    Abstract: An inflatable wall generally comprises a wall panel including a pliable skin defining an inflatable enclosure and a hinge. Internal I-beams retain the front and rear of the wall panel as spaced vertical planes. The hinge has a vertical axis and is attached to the wall panel first end for supporting the wall in an upright position by hinged attachment to an adjacent wall. The enclosure includes a window box and a window for holding displays or the like. A raceway within the enclosure allows for passage of electrical wiring to displays within the windows.
