Moody and Associates was founded in 1982. The office’s first location was in Columbus, Moody’s hometown. Years later, Howard Nolan, an engineer, teamed up with Curt Moody to form Moody Nolan. That firm eventually grew into a massive enterprise with more than 350 employees and 12 different offices.

In 2021, it was the recipient of The American Institute of Architects (AIA) Architecture Firm Award. The firm provides services to residences, commercial buildings, retail, sports, hospitals, and cultural institutions.

The list of Moody Nolan’s important projects and accolades is long, including 43 design citations from the National Organization of Minority Architects (NOMA). In speeches and interviews, Moody never shied away from discussing the racism he endured.

In 2020, Curt Moody’s son, Jonathan Moody, became the CEO.
