Truss Lecterns
The truss lectern is actually one of the most popular lectern designs in the UK, often being donned by speakers across a range of high-profile events. The metal, or sometimes aluminium trussing makes it an extremely durable lectern, which also offers a more visually unique alternative to the more traditionally-panelled lecterns.
The exposed truss design not only adds strength but also gives the lectern a modern, industrial aesthetic - perfect for tech-forward or contemporary events. Shop the full range below, including metal, acrylic, and black truss lecterns, each handcrafted to last a lifetime:

Truss Lectern FAQs
What is the History Of the Truss Lectern?
Not to be confused with Liz Truss’s controversial jenga lectern, the truss lectern takes its inspiration from structural trusses used in architecture and event staging. The design emphasises strength through geometric patterns whilst keeping a lightweight, hollow structure. The truss lectern remains an extremely popular choice in event spaces and tech-forward environments due to its industrial aesthetic and ease of transportation.
Why Choose a Truss Lectern?
The reason for choosing a truss lectern over the typical panelled lectern is usually down to visual preference, and the tone you’d like to set for the event. The exposed metal framework gives a polished, high-tech, and industrial look, making it popular for modern or tech-oriented speakers.
The truss lectern design also features clean geometric patterns and clean lines, often a triangular or square lattice framework. This means that the overall design tends to be minimalist, avoiding excess decoration. This helps the audience focus on the speaker, rather than the lectern!
Can You Personalise a Truss Lectern?
Absolutely! When you order from Nova Lecterns, you’ll have the choice of adding your brand logo or graphic to your lectern of choice through premium printing and engraving.
