Downtown FabWorks Portfolio | Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum

description

We partnered closely with Scenario to shape several centerpiece elements throughout the museum, each crafted to support both form and function. From the bold steel-and-quartz welcome desk to the towering, lighted faceted wall cradling rare race cars, every installation served a purpose while telling a story. Our work on the winner’s gallery combined sleek aluminum finishes with hidden LED illumination for a clean, flexible showcase of Indy’s champions. One of our favorite features was the projection-mapped Model Base Exhibit—a hands-on scale replica surrounded by interactive monitors that invite visitors to discover the Speedway’s heritage at their own pace. We also brought to life several custom builds, including a dynamic pin map wall, storytelling stations, and integrated tech desks to round out the guest experience. Following the renovation, Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum received the coveted Museum of the Year award from The International Historic Motoring Awards, considered the world's most prestigious awards in the collector car world.

Dan and his team at Downtown FabWorks were able to fully produce and execute a large-scale structure thoughtfully and in record time when my project's deadline was threatened by Hurricane Ida. I couldn't be more appreciative of Dan's professionalism and hard work during a very stressful and uncertain time. Dan and his team were a joy to work with!
