CASE STUDY
Cambria at KBIS
Trade show exhibit + Showroom Fabrication
- Las Vegas NV
- Branded Environments, Custom Fabrication, Trade Show Marketing
Executive Summary
Cambria’s interior design agency came to NPARALLEL + Atomic Props with a fully developed exhibit concept for the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show and a clear ask: bring it to life. Our team partnered with the agency to engineer and fabricate a high-design exhibit that put Cambria’s one-of-a-kind stone slabs at the center, built to perform on the show floor and evolve across future shows without starting over.
Business Challenge
The design was done. The agency had done their job well, and it showed. What they needed was a fabrication partner who could execute that vision without losing anything in translation.
The challenge was threefold: honor a sophisticated design developed by another creative team, build an environment that showcased Cambria’s unrepeatable slab products as the hero, and engineer the structure for long-term use so the exhibit could reconfigure and refresh year after year rather than require a full rebuild each show cycle.
Goals & Objectives
-
Execute a design-agency-led concept with fabrication quality that matched the vision
-
Position Cambria's unique stone slabs as the centerpiece of the exhibit experience
-
Use premium materials and structural systems that held up to the demands of the show floor
-
Engineer a modular system built for reconfiguration and refresh across future shows
-
Extend the Cambria brand into showroom environments with cohesive, adaptable fixtures
Our Solution
Seamless Design Hand-Off
From the moment the design files landed, our team worked in close partnership with the agency. Rather than reimagining the concept, we focused on executing it with the same level of craft and intention it was built with. The process from design hand-off to completed build was seamless, with no loss of quality in translation.
Material and Structural Engineering
We selected and engineered premium woods, metals, and structural systems to support the agency’s high-design aesthetic while meeting the practical demands of a live show floor. Every fabrication decision served the design intent: seams, transitions, and material choices all reinforced the cohesive experience Cambria needed to present.
Built to Last, Built to Flex
We engineered the exhibit for longevity from the start. The modular system allows Cambria to reconfigure and refresh the space across future shows, meaning the investment compounds rather than resets each season. The structure is designed to evolve alongside the brand.
Showroom Extensions
The partnership extended well beyond KBIS. We fabricated 3,000 custom A-frame granite displays for Cambria showrooms, each engineered to hold thousands of pounds of stone while giving their team the flexibility to use them across a variety of applications. We also designed and fabricated their seasonal showroom window installations, keeping the Cambria brand feeling current and cohesive at every customer touchpoint.
Results
This project demonstrates NPARALLEL + Atomic Props’ ability to step into an existing creative vision and execute it without losing a detail. From the first design hand-off to the final installation at KBIS, our team delivered fabrication quality that matched the sophistication of the concept and a modular system built to serve Cambria well beyond a single show. The partnership extended into their showrooms, proving that what starts on the show floor can become a consistent, adaptable brand presence across every environment.
