Multi-Purpose Meeting Spaces
Many organizations require rooms that serve multiple purposes throughout the week. Folding tables and nesting flip tables make it easy to reconfigure layouts for meetings, workshops, seminars, or presentations.
Room Size & Seating Capacity
The size of your conference room should always determine the size of your conference table—not the other way around. While it's tempting to maximize seating, an oversized table can make a room feel cramped and difficult to navigate. Leave enough space around the table so participants can comfortably pull out chairs, walk around the room, and access doors, presentation equipment, or storage without obstruction.
As a general guideline:
4 Person Capacity is best for small meeting rooms, huddle spaces, private offices
6 Person Capacity is best for department meetings, collaborative workspaces
8 Person Capacity is best for executive conference rooms, client meetings
