Two semi-circle leather couches strike a pose with a circular ottoman on a white-carpet runway, creating a chic and welcoming place for attendees to kick back and relax. The eye-popping pink couches stand out against the exhibit’s black and white interior, beckoning to weary passersby.

A study in contrasts, CaesarStone paired its quartz surfaces with the modern, smooth lines of these Z-shaped chairs. The transparency of the tangerine and light brown acrylic was a perfect companion to the dense traditional materials used in the tables and pedestals.

Sometimes the obvious is apropos. That’s why Croatian pharmaceutical company Belupo d.d. used this pill-shaped bench to draw attention to its new allergy drug. Made of wood, laminate, and plastic cushions, the tablet is the perfect cure for the common booth.

Circles and squares are so last year. This free-form stool looks more like an errant puzzle piece than exhibit furniture, which is exactly what the folks at Exhibit Concepts Inc. were going for. Paired with a lava lamp roughly 4-feet tall, this leather bench is just too cool.


Qualys Inc., a provider of on-demand security audits, is always on guard to protect its customers’ networks. These stunning stools — retrofitted stainless-steel planters with built-in clocks — represent 12 international cities and symbolize Qualys’ ability to provide 24/7 global network security.


With a name like Big Ass Fans Co., simple wooden stools would be a big-ass faux pas. That’s why this exhibitor opted for these dramatic yellow cubes. Made of semi-hardened foam and simple polypropylene legs, these knee-high beauties are almost as memorable as the company’s name.
