Oklahoma Wesleyan University - Janice & Charles Drake Library

Bartlesville, OK | Start and End Date: 2007-2009

Merging multiple styles to unify various campus buildings into one singular vision. 

We incorporated multiple architectural styles into the different locations, including neoclassical with rounded arches, an extended tower, and a pergola frame at the back of the building. We installed four pillars at the entrance, representing the school’s core beliefs: Christ, scripture, truth and wisdom. We also designed an open, light-filled space with comfortable seating areas and study spaces around the mezzanine levels.

Contractor: McAnaw Construction
