QUINCY, MA, ISSUED JULY 7, 2011…Hill & Partners, Inc., a full-service tradeshow exhibit design firm, provided long-time client GTECH Corporation with a prominent 14mx6.43m custom exhibit that captured the attention of more than 600 visitors from throughout Europe attending the June 5-9 Northern Light, European Lottery Congress 2011 show held at the Marina Congress Center along the picturesque Scandic Marina. in Helsinki, Finland

The creative team at Hill & Partners designed and managed a striking open lay-out booth featuring three attractive “pods” that functioned as double-sided workstations to display products and provide demos of the GTECH product line at work.  The circular pods contained a monitor on each side allowing for easy viewing; the colorful workstations were punctuated by glowing orange fabric bases and circular white canopy toppers under-lit by a vibrant blue hue.  The spherical pods and multi-colored accents worked in harmony with the entire booth’s color scheme to stay true to GTECH’s logo and brand.

The booth contained a total of 12 monitors, four of which lined the booth’s backwall, mounted to a silver band that spanned the entire back portion of the exhibit.  The eye-catching band was back-lit to create an increased dimensional look and feel.

In addition to the trio of workstations and a dozen monitors, the technology-driven booth showcased a lottery ticket vending machine, two gaming machines, and a workstation that displayed four table top gaming kiosks.

Visitors to the GTECH booth were provided a sophisticated, yet comfortable seating area, complete with a refreshment station.  A white canopy, accented by an appealing circular yellow light fixture with a trio of bulbs descending in graduated lengths, gave the sitting area an open and unconfined atmosphere while still allowing for the feel of a separate space away from the demo area.

The GTECH exhibit enjoyed a prime location close to a balcony overlooking the Scandic Marina, allowing visitors to the popular booth full advantage of Helsinki’s magnificent weather and water views.
