2018 Odyssey Foods Custom Island Exhibit

Trade Show Blog

Custom Exhibit Designed by Exhibits Northwest

While there were many exciting projects in 2018, the custom Odyssey Foods Island for Exhibits Northwest, Inc. was one of our favorites. The “Wow!” factor is off the charts. The exhibit debuted at Seafood Expo North America 2018. This modern 20 x 30 Island Cafe included retail food service with seating and food sampling. The 16 ft. compound curved tower, clad in reclaimed wood planks and recessed ivy trim with large halo lit dimensional logos, served as the visual anchor.

The booth was equipped with a large commercial freezer, custom chef station with a curved metal counter top, and pendant lighting suspended from wood frame laminated canopy. The exhibit had a custom fresh food display and raised platform decking with seating flanked by large backlit branding and literature displays.

Design Details

Odyssey Foods wanted attendees to sample their unique products in an intimate yet approachable experience that mimics an authentic Seattle bistro. An effective chef demo was critical, including seating for buyer conversations and a large menu board to showcase recipes being prepared. This demo area needed easy access to a private prep and storage area. Additionally, the client required real and engaging display areas to showcase the array of Odyssey products. The ongoing menu and product updates required multiple large areas for signage that could be easily changed.

A Seattle Bistro experience was created by combining natural reclaimed wood, faux ivy, industrial fixtures, tall modern compound curve towers, and walls with mounted dimensional halo-lit logos. The fresh seafood display counters and a cladded bunker freezer were reminiscent of Pikes Market. The chef demo area incorporated a large curved bar and tasting counter with a chalk artist menu and formed metal countertop with a sizable storage and adjacent food prep area.

Large informal bistro meeting areas on floating decks were flanked by SuperNova LED Lightboxes, hanging canopies, and pendant lights. ClassicMODUL Aluminum Extrusions powder-coated black framed the lightboxes, canopies and other large graphic areas. A 20 ft. diameter Aero circular hanging sign provided top-level branding. These graphics, along with the other fabric graphics in the booth, were lightweight and easy-to-change.

The space was capped with a twenty ft. diameter tension fabric hanging sign for maximum visual presence. The project was built by Classic Exhibits.
