If you exhibit around the world you may have met some of our build crew in the halls.
To introduce our contractors, we thought we’d show you a quick video showing some of their handy work.
We don’t employ our own exhibition stand designers, we use freelancers. The reason for this is simple. Like all artists, designers have their own style and way of working. Our customers are also very different, and their requirements vary on a large scale. Some clients demand a corporate look, and others are less formal and need a more conceptual feel or tone.
In our meeting with the client, we establish their design brief and get a feel for the criteria and style. We choose a designer that is more likely to match the design criteria of the brief. Sometimes, we may develop more than one design concept. Initial ideas are then shared, so we can agree the direction the client would like to develop further.
Take a look at our exhibition stand design page to get some inspiration. Or, you can submit your requirement by completing our exhibition stand design brief.
Would you like to work with a forward-thinking, creative agency? One that delivers award winning exhibition stand design and display solutions?
