We are grateful to have the opportunity to work with our neighbour, Museum of Surrey, for their exhibition Shake Up: Preserving what we value.

And, we are excited to share how we are capable to be the one-stop print shop for the project.

About The Exhibition:

This exhibition showcases earthquake-safe architecture and preparedness by integrating science with ancient Indigenous knowledge. While it also shows how earthquakes in pop culture tie it all together to keep us all grounded.

Working With The Designer

Most of the time, we work closely with designers to achieve their ideas. In this case, the designer has provided the wood pieces to us.

Delivering The Work

After printing and receiving the wood dowels from the designer, we then worked closely with a local seamstress for the perfect finishing.

Go Further With Your Imagination


Use Floor Decals to make the whole space your canvas and bring more creative ideas to life.

Expand Your Canvas & Be Mindful For Safety

High-quality custom-printed decorative floor decals are durable both indoor and outdoor. Yet, they are easily removable.

Social Distancing Arrangement

Having social distancing floor decals is the best way to give your guests clear instructions. They are useful, decorative, and functional in reminding the guests to be mindful of each other and allow them to enjoy the space without setting up signage that gets in their way.

Our Experience:

It has always been a pleasure for our team to be the print shop for projects that are informative to our community. As we are located in the highest risk earthquake zone in Canada, this exhibition originally developed by the Museum of Anthropology at the University of British Columbia. Meanwhile, the additional inputs from the Museum of Surrey have definitely highlighted the Indigenous knowledge, and how we should be prepared.
