We offer function-first architecture to a variety of industries.
McCarty Architects provides a full range of architectural, planning and interior design services for a wide range of clients.

Our approach is tailored to our clients and their needs.
Our approach is centered around the needs of our clients. Our team of expert designers and technicians begin each project by listening to our clients and then considering what functions and features would best enhance the project. When necessary, we partner with national and international specialists. Throughout thousands of projects—from hospitals and conference centers to car dealerships and student housing—we have proven our ability to create high-performing designs in response to diverse client demands.

As we’ve grown, we’ve stayed committed to our values.
McCarty Architects was founded in 1983 in Tupelo, Miss., by Buddy McCarty, who was soon joined by his brother, Richard. In its early years, the firm built its reputation as a premier architectural design team in the healthcare and senior living industry and has since expanded into a broad range of markets. Today, McCarty Architects is led by Kurt Shettles and Justin Harrington.
As our firm has grown, the scope of our work has expanded but our core mission has remained the same: designing well-functioning spaces where people can live, work, learn and heal.
