Trade Fair Design Annual 2020/21

Until spring 2020 the trade fair sector was still boasting: “You can’t email a handshake!” Then corona came along and everything was turned upside down: exhibitions were postponed, cancelled or relocated into digital space. It also brought forth new concepts with which we had not reckoned a couple of years ago: virtual twins, AR or VR walk-through stands, online exhibitions with new meeting formats, or quite different ideas that are currently turning the sector upside down, providing new impetuses and making the trade fair a place as we have never known it before. The new Trade Fair Design Annual presents not only the most exciting exhibition settings of the previous year but also entices us into virtual space. Sabine Marinescu and Janina Poesch are both architects, journalists and founders of PLOT – the network in the area of spatial installations. Since 2008 they have been publishing print and online magazines as well as reference books in the wide field of scenography.#designbooks: Book introduction with Sabine Marinescu and Janina Poesch on YouTube (German only)#designbooks: Interview with the editors on YouTube (German only)Search inside on ISSUU.com

Event Design Yearbook 2020 / 2021

The world is changing. A host of developments are impacting our lives: sustainability, values, equality, purpose, digitisation or "Gen Z". However, a consideration of the majority of brand experiences gives rise to the question: Where is the change? It occurred: with COVID-19! And suddenly it was about people’s lives, about our supply system and saving our and many other sectors. This is therefore a special Event Design Yearbook. It allows us to revel in projects that have been prohibited for months in 2020. It also shows experience concepts from the time before COVID-19. With all the foreseen changes after the pandemic, as described for example by Cedric Ebener in the interview, one can only speculate how the concepts presented here might look in future.#designbooks: Author Katharina Stein about the book series on YouTube (German only)Search inside on ISSUU.com

Event Design Yearbook 2019 / 2020

The current credo of live communication is: Let them participate and decide! It seems that the times in which products were displayed in rigid procedures and self-celebratory event formats are over. Now the question is what will enthuse visitors, how can they be incorporated and not least encouraged to make social media posts. A noticeable number of event formats in this edition indeed involve their participants to a great extent. This is evident in concepts orientated towards added value and experiences, as well as in possibilities for interaction and individual freedom of choice. However, what sounds straightforward is a challenge. How does one overcome inhibitions? What enthuses spoilt visitors hungry for experiences? How does one create experiences suitable for social media? Many of the around 60 events in this edition show potential solutions in practice. An in-depth interview provides answers and advice from specialists. Best cases of instagramable events and locations. 60 events in Germany, Belgium, China, South Korea, Switzerland, Austria, Russia, USA, Italy, Portugal, Denmark, Spain, Qatar ...Search inside on ISSUU.com

Trade Fair Design Annual 2017/18

20 years' Trade Fair Design Annual! This anniversary edition breaks all the records: more trade fair stands, more pages, more trends. Including an interview on the future of the trade fair. Current brand communication is increasingly moving towards real-digital narratives. The storytelling trend plays a major role in this, as well as the type of communication, in times of complete digitisation. Particularly at trade fairs, personal discussion is still the key aspect of every presentation. With this edition of the Trade Fair Design Annual, the authors present a series of successful examples of transmedia storytelling, attaching particular importance to the accomplished use of means of communication. What is decisive, however, is the exceptional design of the overall presentation, which can add communicative and therefore informative value for the exhibitor, as well as provide an emotional experience for the visitors.

Event Design Yearbook 2017 / 2018

We are living in a networked age and can no longer deny digitisation. Although the events sector is currently characterised primarily by live experiences, events are becoming increasingly hybrid: new forms of spatial communication are emerging, which blur the boundaries between real and virtual experience. With this yearbook, the authors present, informatively and with a wealth of images, more than 50 successful examples where both digital innovation and personal encounters are the focus of the concept. Through numerous interviews with specialists in the sector, they venture a look into the future, in order to ask quite exclusively: "What is actually 'the next big thing'?"

Interviews and theoretical texts accompany the projects, with inspiration and information going hand in hand and providing an insight into the sector.

Exhibition Planning

The first guide for improved communication between the museum as client and designer as service provider"Without you it would be easier," comments editor Jan-Christian Warnecke from Landesmuseum Württemberg in Stuttgart with a twinkle in his eye when talking about the collaboration between client (museum) and contractor (designer) on exhibition projects. Together with guest authors experienced in exhibition he investigates this relationship, giving both sides the chance to have their say. That way experienced museum people find out how designers think, and designers gain an insight into the organisational structures of museums and the objectives they pursue. Practice-related texts about teaming, conflict potential, project management through to the disagreeable subject of money identify the problems which those involved in planning an exhibition will face, but also the opportunities. The practical and entertaining publication is intended to help the two sides understand each other better - because at the end of the day they both need each other! With articles by: Edwin Becker, Anja Dauschek, Hans-Peter Hüsch, Christine Kappei, Katja Lembke, Carolyn Marsden-Smith, Dennis Müller, Tobias Neumann, Moritz Schneider, Matthias Ohm, Renate Schliekmann, Ulrich Schwarz.Search inside on ISSUU.com
