For Shoptalk 2025, Vibe needed a 20×20 booth that could do two things at once: deliver high-impact brand storytelling through AV-heavy visuals and support real conversations with a hospitality-forward floor plan. Circle Exhibit delivered a clean, modern build featuring a multi-screen video wall, a Las Vegas landmark backdrop for photo moments, and an open meeting layout—planned for smooth on-site execution and efficient cable/AV routing.

Challenge
Vibe’s booth needed to balance big-screen impact with comfortable meeting capacity—inside a 20×20 footprint. The space needed:
A large AV-first backwall that remains readable from multiple aisles
Clean power + data planning to support multi-screen playback without visible cable clutter
A photo-friendly brand moment tied to Las Vegas / Shoptalk traffic flow
Open, flexible hospitality seating that doesn’t block circulation
Fast on-site execution decisions (screen mounting points, cable paths, and clean finish detailing) to reduce last-minute rework
Design vs. On-site Execution
The design treats the booth as a “content stage”: visitors read the story from a distance through a video-led backwall, then transition naturally into hospitality seating for conversations. To keep installation predictable, we planned screen mounting alignment, concealed cable routes, and clean power distribution early—so the on-site team could execute quickly without re-routing at show site. The result is a booth that stays visually minimal while supporting heavy AV demands and high-touch meetings.
Multi-Screen Video Wall for Fast Brand Scanning
A structured video wall layout supports multi-asset playback and quick scanning—ideal for retail marketing audiences who decide in seconds whether to stop and engage.

Make AV the hero without making the booth feel crowded
Keep cable management invisible under real show pressure
Create a “photo stop” that naturally supports lead capture
Protect meeting comfort while preserving aisle openness
Maintain clean brand readability in a high-noise tech environment
Outcome
The booth delivered instant recognition from multiple approaches, using a high-contrast brand wall and clean sightlines that stayed readable under hall lighting.
A multi-screen video wall became the primary attention anchor while keeping the surrounding surfaces intentionally quiet—so content, not clutter, drove engagement.
The plan supported natural circulation around the media wall and meeting area, reducing bottlenecks and keeping conversations from blocking key viewing angles.
Table placement and open entry points enabled quick transitions from walk-up interest to longer discussions—without sacrificing the booth’s visibility.
For Shoptalk, the booth has to work like a media product: your story must land instantly, then convert into conversations. Vibe’s 20×20 uses a simple rule—one content spine + one hospitality zone—so visitors understand the brand fast and teams can meet efficiently. The key isn’t adding more elements; it’s making the AV plan, cable logic, and circulation all feel effortless.
FAQ (5 Q&As)
Q1: What size booth works well for a video-wall-first presence at Shoptalk?
answer: A 20×20 is a strong baseline if the backwall is treated as a “content spine” with planned mounting, power, and cable routes; the key is readability and clean AV execution, not just size.
Q2: How do you keep multi-screen AV reliable during install and show days?
answer: Pre-plan screen mounting points, power distribution, cable paths, and ventilation/heat considerations so playback devices and connections don’t require last-minute rerouting on site.
Q3: What makes booth messaging readable in a crowded commerce-tech hall?
answer: Use high-contrast, short headlines that reference real objects and use cases—like streaming TV placements, audience targeting, retail media workflows, and campaign performance dashboards—so viewers understand the value fast.
Q4: How do you add a photo moment without sacrificing meeting space?
answer: Build the photo backdrop into a primary wall surface so it doubles as branding and traffic pull, instead of adding freestanding features that consume circulation space.
Q5: What’s the biggest layout risk for hospitality-heavy 20×20 booths?
answer: Bottlenecks—so seating must be placed to keep entry lanes clear, preserve sightlines to the content wall, and avoid blocking staff movement during peak traffic.
