Just because you plan to have a seating area in your booth doesn’t mean your only options are high-top tables or couches in a lounge!
Check out these clever examples spotted around the IMEX show floor in Las Vegas:
California captured that laid-back beach vibe with a cluster of Adirondack chairs around a low coffee table. (A great suggestion from my friend Rama Beerfas at Lev Promotions: Add branded or custom cushions – like the orange and black ones in the photo – to reinforce messaging.)
Visit Baltimore went with a more urban neighborhood vibe and picnic tables on green turf for their small gathering spaces in front of a street scene that opened into a hospitality area.
Ireland featured a more playful vibe in their booth with a table atop a green bicycle, and a gold bathtub converted into a couch. (There were several other quirky conversation pieces around the booth – you can see them all in my post inside the Exhibit Marketers Café Community!)
Savannah positioned a pair of white rocking chairs in front of a backdrop featuring those famous oak trees. (They also had a presentation area with a gazebo and more white rocking chairs, plus a park bench.)
Puerto Rico created a playful vibe with their swivel egg chairs, complete with a giant logo on the back. (The large rustic structure in the background featured a popular coffee bar area inside.)
And perhaps the most unique space was in the Newport Beach exhibit … how about meeting in a boat on the show floor!
But wait – there’s more!
You know that giant bear in the background of the California booth photo? What you might not have realized is that it’s actually a giant video wall! (Quite possibly the most “Wow moment” I had on the show floor.)
So what types of creative seating have you seen on the show floor or hosted in your booth? Please share in the comments!
