From modest beginnings in an old house in Columbus, Ohio, architects Curtis Moody and Howard E. Nolan have built Moody Nolan into one of the premier public and institutional architecture design firms in the country. Through a combination of entrepreneurial persistence and outsized talent, the award-winning partnership has completed a highly diverse range of projects—from schools and libraries to fire stations and prisons—in more than forty states. With nearly two hundred employees working in regional offices across the country, Moody Nolan has developed a consistent design ethos centered on humane values and the notion of an architecture that responds naturally to site and programmatic requirements. Their signature brand of responsive architecture utilizes transparency, layering, and massing to leave a lasting impression on their building's visitors and inhabitants. Featuring lush photography that beautifully illustrates their design philosophy, Moody Nolan Design presents the innovative firm's complete oeuvre of built projects.
