AIA MISSISSIPPI FIRST QUARTER 2013
PRESIDENT’S CORNER
CONSIDERING GRASSROOTS, REPOSITIONING & PRACTICE
BY: ANNE MARIE DECKER, AIA PRESIDENT
Scott Eddy, Joe Blake and I just returned from the AIA Grassroots
Leadership Conference in Washington, D.C.
I found the
experience to be complex.
It was inspiring to visit our Congressmen’s offices and tour
the Capitol. It was challenging, scary and exciting to hear
predictions about the profession. Examples from the presentation
by Frank A. Stasiowski, FAIA at PSMJ include, “Licensure may
become irrelevant. We will sell our value, not our time. Global
corporate trends will change our local market conditions.” It was
impressive to hear some of the initial findings and recommendations from consultants, LaPlaca and Cohen,
who are leading “Repositioning” (AIA’s latest attempt to lead with relevance). It was discouraging to see
the national leadership hesitate. I hope they can seize this opportunity with the quick, critical and visionary actions
required. I was mostly encouraged to see that AIA Mississippi’s plan to expand AIA to include allied design
professionals in an effort to strengthen our design professions is a direction advocated by the Repositioning effort.
I was reminded of two things. I was reminded why I became an architect, to build a better world. I was
also reminded how easy it is for the hope of that desire to be lost in the scale and complexity of our every day
work and how easy it is take our impact for granted. First because we often do not live the life of our buildings
after occupancy and second because very few every day architecture success stories are told. AIA Mississippi
is seeking ways to tell those stories to more people. The Design Awards will be held at Mississippi
Celebrates Architecture in Jackson and will be open to the public, clients, building users, design team
members and contractors. Communications features such as "Trade Secrets" interviews, introductions
to our Individual Allied Professional Partners, Year-in-Review Publication, design competitions
and other special features seek to highlight the every day successes and value of our work.
As attention was given at Grassroots to emerging professionals, young architects, intern architects, and other subset
descriptions, I was reminded of the difficult transition from architectural education to practice. I
consider myself fortunate to have realized early in my career that the term “practice” is hopeful and educational. Our
failure may be that we see these aspects of an architect’s world so differently. Practicing is the best possible way
to learn, and neither endeavor should be an end in itself. Perhaps one of our most important efforts is to promote
the dialogue about what we do with expanded communications (new website under construction, facebook
and twitter accounts active with member content), founding of YAF group and an enlivened and involved group of
Associates.
I worry that AIA may have become a symbol of all of the difficulties of “practice”. I sincerely hope it has
not. Overcoming these difficulties is not the loss of our hopes, but the path to realizing them; to infusing
them with the breadth and depth we did not have when we formed them. A colleague at the conference

2012 AIA MISSISSIPPI ANNUAL CHRISTMAS PARTY
AIA Mississippi’s 2013 Annual Chirstmas Party was exceptional this
year, held at the home of Incoming President Anne Marie Decker and
partner Roy Decker. A Presidential Citation was presented to Ann
Somers by 2012 Outgoing President Jared Pierce. It was a great
evening for everyone in attendance. Check out these and many more
photographs from the event on our Facebook page.
AIA MISSISSIPPI HOSTS “ROAD TO FELLOWSHIP” WORKSHOP
AIA Gulf States Region held a workshop on
November 12, 2012 for all those interested in
“de-mystifying” the Fellowship process. The
workshop offered an informative view into the
process from two excellent presenters/mentors.
Lee Askew, FAIA (Memphis) recently served
as a member of the Fellows Jury, while Allen
Eskew, FAIA (New Orleans) was instrumental in
developing the Fellows Workshops.
The program received a great turnout with
attendees from across the Gulf State Region.
Positive reviews were abundant, revealing this
workshop to be apt and timely.
The workshop was held at the Old Capitol Inn,
one of AIA Mississippi’s valued MAPP Partners.

