Design Challenge
With a century-long legacy, many historical facts and photos have been lost over time, leaving only a sparse collection remaining. To curate our exhibition, we delve into U.S. transportation history to recreate the context. Extensive fact-checking with experts is imperative. Collecting data from employee submissions is time-consuming, while aiming to enrich with interactive elements. Beginning with a reconstructed truck filled with crops, we transport visitors through a century of memories.
Research
Saia 100-year celebration began in late 2023 with mobile museums highlighting the past, present, and future. Analyzing Audience Over Indexes revealed Saia's strong alignment with Veterans and At Risk Youth. Supporting multiple charities bolsters corporate ethos. We transformed a Saia trailer into a mobile museum, engaging communities nationwide with interactive historic timelines. The mobile museum showcases Saia's history, offering Kid-focused, Saia's History, and Employee recognition exhibits.
Inspiration
The concept intricately intertwines with the automotive industry in the United States, drawing inspiration and synergy from its dynamic landscape and evolving trends. The museum immerses visitors in a classic American success story, tying back to Saia humble beginnings and contributing to its overall success and longevity. From selling produce to becoming a logistics giant, each milestone, from the Great Depression to the Motor Carrier Act in 1980, reflects pivotal moments in trucking history.
Project Duration
The truck's tour route includes key cities nationwide and active markets, totaling 34 stops and covering 11,087 miles per year.
Operation Flow
Saia truck models' evolution and a shadowboxed Saia uniform are featured. A 70-inch screen, resembling a billboard, plays Saia ads from the 60s to the present. The simulator, previewed by a CCTV screen, offers a gamer's perspective. Visitors interact with elements like a tethered vegetable, truck locks, and seatbelts. The child-friendly pegboard depicts "The Life of A Shipment," while interactive signs, doors, and metal trivia flaps engage visitors. Pallets with ratchet straps illustrate safety.
