Problem

Their previous trade show booth was forgettable, a standard display that blended into the noise of the trade show floor. It wasn't creating conversations, it was waiting for them. The brand needed something that stopped people before they even read a word.

Original trade show booth design

Goal

Design a booth experience, not just a display. One that used the brand itself as the concept, turned the space into a destination, and gave potential leads a reason to approach and learn more.

Ideas

The logo is a gift box. So we built one. A 12-foot installation with four branded exterior panels and a functional interior serving as a private meeting space with testimonials on the walls, designed to move serious prospects from curiosity to conversation.

TV on the aisle wall

Looping brand content on the exterior pulled attention from across the floor before anyone reached the booth.

Photo → gift card printer

Attendees could take a photo and have it printed on a gift card in seconds—a hands-on demo of the product that doubled as a takeaway.

Results

  • Highest foot traffic the brand had seen at any trade show to date

  • Interior meeting space created a clear funnel: attention → engagement → sales conversation

  • Booth became a navigational landmark on the floor — people directed others to "the giant gift box"
