Ideas for Lobby Exhibits in a Secure Space

Friday, August 17th, 2012

Lobby displays serve as a visitor’s first impression for your organization. Uniquely designed and executed lobby displays can inform, direct, and impress your visitors at first glance.

Adler Display recently installed a lobby exhibit for the Harford County Sheriff. There are several considerations to make when working in a high traffic, high profile, secure space such as this, including:

  1. We had to make sure this display was vandal proof/resistant - since it was being installed in the precinct lobby they didn’t want anyone to be able to hide behind any part of it for security – or be able to pick or vandalize any part of the graphics while they were waiting in the lobby.
  2. It also needed to be easily update-able so we sandwiched the copy between two pieces of glass on a clear piece of film that can easily be removed and updated.
  3. Another big concern was legibility 24 hours a day – effected by sunlight during the day from all the windows and interior lighting at night and during the day. The area was to be used for meetings as well as photo shoots and television camera interviews, so choosing materials was critical and doing test samples was important.  What color the copy should be against the background image so that it was legible in any lighting situation, use of non-glare products etc.  The client wanted black or dark blue copy in front of a navy blue based background image – it wasn’t legible at all – we had to come up with other options.

In the end, the final product was everything the client had hoped for and more!

Adler Display has been creating custom lobby displays, like the one above, for companies for more than 60 years. Our experience and on-site fabrication shop give us the edge in making your lobby display attractive and functional.

Frontier Town and Adler Display, Two Maryland Staples

Monday, April 30th, 2012

Originally designed by Howard Adler in the late 1950’s, Frontier Town in Ocean City, Maryland is one of the last remaining Western theme parks in the United States. Frontier Town was the brain child of Bill Patton and Bill Pacey, Maryland business owners and entrepreneurs who envisioned Ocean City as a popular family destination, well before it became one.

To bring this dream to life, those involved hired Howard Adler and Adler Display to design and create the park and its themed displays. This included:

  • The creation of dozens of larger-than-life animals and characters.
  • The creation of the park centerpiece, a cowboy riding high on his trusty stallion, placed at the main entrance. This display remains in its orginal place to this day, serving as a nostalgic reminder of the park’s rich history.

“I remember when my dad used to take us there (Frontier Town),” said Howard’s son, Ron Adler, the current owner of Adler Display. “Today it’s just like I remember, but it seemed so much bigger when I was little.”

"C'mon down folks"... to our replica western town circa 1860 situated alongside of Frontier Town Campground and only 5 minutes from Ocean City, Maryland. Git yerself ready for a trip back into America's Wild West with all its purdy nostalgia and tons of colorful characters! Return with us to them days of yesteryear and live a day in the life of a rootin' tootin' cowboy, an earth-poundin' Indian Chief or a high steppin' Can Can gal. Browse 'bout the quaint western gift shops, chow down in the town's eateries or jus' rest yer doggies a spell and let the youngins romp 'round while you lose yerself in the thick atmosphere of the Ol' West. http://www.frontiertown.com/western-theme-park/

We at Adler Display are proud to have been a part of the park’s creation and thank those who have taken such good care of our original displays over these past 50 years!

“Every time I visit, I am happy to see that much of my dad’s work is still being enjoyed,” said Ron Adler.

How to get the most from the Trade Show Experience

Friday, April 27th, 2012

To get the most out of your Trade Show Experience, you will need three things.

  1. A plan
  2. A plan
  3. A plan

No successful trade show vendor has ever “winged it.” Luckily, we at Adler Display have several tips on trade show planning for success, from getting your booth there to booth staffing to the return trip home.

Booth Set Up

Be sure to allow yourself plenty of time to set up, because you may find that you are missing an item or two or that a light bulb has burned out. And you need time to make any unexpected changes / repairs.

Booth Staffing

A common mistake is over-staffing your booth. So try to stick with the following formula:

2 booth staffers for the first 10′ of booth space + 1 staffer for each additional 10′ of space. That equation would work like this:

  • 10×10 space = 2 staff people
  • 10×20 space = 3 staff people
  • 20×20 space = 4 staff people
  • 20×30 space = 5 staff people

Attracting People to your Booth – Trade Show Displays from Adler Display

No matter what type of trade show display you choose, one of our Adler Display trade show display project managers will make sure it’s done on time and on budget. From quick and easy banner stands to large and complex custom island displays, Adler Display has the trade show display staff and experience to create your ideal trade show display. Adler Display will work with you to design and fabricate a trade show display that meets your marketing and budget needs.

