Geophysical Resource Center Office Building

With a simple, clean design inspired by the surrounding natural landscape, the new four-story, Class A office building and a 140-space parking garage for the Society of Exploration Geophysicists (SEG) is located on the 11-acre park-like Geophysical Resource Campus in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The new building features a black glass curtain wall exterior that wraps around the entire structure. This modern interpretation of the older six-story building located on the same site provides a dynamic natural canvas that reflects the ever-changing sky and landscape. Natural elements of wood, glass, exposed steel, stone and geological features are incorporated throughout the entire building and site.
An extremely efficient building core design allows a trio of 20,000-square-foot upper floor plates to provide column-free leasable space between the building core and exterior.
Visible from all sides, the new structures nestles into the existing rolling landscape at 91st and Yale in South Tulsa. Site enhancements feature new landscaping across the entire campus and a new pedestrian bridge that spans a multi-level waterfall, connecting the two-level pond. A small gathering space overlooks the water features, complete with lighting, chairs and tables that the building tenants and guests can use to take a break, socialize and enjoy the beauty of the surrounding campus.
