What our clients say

“The Colab Design team created our stand at the recent Australian Fitness Expo and produced a beautiful and functional stand that was a real show-stopper. The quality and service was amazing.”

— Daniel Ross

“Fantastic Service. I can’t fault the team at Colab Design. From the initial quoting stage through to completion their attention to detail was spot on. They delivered a great concept and then ensured that it was deliverable, within budget. Their level of service was what I have been looking for; to find any problems and rectify them before they became an issue. Will definitely work with them again.”

You’ve got questions? We’ve got answers.

A lot goes into designing and building a custom exhibition stand. Here are answers to some of the most common questions we get asked. Don’t see your question here? Get in touch today:

How long will the project take from design to installation?

For exhibition booths, you can expect fast delivery and short lead times. Most of our projects take four to six weeks, from briefing to delivery. For bespoke tradeshow stands, you can expect the project to take eight to twelve weeks, depending on the complexity of build construction.

Our standard operating procedures for exhibitions also translate into speed and efficiency in retail and office interior fit outs, which will give you faster and more deliverable expectations. We can deliver in record time, which may take six to eight months for other interior shop fit out companies to achieve.

What exhibition centres do you work with?

We’ve worked with clients exhibiting at many venues, in particular at ICC SydneySydney Showground, Carriageworks, Sydney Masonic Centre, MCEC, Melbourne Showgrounds, GCEC, Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre and premium locales such as Hilton Sydney. No matter the size or scale of your exhibition project, we can help you.

What is your pricing structure?

Our initial meeting includes a free strategy plan and discussion about your vision for the project. Our designer will likely plan and sketch freehand to gauge what you are looking for. After this, if you want to engage more, we can proceed to quotation, stage 1 designs and final design, production quote and installation. Just tell us what you’re after, and we’ll work with you to get you there.