BELINDA STEWART
ELEVATED TO
COLLEGE OF FELLOWS
DID YOU KNOW?
You may know the AIA has
an Emeritus Membership
status that waives annual
membership dues for
members who retire with
15 consecutive years of
AIA membership. But, did
you know that at last year’s
convention, the AIA voted to
change the age requirement
for Emeritus Membership
from 65 years of age to 70?
A Letter of Recognition from AIA MS President
Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the AIA Mississippi Board of
Directors, I extend our congratulations
to Belinda Stewart. Belinda Stewart has been
elevated to Fellowship in the American
Institute of Architects! This is a high honor and
a distinction that is well-deserved. The College of Fellows recognizes Architects
whose careers are making real and lasting
impact on the profession and our culture. Belinda has been serving her community and
the State of Mississippi as an exceptional architect in the broadest sense of the
term for many years. She is a trailblazer, a successful architect in small town,
Mississippi, the first female President of AIA Mississippi and now the first female
Fellow of the Institute from Mississippi.
From her practice to her public service, Belinda Stewart’s career is an
example of the positive impact an architect can have on his or her community.
Belinda has given decades of sustained effort and dedication to preserving and
improving the built environment. She has utilized architectural principles and design
thinking to make each building, institution, organization or community she encounters
better than she found it.
Each renovation, new building and historic restoration has kindled or revived a
community’s pride and sense of place. Her contribution to the greater good
is evidenced in her work and in numerous local, state and regional design awards,
leadership recognitions and publications. Her genuine and unwavering commitment
to public service is proven not only in her body of architectural work, but also in her
individual leadership, from business leader to four-term Mayor of her beloved
home, the Village of Walthall, Mississippi.
DID YOU KNOW?
AIA has its own political
action committee that was
founded in 1980. ArchiPAC
was formed to help serve as
a voice for the architecture
profession in Washington.
If you are not familiar with Belinda’s career, please review the attached Summary of
Achievements, a part of her submission to the College of Fellows. It will give you a
taste of the work Belinda has completed so far and make you proud to be an architect
in Mississippi.
Sincerely,
See more information
on how to get involved
or donate.

2012 PEOPLE’S CHOICE AWARD WINNER
The AIA now supports
the International Green
Construction Code (IgCC).
The IgCC is a new model
code that serves as a tool
in designing energy efficient
buildings and structures.
This new model code also
helps to provide sustainable
practices to be applied
to everyday construction.

Overview
The 2012 IgCC was
published by the ICC in
late March 2012. The
American Institute of
Architects supports the
development and adoption
of the International Green
Construction Code (IgCC),
which provides model code
language for states and
municipalities to establish
baseline sustainable design
requirements for new and
existing buildings, including
but not limited to, energy
and water use efficiency;
materials and resource
use; indoor environmental
quality; building impacts
on the environment; site
design; and sustainable

AIA MISSISSIPPI AT GRASSROOTS 2013!
PRESIDENT’S CORNER CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3
said
to me that he “bled AIA”. I thought to myself, “I do not bleed AIA, I bleed Architect”. That is why the AIA
Manifesto, the Repositioning consultant’s immediate call to action, comforted me. I volunteer in and am a
member of AIA for one simple reason. It IS the professional association of "America’s Architects". We
are Mississippi’s Architects! In a state of such rich cultural heritage, our challenge, every day, is to
help make authentic, culturally relevant, functional and impactful buildings for our communities.
I do not know how “Repositioning” will work out at the national level, but I do know that it does not really matter. We,
each one of us, are the AIA. AIA Mississippi’s foundations are sound (rebuilt by our membership and its leaders
over the past few years). We have prioritized, we have diversified, and we are collaborative,
inviting in Allied Individual Professional Partners and strengthening our relationships with Company Allied Partners.
What we are doing now is a model for AIA in general. If we want to realize a better world, we must make a more
relevant profession, together. You can make a difference at AIA Mississippi. Step onto a committee, contribute your
individual perspective to the goals and help make things happen.
Thank you to Senator Roger Wicker, whose staff spoke with us so intelligently about the importance of
resiliency, Congressman Gregg Harper, who greeted us warmly and provided us (via Taylor Luczak)
a most informative tour of the U.S. Capitol, Congressman Steven Pallazo, whose staff was genuinely
interested in the Safety Assessment Program of AIA/MS as potential assistance to the residents of the MS Gulf
Coast and Congressman Bennie G. Thompson, who sat with us personally and offered helpful
suggestions to build our Disaster Assistance efforts.

