Tradeshows are a great adventure for many working people. Some of you get to set them up and work hard while others get to take a booze filled Vegas vacation and call it work. The problem with a lot of these shows though is the ugly design behind many of the booths. Here are a few examples of booth design I found unique and interesting. Maybe they can inspire some of you responsible for building them.

This is a very clean and bright booth for the Ojo personal video phone. Simple booth design can be tricky as a lot of times the booth can just come across as empty and lazy. Lighting and colors are very important.

Their are many styles of booths out there but I’ve never seen one like this. Very original indeed.

The NorthShore Villas and Yacht Club booth at the 1st Annual West MI Cottage & Lakefront Living Show, DeVos Place, Grand Rapids, Michigan. I really liked this design, it looks like a lot of work went into it. That background would have been fun to paint.

Very clean and large. That large spinning fan must have looked great in action.

This booth for Moshi is pretty swell. Very clean and very well done.
