Available Furniture
Below is a table with the available furniture you can request. So see how they look in real life, check out the photos of the 2010 project booths at [[1]].
| Item Name | Catalog Description | Photos | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chair | 
| ||
| Small Table | 
| 
| |
| Large Table | 
| 
| |
| Small Round Table | 
|  
| Available in black and white. In the previous years, we never specified the color, so it was random which color we got. |
| Tall Round Table ("Bar table") | 
| ||
| Bar Chair | 
| 
| Available in black and white. In the previous years, we never specified the color, so it was random which color we got. |
| Infopoint |  
| ||
| Glass Showcase (Vitrine) | 
|  
| Same height as infopoint. Basically a sideboard with a glass showcase on top. Good for displaying hardware, circuit boards, mobile phones etc. |
| Sideboard | 
|  
| The booth builder told us that he had to discard most sideboards because they were too worn. So we don't know how many sideboards he has left and how they look exactly. |
| Counter-Sideboard | 
| Never have seen this "live" | |
| Small Counter | 
| May be a good alternative if you mainly want to sell stuff. | |
| Large Counter | 
| 
| May be a good alternative if you mainly want to sell stuff. |
| Prospektständer klein | 
| 
| |
| Prospektständer gross | 
| 
| |
| Sofa | 
| Since each wall element is 1m long, you can see in the photo that the sofa is pretty small (W122/D60/H78). Seats 2 people. |
Carpet and Flat Beam System
After the rather bland light grey carpets we had in 2010, we decided to go for blue carpets for all project booths in 2011. Here is a photo of a booth with blue carpet (Mozilla, 2010):
If the budget allows, we might switch to the more fancy flat beam system this year. Since this might make it difficult to have all project names up on the beam system, we might print the names on the infopoints. But this depends on if there is any budget left after fulfilling all furniture requests.
The flat beam system may also make it difficult to affix the projector boards ("Beamerhalterung").
A word about costs and budget
You all applied and were accepted to exhibit your projects at this year's LinuxTag exhibition. We provide you with a booth, including carpet, wall elements, and furniture. This means we pay for this, not you.
We have a limited budget for the booth furniture, so we need to use it wisely. This year, we have a lot of projects and a lot of booth space. So we ask you to only request furniture that you really need and that you will use it appropriately.
Infopoints
We love the Infopoints because they are great for presenting software on a screen or laptop to the visitors. They have an optimal height, storage space, and look good. But they are really expensive!
Some approximate numbers showing how much an infopoint costs in relation to other furniture:
1 Infopoint
= 20 chairs
= 12 tables
= 15 barstools
= 3 sideboards
= 2 glass showcases
= 2 sofas
= 2 small counters/info bar
= 1 large counter/reception bar + 1 sideboard
So if you request an infopoint, please use it as it is intended to demo your software. If you don't really need an infopoint, request a table, or one of the counters
What we don't want to see this year is projects using the infopoints just for flyers or as a sales counter!
Storage Space
We can add small storage rooms to your booth. These storage rooms are 1sqm in size, sometimes 2sqm. So they take away space from your booth. The door of this storage room alone is more expensive than one sideboard. If you only need this storage space to store the jackets and backpacks of your team members, please consider using the cloakroom ("Garderobe") in the entrance area of hall 7. The usage of the cloakroom is free of charge for project members (show your project badge).
