olson sundberg kundig allen architects: lightcatcher at whatcom museum
jim olson of olson sundberg kundig allen architects has designed the 'lightcatcher' at whatcom museum, seattle, a new addition to the city of bellingham's downtown arts and cultural district. the structure will add 42 000 square feet of space to the museum and will house state-of-the-art galleries for art exhibitions and the new family interactive gallery. the lightcatcher is named for its focal point and most innovative feature - a translucent wall 37 feet high and 180 feet long that captures the northwest’s most precious natural resource, sunlight. the building utilizes natural materials endemic to the region.
