Design Inspiration

The building’s architecture reflects Oklahoma’s natural landscape:

• Level 1: Inspired by the warmth of the earth
• Level 2: Represents the horizon line
• Level 3: Echoes the vibrant Oklahoma sky
  Strategic use of color and materials throughout the interior reinforces this theme.

Signature Artwork

The atriums feature “Virtual Sky” by artist Susan Narduli — a stunning installation of slender titanium tubes suspended by aircraft cables. These gleaming forms capture natural light and evoke Oklahoma’s expansive skies and rich aviation heritage.
