From Event Design To Reality
LIV Technical’s design team immediately follows the event discovery phase to visualize the event. During this stage, our event production company will work to ensure that the event design meets both the theme of the occasion and specific event goals. This entails anything from innovative ways to create the event identity, decorate live event spaces, select event attire, branding signage, and more.
Within an event location, decorations and other aspects of the event may be reused or replaced with existing materials or equipment to lower the cost. This procedure includes the production of event schedules, floor plans, and other production papers.
