Rejuran Booth
A simple and elegant yet massively versatile booth. The Rejuran trade show booth can be set up as a 20x20, 10,20 or 10x30 using the same components. It features a large LED wall, enclosed display pedestals and colored lighting throughout to reinforce the company's branding.

Hal Leonard 40×50 Booth
One of the biggest names in music publishing Hal Leonard is a standard fixture at the NAMM music show. This 40x50 booth features 5 meeting rooms, a small stage back lit fabric branding and ample room to display their product. Additional edge lit acrylic signage gives it a strong modern vibe.

Getty: Lumia
This exhibit of illuminated manuscripts and various other artifacts for The J. Paul Getty Museum involved many custom pedestals and wall fixtures. All were constructed of Maple and Poplar and finish painted to exacting standards. The last slide in this set is a bonus pic from a different Getty exhibit, but the fact that they hung a priceless Van Goph masterpiece on one of our display walls is something that we just had to brag about.

Godzilla’s Dental Reconstruction
Every so often a "way outside the box" project comes along. In this case it was a 6 ft tall resin cast Godzilla statue that had several of his teeth broken off during shipping. Our approach to the repair was to drill holes in the base of the broken teeth and epoxy in some metal pins. This gave us a substrate on which we could sculpt new teeth out if a hard putty. They where then hand painted with acrylic paints to match the existing teeth and finished off with a glossy clear coat to give it that wet, slobbery effect.

Oregon Fruit 10×20
This booth is a hybrid of a traditional build and lightweight fabric. Incorporating the large fabric graphics reduces a lot of the physical structure giving the benefits of a fabric booth without looking so much like one. Additionally, we constructed it in a way that the client can assemble it by themselves without the use of any tools.

Solstice Medicine 10×30
The design of this booth is meant to look like an old Chinese spice shop. No laminate here, everything is hand finished, stained woodwork. Hand stenciled gold lettering and brass Chinese hardware make for a rustic and interesting overall effect.

Tropical Acai 10×10 Booth
At CMA, we pride ourselves on being able to do a lot with a little. This light weight 10x10 booth is a combination of aluminum extrusion SEG frames with wood and laminate additions to give it a truly custom look. Usually deployed in the back of the convention hall, on the row that is mostly off the shelf pop-ups and draped folding tables, this booth makes a massive impact without a massive cost.

Model Train Display Case
This display case was made to show retired model trains that where removed from a larger exhibit at the La Habra Childrens museum. It is made from solid wod with carved dimensional lettering in maple.

The Gundam Base
A 40x50 "pop-up" store for San Diego Comicon in the style of the Gundam store in Tokyo, Japan. To achieve the look in a trade show setting, traditional wall panels were clad with custom cut PVC "armor" panels. The cladding is composed of over 120 uniquely shaped panels, each with blue LED perimeter lighting. Custom shelving and model displays on the inside complete this immersive shopping experience.

Cordoba / Guild Guitar Racks
The client wanted to design a display rack that could be used at trade shows, but could also be sold to customers for use in retail environments. These racks are modular and can break down fully to be flat packed for shipping. Dimensional branding elevates the racks to a high end display.

Friendly Farm
This was a renovation to a room at the La Habra Childrens Museum. The exhibit is for younger children and is very "play" oriented so everything needed to be "touchable". The design includes a 1920's style farmhouse along with a barn, tool shed, garden areas and an orchard with pickable fruit and ovacados.

Getty Research Institute: E.A.T.
Experiments in Art and Technology. This exhibit installation was comprised of 2x2 welded steel walls that reached from floor to ceiling. Graphics, exhibits and media were placed in sections through out to appear as floating in an industrial environment.

Brewista 20×20 Modular Booth
A 20x20 booth in the style of a coffee shop, the modular design allows for the components of this booth to be used as a 20x20, 10x10, 10x20 or 10x30. The tower has giant TVs on all 4 sides as well as back lit fabric graphics.

Tap Handles 8ft Display Wall
A true superstar on every show floor, this custom-built Tap handles booth highlights their product and brand unlike any of their competitors!
The structure is made of cold-rolled powder-coated steel. To add to the craftsmanship, their cabinets are made of hand-picked, solid white Birchwood. Tap Handles booth radiates a clean and sharp authentic-use environment.

PRS Display Case
A special build for PRS' 35th anniversary, this case holds two guitars hanging on a rotating display. Internal lighting and lit graohics elevate the presentation to the level of art.

T-Rex Donation Box
A fun little project we did for the La Habra Childrens Museum. The head of the dinosaur sits atop an acrylic box and tips back so that the donations can be "fed" to it. The teeth are made of foam for safety and the details are hand painted.

Awake 10×20 Booth
This 10x20 inline booth features a unique curved back wall with a dimensional tree cutout. The entire booth is wrapped with Van Goph inspired graphics.

RYL 20×20 Booth
There were a couple of interesting challenges for this 20x20 booth build. The event was out doors in an uneven parking lot. To compensate, the booth is built on a raised floor deck and covered entirely with shade fabric. The result is an inviting space with sun protection while still maintaining that breezy outdoor vibe.
