Trade Show Booth Design Ideas for 2021
From trade show tents to cardboard booths and custom-made booths, these are some ideas to captivate your potential customers this 2021.
10X10 Trade Show Tents
An evergreen solution in the world of trade shows, trade show tents are lightweight metallic structures that display graphics printed on vinyl.
Trade show tents are extremely popular and with good reason. They are a versatile, durable, and effective way to advertise your business.
This solution protects you from the elements at outdoor events and enhances the visibility of your brand or products when the event is held indoors.
While trade show tents can cover considerable space, they are easy to install and disassemble. Additionally, they require only basic maintenance to stay vibrant and last longer. Vinyl is really sturdy and can withstand even the most extreme weather conditions.
The most popular size in trade show tents is 10×10, although custom sizes are available as well.
Tent Backdrop
As its name suggests, a tent backdrop provides an attractive graphic setting to ensure that your message gets noticed even at the busiest trade show.
If you are planning to use them as a standalone solution, tent backdrops are ideal for indoor events because they don’t offer as much protection from the elements as tents do. However, if the event is held outdoors, tent backdrops are a great alternative to use in combination with your trade show tent or truss display.
At their most basic, tent backdrops are flat panels, but you can use more than one panel to create a more complex effect. Here, one tent backdrop is the main graphic element, while the other smaller panels provide visual support.
If you want to associate your brand with organic shapes, there are curved tent backdrops that will help you incorporate a sense of movement and free flow into your trade show booth.
Finally, your tent backdrop can also function as a step and repeat banner, offering a space where people who visit your booth can take selfies with a background that displays your logo and those of your sponsors.
Truss Display and Fabrics
Truss displays consist of modular metallic components (usually made of aluminum) that form a framework that is both robust and lightweight.
These displays project a more modern and dynamic appearance than other alternatives. Also, their modular structure offers lots of possibilities to create new configurations and integrate elements like graphics, fabrics, lights, and video.
If durability is your priority, or if you need to display large or heavy items, truss displays are the way to go. Other benefits of truss trade show displays include:
- Flexibility
- Sturdiness
- Unique appearance
- Portable
- Customizable
- Efficiency
Truss displays are functional and fit almost any type of company. And if you combine them with other visual solutions such as signage or stand and repeat banners, you can rest assured that the next trade show you attend will be a resounding branding success for your business.
Cardboard Booth
Looking for a way to set your brand apart with a groundbreaking and environmentally friendly solution? Then we have the answer you are looking for.
Before the pandemic hit, cardboard booths were gaining traction as one of the most interesting trends in the world of trade shows. And with in-person events set to resume all over the world, these innovative booths are ready to continue impressing audiences everywhere.
If you believe that cardboard is limited to cubic shapes, it’s time to start thinking outside the box. Actually, cardboard booths are extremely versatile because cardboard is rigid but easy to cut and handle.
As a matter of fact, cardboard is one of the best alternatives if what you have in mind is a trade show booth that incorporates lots of curves or unusual shapes.
This versatility is the reason why cardboard is often used to build scale models of houses and artifacts: it can do anything! Recent advances in large format printing technology allow companies to take full advantage of this material that feels familiar and cutting-edge at the same time.
From a graphic standpoint, you can opt to print on the entirety of the cardboard’s surface for a high-impact visual solution. Or you can keep the printed area to a minimum, creating a more organic look that your customers will love.
Custom-Made Booth
Your business is unique, and so should be your trade show booth.
