Lightcatcher at the Whatcom Museum

Bellingham, Washington

The basic concept for this new $12.8 million museum is that of a museum turned inside out—a building as active on the outside as it is on the inside. An iconic 36-foot-tall, 180-foot-long translucent wall, “the lightcatcher,” is the focal point and backdrop to a central courtyard that functions as gathering place for the city. The exterior of the museum is an invitation to engage in art and allows pedestrians walking by to view the art and activity within.
