Is it fair to expect more of architecture in some places rather than others? Certainly the political, social, and economic ingredients of any location can lead to great buildings. While in Northeast Oklahoma, participants in the 2019 TxA Design Conference: UNEXPECTED will explore the notion that great architecture can happen anywhere. The program will open with a walking tour of downtown Tulsa, which boasts one of the nation’s most extensive collections of Art Deco architecture, and will include a day trip to Bartlesville. In addition to tours of buildings by Bruce Goff, Frank Lloyd Wright, and others, the conference will feature discussions with contemporary architects working in unexpected environments. 

Join us as we explore the UNEXPECTED in Oklahoma.
