Everything about designing an auditorium

Auditoriums are meant for presentations, conferences, training sessions, and other corporate or educational events. They can typically obtain between 20 to 100 people (while larger spaces facilitating more than that are considered a hall or stadium).

When designing an auditorium, it's essential to consider factors such as accessibility, comfort, and compliance with building codes and regulations - that vary according to local guidelines. Make sure to look into those or consult with an expert to get your auditorium layout right!
