I had never dealt with GKD nor had I installed a screen like the one we furnished at the Pfeiffer University Health Science building. I was almost sure we were in for a difficult process. I was really surprised when the whole relationship went smoothly. GKD was very helpful and professional. We could not have been more pleased with the outcome.

Our parking garage project at our Winstar World Casino property presented a perfect opportunity to use GKD’s Mediamesh product, as it allowed us to use the garage’s façade facing the adjacent interstate as a live-action billboard to advertise the resort.  It was the first time we have ever used this product, but GKD and their experts were with us every step of the design and construction process.

GKD worked hard to help us realize a complex vision for a unique interactive public art piece for the Bass Biology Building at Stanford University. Their level of dedication to the project and deep knowledge of the materials made me feel confident that we would be able to successfully address any challenges that might arise. I’m looking forward to the next opportunity to work together.
