For our Q3 Social, Team Tecna headed to Hurlands Pickleball & Padel Club πŸ“

It was a great opportunity to get the team together after another busy quarter, to try out a sport new to most of the team (except for the England international player among us...)

While there were a few questionable shots and creative interpretations of the rules, we had a fanatastic time and enjoyed some very impressive shots and rallies.

A big thank you to the team for all the hard work in Q3, we've delivered some very special projects that we can be very proud of πŸ’œ

Q4 is already well underway, where we’ll close out the rest of the year with plenty of energy, and a few in-office sporting rivalries to be settled at a later time….

Push the Possible.

🎯 How do you launch the future of darts from one of the world's biggest consumer tech shows?

That's the question Winmau Darts brought to us for IFA Berlin 2026, and we're so glad they did.

IFA was the launchpad for Autodarts, a digital ecosystem that opens darts up to everyone. Whether you're picking up a dart for the very first time or chasing your next big score with Autodarts X, there's a place for you.

With a global launch, the stand had to reach far beyond the hall. Every photo and video taken on it would carry the story to people all over the world.

So we designed it to be both a stage and a set. With Winmau ambassador Gian van Veen, the Netherlands' No.1 ranked player, and other top professionals on the oche, we planned open space and clear sightlines for the crowds a famous face brings, while giving creators a backdrop worth filming all show long.

Inside, we built two very different experiences.

At the heart of the stand was an open, barrier-free zone where anyone could walk up, point their phone at the board and watch their throws scored instantly. No velvet rope, no hesitation, just the simple joy of having a go.

Beside it, a rope-entry space inspired by a professional's home practice room gave Autodarts X a more premium feel, with bespoke shelving displaying trophies and photography from the sport's biggest stages.

And the results show just how far a stand can travel. Autodarts hit number one on the App Store, passed two million downloads, earned international media coverage and picked up four awards, including T3's Best of IFA 2026.

Proof that when a stand is designed for both the people in the room and the millions watching from home, it becomes part of the whole story.

Thank you, Winmau, for trusting us with such a special launch πŸ™Œ

🎨 Your brand colours were chosen for a website, a business card as a representation of your brand.

Not necessarily for a hall full of competitors under bright lights. On the show floor, the same colours can say something completely different.

Here's how the big colour families tend to land once they leave the screen and come to life at an exhibition:

πŸ”΅ Blue says trust and reliability, but in a hall full of corporate blue, it can quietly fade into the crowd.
🟒 Green speaks to sustainability and growth, though under exhibition lighting the wrong shade can lose its polish.
⚫ Dark palettes feel premium and assured, and can turn your stand into the space people want to step into, but if poorly lit they can disappear.
πŸ”΄ Red and orange stop people in their tracks, as long as they're used with care.
βšͺ White feels clear and confident, and next to busy neighbours, that simplicity can be what gets you noticed.

So the question should be "which of our brand colours work in regard to how we want our visitors to feel?"

Alongside your brand guidelines, a great stand designer will sit down with you and ask:

πŸ‘‰ How do we want visitors to feel initially and once they are spending time on the stand?
πŸ‘‰ What does a typical show floor look like in your sector, how are you aiming to be different?
πŸ‘‰ What are your neighbours/competitors likely to bring to the show?

Sometimes the answer is to use your brand colours exactly as you always have. And sometimes it's to use them a little differently, so they work specifically for an exhibition hall or even for a specific show.

We've dug into the psychology of colour on the exhibition floor, from the main colour families to the power of contrast, and when it's worth bending your usual palette.

πŸ“¦ Now that's what we call a hanging banner!

A great stand doesn't just get noticed, it gets people talking, engaging and sticking around.

That was the brief for Amazon at eCommerce Expo 2026, and on a 6m x 6m footprint, we packed in plenty of reasons to stop.

Bold, illuminated 3D signage and a large LED screen drew people in from across the hall. Interactive demo stations, a digital Amazon parcel dropper game and a claw machine kept them there, exploring, laughing and having a go.

But a great stand needs room to breathe, too. High and low seating gave Amazon's team space to switch from quick hellos to deeper commercial conversations that turn into something more.

Then, because the best experiences are the ones you can learn from, we added anonymous visitor tracking. So Amazon left the show with real insight into footfall, dwell time and how people moved through the space.

We loved every minute of bringing this one to life, and there's plenty more where that came from πŸš€

Some summers fly by. This one sprinted 🎬

Our Q3 roundup is here, and it's a little love letter to the stands we designed and built over a seriously busy few months.

It's not every project (we'd need a much longer video for that!), but it shows what happens when both halves of Tecna come together: big, bold ideas on one side, meticulous planning and expert build on the other.

We stayed close to home for Farnborough International Airshow, The British Motor Show and Screwfix Live, then headed to Excel London for IAAPA Expo Europe and eCommerce Expo. Further afield, we took a global roadshow on tour and delivered a handful of international projects, proof that our team is just as at home on the other side of the world as it is down the road 🌍

To every client who trusted us with their brand this quarter, thank you πŸ™Œ

And to our brilliant design, project and build teams: you brought the same push the possible energy to the last build day as you did to the first, wherever in the world that happened to be. That's what makes this work.

Already thinking about 2027?

We'd love to hear what you've got planned, at home or abroad. Drop us a message or visit teamtecna.com, and let's start building something brilliant together πŸš€

πŸ† Four years in a row!

We're proud to maintain our ESSA Tier 5 Sustainability Accreditation for the fourth year running 🌱

When we first achieved Tier 5 in 2023, we became the first UK exhibition stand builder to reach the new highest level of recognition.

Four years later, and we’ve continued to meet the standard, by showing continued and measurable progress year on year.

We're committed to less waste, and more impact, for our clients, and that's what this maintained accreditation shows.

How do you design an exhibition stand for a company that creates some of the world’s most ambitious waterparks and aquatic destinations? 🌊

You make sure the space has plenty to dive into.

Water Technology, Inc. are world-leading aquatic design specialists, so we were incredibly proud to design and deliver their exhibition space at IAAPA Expo Europe at Excel London.

The stand put WTI’s incredible project portfolio front and centre, with large-scale visuals, service messaging and plenty of detail for visitors to explore; without losing the open, welcoming feel of the space.

And because not every exhibition conversation looks the same, neither did the meeting areas.

πŸ‘‹ A curved reception counter for the first hello
β˜• High tables for quick catch-ups
πŸ’¬ A comfortable lounge area for the conversations where the really exciting projects start taking shape

The layout showcased what WTI does, helped their team move naturally from introduction to opportunity and showed off their fun brand.

An incredible portfolio to Push the Possible on and a very fitting project for IAAPA 🌊🎒

Three renowned tool brands, sitting proudly under the Ox Group name for an action-packed weekend at Screwfix Live πŸ”§

We built this modular stand for OX Group, giving Tracer, OX and Bora their own lit bays in signature lime, blue and orange, so every brand kept its personality while sharing the same space.

Our team on-site enjoyed seeing the huge footfall on the stand, Ox's Shoot Your Trueshot challenge and caricature drawing kept the crowd growing from Friday morning right through to Sunday afternoon. We loved seeing the energy this brand space attracted at the show.

Thank you to the OX Group team for letting us bring us bring your brands to life!