MAPP PLATINUM APPLIED SOFTWARE
ARTICLE AND INTERVIEW BY SHANNON F. GATHINGS
One of the most exciting events of the annual
AIA Mississippi Convention is undoubtedly
the Product Expo. Wandering the ballroom,
speaking with AIA MAPP partners who
diligently attend and give their support is
a great opportunity to show how much their
efforts are appreciated. One particular booth
hums with activity as convention attendees
huddle around a computer as the latest and
greatest in software is demonstrated for all who "...the longest association with
stop by. Maybe you just stopped by for the AIA Autodesk in the world."
Buck but Applied Software is offering more
than a chance to win a prize at the Annual
Auction. Applied Software is committed to
making their booth visually interactive and
educational. Applied Software is committed to
Mississippi Architects.
A Partner with AIA Mississippi for 3 years,
Applied Software offers AIA Mississippi
members insight into the new and upcoming
technological trends and advancements. With
offices located throughout the Southeast,
Applied Software is one of the largest Autodesk
resellers in the region and the reseller with the longest association with Autodesk
in the world. Applied Software was founded in 1982 and is the premier, full-service
professional services firm serving the AEC and manufacturing industries, and leading
Building Information Modeling (BIM) services provider.

Fiona Pratt, AIA
Although Applied Software is headquartered in Atlanta,
Georgia, the familiar face you are likely to see around
Mississippi is AIA MS Chapter Representative Fiona Pratt,
AIA. Fiona travels from Alabama to Jackson at least once
a month for various consulting opportunities. Fiona is a
registered Architect with 25 years of experience in practice,
with a depth of experience in building design, construction
administration, project management and BIM adoption. She
joined Applied Software in 2010 as a Strategic Account
Manager in the AEC industry. Her skills have benefited clients
in the integration of enhanced technology solutions in real
business and project situations.
8
AIA MISSISSIPPI FIRST QUARTER 2013
I had the pleasure of interviewing Fiona for this article. What is immediately apparent
is that she genuinely enjoys her work, a common trait among the Applied Software
team. In March this year, Applied Software held a Biloxi CEU Lunch about Technology
for Multi-Tasking Design Development Workflows. Heading this seminar was one of
Applied Software’s experts, Charisse Smith. Charisse is one of Applied Software’s
Strategic Account Managers and provides services for AIA MS members along the Gulf
Coast. With 20 plus years in the Autodesk Reseller Channel and complete Autodesk
certifications for both the AEC and MGF industries, Charisse is another one of the
extremely helpful and particularly qualified technicians vital to Applied Software’s services
for Mississippi Architects
One of the ways that Applied Software has chosen to get involved in Mississippi is
through the Mississippi State University College of Architecture. For the past 3 years,
Applied Software has been working with the 3rd year architecture students by working together
with faculty and designing an intensive two-day Revit training workshop. The workshop is integrated into the
course curriculum, allowing them to further their studio design while learning to operate BIM programs at the
design development level. For instance, Fiona noted, “there is a little known tool in Revit, very similar to Google
Sketchup, that allows the designer to sketch three-dimensionally
before getting into too much detail". Of course this can be an
important tool for someone who is “learning the ropes”, and a great
skill for young designers to learn as they develop design proficiency.
Charisse Smith
Trade Secrets
When asked what Trade Secret she could share with AIA
Mississippi, Fiona spoke about the value of the Applied Software
Team. Applied Software members have a minimum of 15 years’
experience in diverse backgrounds. These professionals become
experienced project managers, BIM managers, specialists
in construction, mechanical, plumbing and more design and
construction based areas. “This knowledge allows the team to excel
in offering Architects as well as Owners a leading advantage in
delivery as well as their ability to win projects”.
Applied Software prides themselves on being at the leading edge
of technology and hopes that Mississippi Architects continue to
embrace the power of up-and-coming technological advances.
When asked, "How does Mississippi compare to other
states in the region that Applied Software services? Are
Mississippi firms really open to the newest technologies?,” Fiona
admits, “there is sometimes a bit of hesitancy to move into new
technology.” This is a natural reaction to change, but moving forward
is vital to progress. Applied Software will continue to be a part of
Mississippi moving forward. Applied Software’s approach is to give
clients the right technology they need according to their firm, to “find
the right fit”, to leverage the skills a firm’s staff already has and

In some states the titling
for young professionals
is limited to “applicant” or
simply “intern”. Find where
we land among other
states.
AIA MS would like to announce the formation of a
new component group.
Young Architects Forum (YAF) is organized to address issues
of particular importance to recently licensed architects
(within 10 years or fewer after licensure) and young
designers/interns. YAF is open to all recently graduated
architecture students, designers, interns, young architects,
& those who wish to mentor.
Throughout its history, the YAF has had three goals:
1. To encourage professional growth and leadership development among recently licensed architects through interaction and collaboration within the AIA and allied groups.
2. To build a national network and serve as a collective
voice for young architects by working to ensure that issues
of particular relevance to young architects are appropriately addressed by the Institute.
