The ROGERS Co., a Mentor, OH-based exhibit firm, recently unveiled a futuristic-looking 20’ x 20’ custom island display for LuxPath Networks at the National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference. LuxPath Networks required a leading-edge design to position it as a major player in the telecommunications market. Inspired by the LuxPath Networks logo, ROGERS designed a 3-Dimensional curved structure with elements that reflected fiber optic communications. Saber-tooth columns of wood-core and swirled metal finish served as the base, provided a high-tech industrial look and supported a unique ID header. Made of stretch fabric, the header was shaped to symbolically show the entanglement of fiberoptic networks and hubs. ROGERS collaborated with Stenger Creative on producing colorful graphic images depicting fiber optic cables, networks and brand equipment. A spectrum of colors traveled through structure supports symbolic of the rapid flow of information and data.
