Happy Wall Design created a custom, jungle-themed Dimensional Mural for a pediatric hallway. This mural which measures 7’ h x 23’ l and features small jungle creatures that utilize camouflage in the jungle environment. Children can make a game of discovering dozens of tiny frogs, lizards, butterflies and birds that are hidden in this mural.

A Dimensional Mural for a Pediatric Floor

Location: University Health System Sky Tower, San Antonio, TX

Happy Wall Design just installed this 32-foot-long, floor-to-ceiling Party in the Park mural in an open-concept waiting room that doubles as a play area for young patients who are experiencing lengthy hospital stays. The inspiration behind this mural is to bring the park indoors to spark humor and imaginative thinking.  In this narrative, the animals that typically live in a park, but are normally out of site, have emerged and are making their way to a birthday party.

This area is still under construction, so for now, we have a few cell phone snaps to share. More pictures coming soon.

Sensory Play Sculptures for a Daycare

Location: Austin Shelter for Women and Children, Austin, TX

Sometimes we make Happy Playgrounds! This project was in collaboration with Virginia Fleck Studio. Reflect and Resound are a pair of sensory play-house sculptures located at a women and children’s shelter. Reflect is a walk-in kaleidoscope that engages each child to discover their own reflection as a mandala. Resound is a sound-hood that invites children to make and listen for sounds from nearby child height jewel-flowers or listen for birdsong from the 10ft. jewel-flower that reaches up into the canopy of an oak tree. With Reflect and Resound, we made a place for children to create an extraordinary experience with their bodies through their own ordinary movements and sounds.
