TBE Architects is a Native American-founded firm specializing in hotel, casino and resort design. The firm’s disciplines include architecture, mas- ter planning, interior design and branding development, and its portfolio of experience includes well over 300 casino and 400 hotel projects throughout North America.
While TBE has worked with many domestic and internationally recognized brands such as Caesars, Hilton and Churchill Downs, its reputation for spectacular design is most evident within Indian Country. TBE truly is honored to have worked for 121 tribes and First Nations since 1971.
TBE designers work closely with each client to more fully understand significant cultural elements so that symbols of tradition and heritage can be tastefully incorporated into the guest experience, creating “living spaces” where memories are made, history is told, relationships are formed and communities are strengthened. Consider, for example, the Garden Court Atrium at We-Ko-Pa Casino Resort. This neutral space is filled with vibrant abstractions that tell the creation story of the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation.
TBE Architects believes the best designs must do more than look amazing. They also need to function flawlessly, maximize efficiency and strengthen tribal sovereignty with an ROI that supports financial and economic independence.
The firm is proud to be an active Associate Member of the Indian Gaming Association, the California Nations Indian Gaming Association, the Oklahoma Indian Gaming Association and the Washington Indian Gaming Association.
