Creating an Elegant Showroom Display
The key to creating an elegant showroom display is implementing graphics that enhance your product or purpose without overwhelming the viewer. Your showroom display should play the role of “best supporting actor” in comparison to the product. Elegance arises from a carefully understated and refined presence; one that favors the traditional over the modern. Your showroom can easily encompass this message through strategic graphics and image placement.
Elegant Showroom Displays
When aiming for an elegant effect, try keeping the following recommendations in mind:
- Choose classic images over contemporary designs
- Opt for calming or majestic scenery
- Ensure that the image and/or photographic quality are/is precise and perfect
- Avoid anything edgy, bold, or excessively bright
- Use clean and simple text fonts where needed
How do these suggestions truly play out in a display? Elegance is marked by a timeless quality. Many companies choose to feature very classic enduring images in their graphics such as scenes from nature, or poetically photographed people. Bird’s eye views of mountain peaks, deep valleys or even shots of towering skyscrapers tend to play on the viewer’s sensitivities. Anything from newspaper prints, time pieces and sepia coloring can create an old world vintage appeal and give a perception of elegance.
Image Placement
Use wall graphics to your advantage and avoid overwhelming the floor of your showroom. Again, elegance is characterized by subtlety. You don’t need your message to be overpowering, so let your showroom display remain slightly understated as it accentuates your product. Allow a bit of color contrast to catch the eye and make use of larger graphic media such wall murals to capture your theme.
Communicating Your Product
Naturally, your graphic displays need to embrace the theme of your product or your company. If vintage or nature-inspired imagery doesn’t match up with your product, then focus more on using simple texts and colors to communicate elegance. Mounting text on a clean background will still impart charm and refinement without the need for more complex images.
Showroom displays can convey a multitude of messages, but elegance relies on a tasteful representation of your product. You’ll want to carefully consider your graphics and consult your printer at length to create the best overall effect.
