In traditional museum exhibits, graphic design is relegated to small lines of text on object labels or on information panels and maybe a gallery name sign or two. Click on the picture above to read how Wayne Hunt created a better way to read this important information.

demonstrates the advantages of the “lighter than air” Helium line of luggage when a case soars
to a level just above the 14' high rim – literally on a column of air. Click here to read how he makes
his luggage lighter then all the rest.
The 2006 Exhibit Builder Magazine Transportation Survey was mailed to 150 exhibit builders and 100 transportation suppliers, which included exhibit carrier head offices, corporate branch offices, agents, and exhibit transportation consultants. Potential exhibit builder respondents were selected from a variety of sources that comprise a database of approximately 1,500 potential respondents.
The Exhibit Builder Economic Survey is mailed to potential respondents who are selected from a master database. Three-hundred and fifty potential respondents were selected to receive the survey. The survey shows that the typical exhibit builder’s sales volume rose, in the past year, by 10.17%, up to nearly five and three-quarter million dollars.

A key to success – and avoiding problems – is for the exhibit builder to be intimately involved with the transportation process, and, in fact, the whole of the system that makes up exhibit transportation logistics.

So you are designing an exhibit and
have spent a great deal of time selecting its size, materials to give it that
special look and feel, graphic components and accessories. Now it is time to
get it noticed by selecting from the right lighting options.
Light where would we be without it? In
the dark! We never really stop and think about light, but it is an essential part
of every day life and also an essential part of every exhibit and display. Light
makes color, light makes everything come to life, and everyone wants to breathe
life into their exhibit.
