The recent shifts in trade show booth design reflect a significant influence from the post-COVID era, embracing a blend of comfort and informality, characterized by the emerging ‘resimercial’ aesthetic. This trend places a heightened emphasis on seamlessly merging residential and commercial elements within booth constructions.
A compelling discussion on this transformation was the subject of this episode of Eventist365, featuring Yanique’s conversation with Charles Pappas, Senior Writer at EXHIBITOR Magazine. The conversation revolved around sustainability, the phenomenon of greenwashing, and the adoption of inclusive language in booth designs. Notably, these innovations hold particular appeal for the upcoming generation of marketers, including Gen Z individuals destined for future roles as Vice Presidents or C-level executives. This shift favorably positions companies for a future where inclusivity and environmental consciousness play pivotal roles in shaping successful marketing strategies.
