Lightcatcher Museum, Bellingham, WA

THE LIGHTCATCHER is a children’s museum designed by Olson Kundig Architects. The uniquely designed building is named for its focal point and most innovative feature — a spectacular, translucent wall 37 feet high and 180 feet long, that captures the sunlight.

The 42,000-square-foot-building integrates natural materials native to the region and is the first museum in Washington designed and registered to LEED Silver-Level specifications.
