John Sanders
October 10, 2024 at the Benson Theatre in Omaha, NE.
John Sanders is a founding partner of Sanders Pace Architecture, created in 2002 primarily for a focus on design opportunities within Knoxville’s urban core and its immediate surrounding neighborhoods. His passion for design can be seen on the challenging projects that he and his firm have been involved within those areas. John’s work is meaningful, creative, and inspirational. His influence is evident in the thoughtful rehabilitation of forgotten, neglected buildings in fringe neighborhoods, elevation of overlooked project typologies, and energetic service through teaching and civic engagement.
John was elevated to the AIA College of Fellows in 2018 in recognition of his contributions to the profession and was awarded the AIA East Tennessee Gold Medal in 2024 along with founding partner, Brandon F. Pace. The Gold Medal is the AIA East Tennessee chapter’s highest honor that can be bestowed upon one of its members.
