Concept &
Design
Hosokawa Alpine envisioned a double-deck exhibit that not only represented their brand but also mimicked the design of their machinery in an elegant and striking way. To bring this concept to life, we centered the design around a stunning pin light chandelier, which became the focal point of the entire booth. From there, we built a sleek, modern space that balanced industrial precision with visual sophistication.
Challenge
With a large team and regular client entertainment, Hosokawa Alpine required a booth design that could comfortably accommodate up to 40 people at any given time. They needed ample room for meetings, conversations, and client engagement while maintaining a cohesive design that felt inviting and functional.
Solution
We crafted a stylish and functional booth by designing a cozy lounge area beneath the upper deck, outfitted with hanging plants and warm pendant lights that created an inviting atmosphere. Bench seating offered a comfortable space for socializing, while strategically placed seating pods provided semi-private areas for business meetings. This combination of open, welcoming spaces and more intimate settings ensured that the booth met the client’s needs for both business and entertainment.
Results
Hosokawa Alpine’s booth was a standout at NPE, receiving rave reviews from both attendees and the client. The elegant design and functional layout allowed for seamless client interactions and meetings. Hosokawa Alpine deemed it one of their most successful trade show appearances, thanks to the perfect balance of style, comfort, and practicality.
Testimonial
I just wanted to say thank you for all of your hard work with our booth… the booth came out absolutely beautiful & all of you (plus Jim) really pulled through for us, we very much appreciate it. And, I don’t know who did this, but the custom “Alpine” structure on the bar area even had texture to it to match what our winder actually looks like, I figured it would just be flat.. I was very impressed with the fine attention to detail! It was a pleasure working with Absolute! Alana Carr, Inside Sales & Marketing Manager
