Light vs. Standard vs. PRO Design

Understand the main difference between our design packages.

Written by Kristina Belenova

When you order floor plan creation by ExpoFP, our team provides three design options: Light, Standard, and PRO. Light Design is intended for smaller events with up to 200 booths and includes a professionally built interactive floor plan, but does not include booth reservation or sponsorship features. Standard Design is typically sufficient for most organizers, while larger or more complex events may require PRO Design, which includes additional customization. If you're unsure which package is right for your event, our team will gladly review your project and recommend the right option.

Design Packages include digital wayfinding, GPS, kiosk mode, full layout editing, custom branded colors and fonts, area map, and "You Are Here" QR codes. Some of the differences between Light, Standard, and PRO Design are below.

Event size

  • Light Design: only one building or level (up to 200 booths)

  • Standard Design: up to three buildings and/or levels (up to 1000 booths)

  • Pro Design: unlimited number of buildings and levels (unlimeted booths)

Extra buildings

An additional building is defined as any of the following:

  • Completely separate structures — fully detached buildings requiring separate drawing, placement, and scaling.

  • Sections with different orientation — connected areas that must be arranged in a layout orientation different from the main structure and cannot be represented as a single, unified layout.

  • Connected buildings — structures linked by tunnels, bridges, or hallways that introduce additional design complexity.

Buildings are not counted more than once, even if they appear across multiple levels.

Extra levels

An additional level is defined when an extra layer must be represented in the floor plan's front view, including separate scaling, placement, or labeling to reflect the structure's multi-level layout.

Note that even if multilevel buttons are not used but multiple floors are shown on a single layer, it will still count as an additional level based on the building's structure.

Additional locations on the area map

  • Light Design: the area map is visible, but locations outside the venue are not clickable.

  • Standard Design: a few clickable and wayfindable locations

  • PRO Design: a detailed map for outdoor events

Irregular-shaped (non-rectangular or rotated) booths

  • Light & Standard Design: less than 30% of your booths can be non-standard

  • PRO Design: no limit to the number of non-standard booths

Event space and venue

Extra time is necessary to include unused spaces, inner walls, emergency exits, or custom-drawn staircases and seats.

Unused spaces are generally not included in floor plans. They are not included in Light Design, but can be included as part of PRO Design.

  • Light Design: unused spaces and additional zones or pavilions are not included

  • Standard Design: standard venue areas are included, but unused spaces are generally not included

  • PRO Design: unused spaces and additional venue details can be included

Custom-drawn icons, shapes or ornaments

If you have custom icons and logos, our team can add them as part of Standard Design. However, we can also create stylized icons and shapes such as flowers, patterns, and expo-themed objects as part of PRO Design.

  • Light Design: only the event logo is added; additional logos, custom outdoor icons, zones, and pavilions are not included

  • Standard Design: your custom icons and logos can be added

  • PRO Design: we can also create stylized icons and shapes such as flowers, patterns, and expo-themed objects
