The Stand Design Award winners for 2024

Smallest Stands (below 20sqm) 

Won by: Magnifi, Hall 5, stand H52
This is an immersive space, with unusually clear messaging on the advantages of AI. The stand features artificial grass and balls held in a net above the stand which creates positive tension.  With a small stand, they’ve achieved as much, if not more, than they might have done with a larger space.

Mid-Sized Stands (up to 100sqm)

Won by: Phoenix7, Hall 1, stand C61
Phoenix7 have achieved a living room style for their stand, executing it to a tee with stylistically correct sofas, cupboards, doors, wallpaper and even a dado rail. The fire is actually a large TV showing the demo and the sofas around the fire have been re-used for 10 years.

Larger Stands (over 100sqm) 

Won by: Omni Remotes and Zappware , Hall1, Stand A.81
The space has different styles in different areas, yet feels cohesive and is in line with the company’s different offerings. The display is clean and well thought out, with freedom and time to browse. The addition of arcade and pinball machines managed to work with the informal, but business- like atmosphere.

Innovation

Won by: BT, Outside, A24

The BT stand was warm and welcoming. A Scalextric model car track at the centre draws people in, at the heart of a demo that flows throughout the stand - each space attributed to each product. Being outside, there’s cover from the rain if the weather turns.
