EVENT & EXHIBITION DESIGN
Events and exhibitions are among the highest value opportunities your business has to make an impression. We design impactful exhibition stands, event graphics and branded environments that attract attention, communicate your proposition and convert visitors into genuine business opportunities.
Businesses spend significant budget on exhibition space, travel and staffing, yet regularly show up with display materials that fail to reflect the quality of what they offer. In a busy exhibition hall or event environment, poor visual design means lost attention and missed opportunities.
Common signs your event and exhibition design needs attention include:
- Exhibition stands that blend in rather than stand out in a busy hall
- Event materials that do not reflect your current brand or positioning
- Inconsistent graphics across banners, stands and supporting collateral
- A visual presence that does not match the quality of your product or service
What Is Event & Exhibition Design?
Event and exhibition design is the process of creating the branded visual environment and supporting materials your business uses at trade shows, conferences, product launches and corporate events. This includes exhibition stand graphics, pull up banners, pop up displays, event signage, stage backdrops, branded environments and all supporting printed collateral.
Effective event design does more than fill a space. It creates a visual identity for your presence that attracts the right visitors, communicates your proposition clearly at a glance and gives your team a powerful environment in which to have commercial conversations.
When your event and exhibition materials are designed as a cohesive, on brand system, your business commands attention in competitive environments and delivers a consistently professional impression to every person who visits your stand or attends your event.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
What event and exhibition design services does TripSix Design offer?
We design the full range of event and exhibition materials including exhibition stand graphics, pull up banners, roller banners, pop up displays, event signage, stage backdrops, wayfinding graphics, branded environments and all supporting printed event collateral. Every element is designed as part of a cohesive, on brand system that represents your business at its best in competitive event environments.
Why is professional exhibition stand design important for generating leads at trade shows?
In a busy exhibition hall, visitors make a decision about whether to stop at your stand within seconds. Professional exhibition stand design gives your business the visual presence needed to attract attention, communicate your proposition clearly and create the right environment for quality commercial conversations. Businesses with well designed stands consistently generate more leads and better quality visitor engagement than those with generic or poorly executed displays.
Can you design exhibition materials for any stand size or format?
Yes. We design exhibition graphics for stands of all sizes and configurations, from small shell scheme panels and pop up displays through to large format custom exhibition environments. We work to your specific stand dimensions and contractor specifications, ensuring all artwork is supplied at the correct size, resolution and file format for accurate production.
Do you supply print ready artwork for exhibition and event materials?
Yes. All event and exhibition materials we design are delivered as production ready artwork files built to the exact specifications of your chosen print or display supplier. This includes the correct colour profile, resolution, bleed and file format for each individual item. We can also manage the print production and delivery process on your behalf to ensure everything arrives correctly and on time for your event.
Can you design a full suite of matching event materials?
Yes. We regularly design complete suites of event and exhibition materials that work together as a cohesive branded system. This may include an exhibition stand, pull up banners, event signage, a stage backdrop, printed literature and branded giveaway artwork — all designed consistently so your brand looks unified and professional across every element of your event presence.
Can you design event materials that match our existing brand identity?
Yes. If you have an established brand identity and brand guidelines, we will work within your visual system to ensure all event and exhibition materials are fully consistent with your current brand. If your guidelines are limited or your brand has evolved, we can advise on how to extend or refresh your identity as part of the project to ensure everything works together effectively.
What is the difference between a shell scheme and a custom exhibition stand?
A shell scheme is a modular stand system provided by the exhibition venue or organiser, typically consisting of white panels, a fascia board and basic fittings. Custom exhibition stands are designed and built specifically for your business, offering greater creative freedom and visual impact. We design graphics for both, creating the strongest possible visual result within the constraints and opportunities of each format.
Can you design event branding for a corporate conference or product launch?
Yes. We design event branding for corporate conferences, product launches, awards evenings, roadshows and other business events. This typically includes stage and backdrop graphics, signage, wayfinding, printed programmes, branded presentations, digital displays and all supporting event collateral. We approach each event as a branded environment, ensuring every visual element works together to deliver a consistent and professional attendee experience.
How far in advance should we brief our event and exhibition design?
We recommend briefing your event and exhibition design as early as possible, particularly for larger or more complex projects. For a standard pull up banner or small display, two to three weeks is typically sufficient. For a full exhibition stand with multiple elements and supporting collateral, four to six weeks is preferable to allow adequate time for design, amends, artwork preparation and print production. We will always confirm a realistic timeline in your proposal based on your specific event date and requirements.
Can event and exhibition materials be reused across multiple events?
Yes. We design event and exhibition materials with reusability in mind wherever possible, helping you maximise the return on your design and print investment. This may include designing modular stand graphics that can be reconfigured, creating generic brand messaging that remains relevant across different events, or producing a set of interchangeable panels that can be updated cost effectively between shows.
