The multiple aisle forms of chair arrangement involve rows with aisles on either side. The number of rows depends on the size of the room and preference among other factors. There is another alternative for chair arrangement called continental. The chairs are presented as one bloc with large spaces between to allow easy passage. This form requires that emergency exit doors be placed strategically. If done with efficiency, it can increase the capacity of a room significantly. There is a lot to consider when designing auditorium theater seating.

The layout of the hall is dictated by the floor construction. It can go one of two ways. The first is curved. If the floor is constructed in a curved manner, the chairs will have to be arranged the same way. If the floor is straight then the chairs will be straight. This should be adhered to for the simple reason of patron comfort.

Before bringing in designers and professionals with all sorts of opinions, develop own vision of the room. Paint a mental picture. Does the mental picture feature practicality? Practicality is all about expected capacity and form-fitting into the function. The chairs are an important part of that picture. Do they satisfy the ergonomic aspects? What kind of chairs could be served by the budget but still offer the appropriate amount of luxury?

While practicality is great, one should think about incorporating a little bit of luxury. Hence the need for accessories. Chairs come with many of those. Everything from aisle lighting to cup holders. Cup holders can be on the back of the chairs or on the armrests. Other accessories can be swivel tables, electric outlets, reclining abilities and lumbar support. You can choose one, a few, or all of these for the comfort of the patrons.

During the performances that are most likely held in such establishments, the audience members like comfort first. They also like to be connected to the performance. The people will also appreciate unobstructed visibility. This means that the arrangement should be on a slope though only slightly.

Next on the list of considerations is seating codes. There are codes specifying about spacing and passageways. The same codes mention emergency protocols and emergency exits. The chairs have to be arranged in such a way that form of arrangement will not be deterrent to exit during emergencies. There should also not be a chance that some people will get trampled over. Adequate accessibility for disabled patrons is also a big stipulation in the codes.

There are dedicated professionals and designers at hand to help make all the right decisions. As a proprietor, it is possible to be n the dark about all the codes. These professionals will come armed with all the rules.

The customer is always right. The customer is king. These ideals ring true even in this instance. The patron is the reason for chasing comfort and consistent connection with the stage. The performance o stage cannot transport the audience when some are suffering neck cramps.
