Light A Display Booth

Table lamps can be used as secondary light sources for your display booth.


Display lights for booths are often clip-on lamps. Clip-on lamps have the lighting source and screen in one end and a clip where the foot of the lamp is originally placed. This is because clip-on lamps attach to the booth itself to best highlight the products or services offered. To best display your booth at a convention or show, use clip-on lamps as your primary lighting and use a secondary lighting source, if applicable, to highlight smaller items in your booth.








Instructions


1. Set up the display booth to determine your lighting options. If you have a wall divider between your booth and the next booth, use that to your advantage in terms of lighting. If not, use the display booth presentation board itself as your light holder.


2. Look around to see how much natural light you have at your display booth. If you gain plenty of natural light, you may not need any secondary lighting to highlight your content. If you have little natural lighting, you should place some secondary lighting by your display booth after installing the primary lighting.








3. Prepare your primary source of lighting, which are the clip-on lamps. Clip on the lamps on the wall divider around your display booth or on the display board itself.


4. Place the lights so they face directly on the display booth and the content. You want to add several lights around the display booth, so shades and shadows are not created on the content. For example, if you place a clip-on lamp on the left side of the display board and it shines on the content, a shade will appear on the right side of the display booth content. To even it out, place a lamp on the right side of the booth to shine on the content.


5. Apply secondary lighting to your booth, such as floor lamps or table lamps, to create additional lighting. For example, if you have a small table with product samples or service description brochures, highlight this table with a floor lamp or a table lamp. The primary lighting sources may not provide enough lighting for smaller tables or area in your display booth.


6. Step back and look at your lit display booth. Adjust your primary and secondary lighting, so your content is well displayed. You want to avoid shaded areas on your booth board.
