For 47 years, the Native American-owned firm TBE Architects has been a premier casino-hotel architect in America. “All Hospitality, All the Time” is not simply a tagline. It’s the firm’s client base.

TBE has a depth of experience like no other Native American-owned architecture firm, having worked with more than 114 tribes and First Nations, designing more than 200 casino projects and 400 hotels.

Combining the Native American background and architectural expertise of Chief Boyd, chief executive officer and principal; the creative hotel and casino design expertise of Rich Emery, president and design principal; the design acumen of David Nejelski, creative director and principal; and the management talents of Nick Schoenfeldt, vice president and principal, TBE Architects provides full architectural services including master planning, engineering and interior design, and delivers projects on time and on budget.

Recently the firm was rehired by Wildhorse Resort and Casino in Pendleton, Oregon to complete an additional 214 rooms, four cinemas, 24 bowling lanes, outdoor pool, ballroom/event center, arena and

parking structure at the existing property. Phase I was completed with minimal disruption to business at the existing facility, which remained open and operational during construction.

Phase II, which will add a 24,000-square-foot gaming floor, 3,500-square-foot outdoor pool and more retail options, will prove more of a challenge. But the trust placed in TBE Architects by its clients demonstrates the firm’s ability to perform and work through all challenges to a successful outcome.

The project is characterized by tribal-inspired designs throughout the casino and hotel rooms. By honoring the past, TBE believes, we honor the present.
