DLR Group Appoints New Healthcare Client Leader in the Southeast

(Charlotte, N.C., August 22, 2024) – Global Healthcare Leader Mark Tiscornia, AIA, ACHA, announces Principal Damian Huneycutt, AIA, ACHA, as Healthcare Client Leader in the Southeast.

Awarded Healthcare Design’s 2023 “Team MVP” for his innovative work in healthcare design, Huneycutt brings with him a wealth of experience and a fresh perspective. Integral to key clients such as Octapharma Plasma and Novant Health, Huneycutt’s new, expansive role oversees DLR Group’s relationship with healthcare clients in the Southeast. Always with a hard hat and set of boots in his truck, Huneycutt delivers designs that help physicians and nurses administer care, provide a better healing environment, and allow patients and their family members to feel comfortable.

“His forward-thinking approach and commitment to design excellence will undoubtedly propel our healthcare design solutions to new heights, driving growth in the Southeast,” said Tiscornia.

Concluding a remarkable 40-year career of influencing healthcare architecture in the Southeast, Beyer’s service to the healthcare industry has made an indelible mark. Beyer has been with DLR Group since 2021, following the acquisition of Wright McGraw Beyer Architects (WMBA), a firm Beyer co-founded in 1996. Under his leadership, WMBA became one of the leading healthcare planning and design firms in the Carolinas, having completed over $1.4 billion in healthcare projects. Over four decades, Beyer’s leadership extended to thousands of projects and long-term partnerships with major healthcare systems and hospitals throughout the Southeast, including UNC Health Blue Ridge and Atrium Health.

“The most important impact of our firm and my professional journey was not the size or number of projects but the people we served,” said Beyer. “Helping to improve the health of people in our communities at both the best and most challenging times in patients’ lives has been the most rewarding part of my career.”
