This mid-century building in Tulsa catches the eye with its geometric façade, clean lines and repeating patterns. It has the Space Age look that brought futuristic styling to everyday commercial streets. No elaborate sign needed here—the building itself does a good job attracting attention.
Its name and original purpose remain uncertain, but there’s plenty to admire from the sidewalk. The design recalls the postwar years when architects experimented with shapes and materials to give familiar buildings a modern identity. Whatever happened inside, someone clearly wanted the outside to deserve a second look. 09-17

Here’s another mid-century building in Tulsa, this one sporting blue-green colors and a diamond-pattern façade. There were no signs to identify it, but the bold geometry made its own introduction. The color scheme adds to the futuristic appearance without needing any neon assistance.
Its original use remains a mystery, though the exterior gives roadside visitors a reason to pause. Whether it housed offices or another business, the building recalls a time when imaginative patterns could turn an ordinary commercial property into something memorable. Even without a name attached, it’s worth getting the camera out. 09-17
