The White Cloud Lodge, in Payne County, Oklahoma near Perkins, Oklahoma, was a Contemporary-style work of architect Elmira Sauberan Smyrl. It was built in 1966 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.[1]
The building is a thin shell concrete structure which she designed to serve as a "school for family living", back in 1955 as her thesis project at Oklahoma State University.[2] The builder was John Barta.[3]
Later the building was closed and used only for storage.[2]
