The entry Master Plan provides the Tulsa Zoo with the infrastructure and the world-class sense of place to usher in a new era and continue their mission to inspire passion for wildlife in every guest, every day.

The Tulsa Zoo Entry

Master Plan

With an eye toward the future, the Tulsa Zoo partnered with Narrate Design to develop an entry Master Plan to encompass the entire visitor experience. The thoughtful interconnection of spaces — interior, exterior, architecture, and landscape — creates an integrated and immersive visitor experience unique to Tulsa.

The design is influenced by and immersed in the natural world. Whimsical tree-like elements provide shade and strengthen the nature-inspired experience while a large roof overhang identifies the entrance gates and provides relief from the sun. Oklahoma native landscaping and natural stone elements create a transition from the surrounding park to the zoo inside.
