2023 Best of Displays
KUMC – Royals Fanfest Wall
KU Medical Center Wanted an eco-friendly one-time use photo backdrop. They wanted a sturdy 10’ x 30’ wall that could be installed by one person easily. It had to be lightweight, easy to assemble and low cost. Since it would be set up in a high-traffic area of a convention center, it had to be sturdy so that it wouldn’t be knocked over by the anticipated foot traffic at the event.
Our solution was a 4 folded triangular base with 4 connecting wall units that extended to the full height of 120 inch corrugate. 2 extra creases were added for rigidity and were used to connect each of the 4 walls.

2023 Best of Display Graphics
“Legends Live Here” Champions Wall display for the College Basketball Experience in Kansas City, Our Creative Team designed the art for the wallpaper to look like a basketball court and they worked with our customer to design the print, assembly and installation for the finished pieces.
There were multiple components to this project. The first was the wallpaper. We had to design wallpaper that would print large enough for the wall shown and appear to be a realistic basketball court floor. Working from a small sample provided by the client, our Creative Director used Photoshop to create the floor shown on the finished wallpaper. He had to create the design so that the wall appeared to dissolve into the printed floor.
The wallpaper design was printed on IJ180c Wallpaper using the HP 3100 Latex printer. It was laminated with 3M 8520 Matte lam using our Arkane 1650 laminator. This was designed for a 36.5 foot wall.
The 48” diameter gold award symbol was printed on brushed gold Max Metal using the Agfa Taura printer using UV inks. We used the Kongsberg-C to cut the max metal with a 3mm coated bit. We’re shipping scaled version of this for your consideration.
The images on the wall are 2 photos each printed on Flexmark Permanent Adhesive Vinyl using our HP360 with Latex Ink. They were laminated using the Arkane 1650 laminator and Flexmark Velvet laminate. The base piece is 16” x 16” mounted to 12 mm Black Sintra. The smaller piece, is 5”x7” mounted to 6 mm Black Sintra. We attached the smaller board to the larger one using VHP tape.
We installed the finished products as shown in the attached photos including the wall paper. We used Eagle Clip Z-clips to attach the images to the wall.

2023 Best of Display Installation
We met with the Advertising Company and their Customer at the end of March last year to discuss their Royals Pepsi campaign to begin with the 2022 baseball season opener. They provided us with a loose description of the finished product that they wanted. Their direction was minimal, but they wanted something that looked like a can of Pepsi pouring into a glass that integrated with the hanging Pepsi board display.
Our Creative team designed the art for the can, the pour, and the die-line. Inquest provided the Pepsi and crown art for the printed base. We had to ensure that the finished piece would hang from the ceiling level, not bend, and support the weight all 4 pieces when they were assembled and installed.
After the initial prototype, the customer asked for the cheering fans in the stand that are depicted on the base.
We completed the item as 4 pieces that were printed and cut separately. We assembled the 4 pieces into the finished product shown and then installed them in stores throughout the metro area.
The team used the Agfa Tauro to print each of the pieces. They used the Kern laser cuter for the precision cutting required for the acrylic and the Kongsberg C for the crown, the can and the base