Generating Leads

You attend trade shows for one reason, to generate leads and thus business. The key to obtaining leads that can be turned into sales calls (and subsequently sales) starts with a good Lead Retrieval System. Most trade shows make good lead retrieval systems available to exhibitors at a very reasonable rate. These systems generally scan an attendee’s badge or card, log the information into a database, and print a hard copy. What they do not do, however, is electronically log additional information that your booth staff may gain in a conversation.

A good way to make the electronic information valuable is to review the hard copy printout while your visitor is in the booth, and use it to make any notes about your conversation that will be helpful in the follow-up phase. Be sure to write legibly…back at the office you may not remember your conversation!

Good Luck!

Tips for Creating Winning Trade Show Displays

Friday, April 13th, 2012

When it comes to trade show displays, your options are nearly endless. And new display products are being introduced almost constantly, making it tough to narrow down what display elements are essential for your trade show display.

Luckily for you, we at Adler Display have provided our Top 6 Display Design Tips to get you started.

  1. Communicate: Once you have determined you target audience, you need to determine how to effectively communicate to that audience.
  2. Simplify: Many exhibitors try to cram too much information onto their trade show displays. Too many graphics, too many messages, or just too much “stuff” in general can be overwhelming and confusing to booth visitors. Try to keep visuals, messages and literature to a minimum. This will help visitors understand what you do quickly, which will help ensure that they remember you back at the office.
  3. High Quality Graphics: Using a stock photo can be a bad idea. After all, nothing can be more disheartening to a trade show exhibitor than seeing a competitor using the same imaging in their booth! So try to use only high quality, unique images.
  4. Signage to Attract and Direct: Not only can good signage capture the attention of passers by, but it can be used to help direct booth visitors to particular areas of interest as well.
  5. Stand Out: How do you attract people to your booth? Your trade show display, that’s how! Your display design should be well laid out, have a clear message, and should attract show goers attention from a distance.
  6. Trust Adler Display: As always, the pro’s at Adler Display are here to help with all of your display needs. We offer a wide range of trade show displays from banner stands and tabletop displays to ultra-large 40×60 displays and larger. No matter what type of trade show display you choose, our trade show display project managers will make sure it’s done on time and on budget. From quick and easy banner stands to large and complex custom island displays, Adler Display has the trade show display staff and experience to create your ideal trade show display. Adler Display will work with you to design and fabricate a trade show display that meets your marketing and budget needs.

Adler Display Designs Mount St. Mary’s University Display

Thursday, March 15th, 2012

Mount St. Mary’s University approached Adler Display about creating an engaging gallery of eight wood-framed graphic panels within the Miller Senate Building. The panels had to communicate the four pillars of the university — faith, discovery, leadership and community – while visually conveying the look and feel of the Mount within the confines of the Miller Senate Building’s own historic appearance.

The challenge was not an easy one, but, of course, Adler Display was up to the challenge!

In order to visually bridge the gap between the Senate building’s black and white gallery and the rich woods and colors of the Mount St. Mary’s natural palette, Adler Display’s design team added contemporary accents of aluminum and acrylic to the displays. Furthermore, to protect the integrity of the public space, Adler fabricated wall panels around the existing ceiling track, leaving the wall surfaces intact.

The experts at Adler Display understand the importance of our country’s historic buildings. With over 30 years experience in creating historic building displays, you can be assured that we will respect the integrity and materiality of your historic building. We identify, respect and work within the delicate fabric of historic buildings and we can help you bring the history of a historic building to life, educate guests and work to bring art, artifacts, and information to the forefront. The superior design team at Adler Display can create stunning and impactful historic building displays for you no matter what your unique challenges may be.

Adler Display has created informational and inspiring historic building displays for a variety of properties listed on The National Register for Historic Preservation.

Adler Designs Visually Pleasing Displays for GBMC Sunflower Campaign

Friday, March 2nd, 2012

In 2010, Adler Display was commissioned to design innovative pop-up displays and banner stands for Greater Baltimore Medical Center’s Sunflower Campaign, which highlights inspirational, real-life stories of its employees. GBMC – which employs more than 3,500 people in clinical and non-clinical areas – includes Greater Baltimore Medical Center, Central Maryland’s leading community hospital; Gilchrist Hospice Care, which provides comfort and care to patients with life-limiting illnesses; and the GBMC Foundation, which supports the GBMC mission by managing fundraising efforts.

Adler Display was able to showcase the mission of GBMC and honor its extraordinary healthcare providers.
