The Layout

The stand featured a thoughtfully designed layout to ensure a seamless visitor experience. A combination of open seating areas, interactive workspaces, and a private meeting zone allowed for both dynamic conversations and focused discussions.

A custom-built seating area, finished with high-quality laminates and cushioned tops, provided a comfortable yet professional setting. The inclusion of fabric-upholstered sofas and chairs enhanced the relaxed atmosphere while maintaining a sleek, corporate aesthetic.

The Design & Construction

The stand was carefully crafted to foster engagement, collaboration, and impactful discussions. Its construction prioritized premium materials that balanced durability with sustainability, incorporating elements such as responsibly sourced wood, energy-efficient lighting, and recyclable materials. Digital integration played a key role in reinforcing Microsoft’s presence. Strategically placed LED displays and interactive screens were embedded throughout the stand, amplifying the brand’s messaging and engaging visitors in an immersive experience.

Screens and digital graphic were also installed on the stand to convey the brand message.

Sustainability was at the forefront of the stand’s design. SNB ensured that materials used in the build met eco-friendly standards, with certain components designed for reusability at future events.

Additionally, energy-efficient lighting solutions and modular design elements reduced the overall environmental impact.
