(Orlando, FL) Nov 19th, 2024 – Storyland Studios, a renowned creative design firm, has teamed up with Extreme Legacy to design and build an impressive four-story caterpillar structure for Bethany Children’s Health Center in Oklahoma. This eye-catching installation will be a centerpiece on the exterior of the hospital’s new expansion wing. After completing the initial engineering design for Storyland Studios, Bethany Children’s Health Center collaborated further with Extreme Legacy to bring this extraordinary project to life. The caterpillar structure’s vibrant colors will be visible from afar along Route 66 and will feature interactive LED lights, which will dance and illuminate the structure at night.

In addition to its stunning visual impact, the structure is equipped with programmable lights, allowing the hospital to change lighting patterns for various occasions. There will also be a customizable attachment on the caterpillar’s head, enabling the display of holiday and seasonal decorations throughout the year. “This project is incredibly meaningful to us,” said Phil Wilson, Chief Development Officer at Extreme Legacy. “It’s a wonderful opportunity to create something special for the children at the hospital, and it certainly pulls at the heartstrings.”
