In 1962, J. Leland Gourley, a publisher in Oklahoma, envisioned creating a bank that would stand out from the rest. Robert Roloff, a brilliant architect, was his perfect partner. Together, they created the Oklahoma State Capitol Bank, a fantastical creation that captured the imagination of all who saw it. The design included 17 flying saucers and a "floating air lobby." The bank is still serving its community and remains one of the architectural gems of today.

Positioned gracefully above a serene man-made lake, the modern tropical pavilion emerges as a defining landmark, encapsulating the very essence of place. Its unique tall roof form, inspired by traditional Filipino architecture, not only serves functional purposes but also becomes a visual anchor, drawing the eye and evoking a sense of belonging. This architectural feature, while contemporary in its execution, resonates deeply with the cultural tapestry of the region. In the vast landscape of eco-tourism, where establishing a distinct brand identity is paramount, this pavilion stands as a beacon.
