s market share of work was Doug’s creation of a culture of partnering with both national and local firms to bring specific design expertise to the table. It also allowed MHM to take on very large projects while keeping the firm a sustainable size. National firms that have worked with MHM in Knoxville include TVSDesign, HNTB, the Smith Group, Lord Aeck Sargent, SLAM, and Westlake Reed Leskosky. MHM has always tried to maintain professional and cordial relationships with local firms and has associated with them on many projects throughout the region.

In building and maintaining a successful practice, Doug has been an example of servant community leadership and has supported that at all levels of the firm. He has also been instrumental in attracting and retaining the most talented individuals to the firm with an eye toward future firm leadership transition. Several years ago, recognizing he and other leaders would be nearing retirement age about the same time he has concentrated on leadership transition as much as ownership transition. ROLE Doug has been instrumental in leading support for firm employees by nominating them to community and professional board

positions, supporting opportunities through Leadership Knoxville, Intro Knoxville, Knoxville's 40 under 40, UT Chancellor Associates and supporting leadership efforts through generous financial support of employee involvement in a myriad of community events and initiatives. For the firm transition, Doug turned to industry transition experts. He and his senior operations officer also realized that the future owners may not yet be with the firm. Doug, as president and CEO, led the charge for both creating an inclusive workplace based on consensus, and in transitioning leadership to a diverse and talented group of young leaders.

MHM has been recognized in 2018, 2019 and 2020 as an “AIA Tennessee EP Friendly Firm” by the Tennessee American Institute of Architects. Factors leading to this recognition include bonuses for successfully passing the ARE or interior design exams, the providing of time off for testing, the provision of study materials, payment of AIA or other professional organization dues for all staff, encouraging leadership and financial support for civic organizations that staff members are involved with, periodic EP-led presentations and lunch events, periodic company social events and

the institution of a generous maternity and paternity leave benefit that is most needed by Emerging Professionals. For the leadership transition, local industry “stars” have been recruited. A well-rounded and diverse team has been assembled and many hours of mentoring, meetings, strategic planning and team building sessions have resulted in a leadership and ownership transition plan. A group of four new principals and a new director of design have re-energized the staff and are using the expertise of Doug as they navigate the fifty-five-year-old firm into the third decade of the 21st century.

"While in college and early in my career, I had the fortune of working at McCarty Holsaple McCarty. I truly felt like I had a family there. The principals - Doug, David, and Jeffshowed me true leadership skills." – Sherry Ault, CEO, Founder S2A Integration
