Wallace Design Collective

Named after legendary Oklahoma author Ralph Ellison, The Ellison is a stylishly comfortable 120-room boutique hotel located in Oklahoma City’s Triangle at Classen Curve – a neighborhood offering some of the area’s most unique shops and restaurants. The Ellison marks Marriott International’s first foray into Oklahoma under its Tribute Portfolio brand, which focuses on independent boutique hotels “rooted in their local community.”

Wallace Design Collective provided structural engineering services for the new five-story, 75,000 square foot hotel featuring a rooftop swimming pool and bar, 24-hour fitness center, 7,000 square feet of meeting space including a ballroom and library lounge, a market, and Milo, a restaurant led by Top Chef finalist, Chef Josh Valentine.
