SOLOS PARK & PUB

Solo’s Park & Pub was a new concept to OKC which combined the growing demand for a sociallyconnected dog park with a unique bar and restaurant experience. Smith and Pickel partnered with AHMM on creating a facility that would meet the needs of the client – whether indoors, at the openair patio, or throughout the leash-free park. Despite the vibrant and eye-catching appearance of the building façade & large format windows, every component of the project was carefully filtered through the lens of functionality balanced with cost-efficiency.

This project was unique in that it was a structure within a structure – utilizing conventional wood framing with flat-roof trusses enveloped by an over-arching metal building structure. In order to maximize interior volume for the wood structure, all HVAC equipment and ducting was located entirely at the open-air roof, nested below the barn-style metal building structure – a first for S&P in devising and implementing such a solution.
