Capstone Project
Vintage Volvo Museum

The Vintage Volvo Museum (VVM) is proposed to highlight the connection between the under and above worlds. In the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle, peoples’ lives have increasingly intertwined with Scandinavian culture. VVM can promote the existing classic car industry around the neighborhood, including the ubiquitous Volvo. Vintage Volvo Museum is intended to be an inviting but mysterious building. It connects people and vehicles through its ramps while eventually inviting them to the bridge. The ultimate goal of the work is to join the under and above lives through a sanctuary that treasures this part of Ballard’s Scandinavian history.
