SpeedPro East Bay was announced as the 2019 winner of the SpeedPro Project of the Year with the “Highland Hospital History Wall” project at Highland Hospital, a renowned regional trauma center in Oakland, Calif. The award-winning project required custom graphic, high-quality wall murals with layers to showcase the hospital’s rich history in a high foot traffic emergency department corridor.

Wendy Jung, the owner of graphic design firm Jung Design, recommended SpeedPro East Bay as a preferred printing and install partner based on past project experience. Originally, the project was to create digital displays, which was ultimately scrapped due to budgetary constraints. Together, Jung and SpeedPro developed an alternative project proposal of large-size wall murals on two corridor walls, each measuring 31-feet long by 9-feet tall which required no structural change to the walls or additional power or data infrastructure to support digital displays, all while staying within budget.

“The design and decision-making process took several months,” said Nicole Verduzco at SpeedPro East Bay. “We needed to have buy-in from all hospital stakeholders for the final proof, which required months of providing samples and mockups. We were honored to be able to support the hospital’s decision-making process and consult with our collective creative design, printing and installation expertise.”
