statement of interest
With our deep local roots and fresh perspectives, we feel drawn to the work of creating a visual language for the Philbrook that reflects the aspirations of the people it belongs to.
We’re a Tulsa-based creative team that believes in the power of place, story, and design to bring shape to our ideas. We see this as an opportunity to translate the joy visitors feel wandering the gardens, the awe of stepping into the historic entrance, and the sense of belonging the staff creates into every brand touchpoint.
We care deeply about what Philbrook means to this city and beyond. We've personally felt the sense of belonging and cultural identity with the Philbrook as a place that is welcoming, inclusive, and creative. We hope to work with you on creating a brand where every touchpoint taps directly into the spirit of this special place and furthers its influence as a cultural icon.
