Say goodbye to the traditional, oversized conference room! Discover how to a dynamic conference room that works for every meeting and every personality.
Is your large conference room just not cutting it anymore? We get it. A massive table with chairs might not be the right fit for every meeting. Whether it’s a two-person discussion or a client interview, a big, empty room can feel cold and intimidating.
But imagine a space that’s flexible, accommodating both large groups and smaller, more intimate gatherings. Here’s how you can transform your conference room into something more dynamic in nature.
Designated Spaces
Create different areas within the same room to cater to various needs. Some participants like to stand during meetings while others do their best thinking in a laid-back lounge chair. Providing different postures creates a more dynamic space.
Different Elevations
Incorporate plush chairs with side tables, soft couches with coffee tables, high-top tables with bar stools, and landing tables at the back. The goal is to design for different postures while also giving everyone an easy line of sight to the room’s technology.
Versatile Setup
This arrangement ensures everyone’s comfort, from the person who needs to pace to those who prefer a cozy corner. Using furniture that is easily moved to accommodate for different group activities is a must.
Hybrid Technology
Finally, no space is complete without technology that is made for the hybrid environment. Camera bars have greatly improved to include features like stitching. Stitching is where the camera zooms in on each participant, no matter where they are in the room, and creates an equal sized box for them on the screen of the remote participant. This way, someone sitting at the back of the room, looks the same to the remote participant as someone sitting in the front. This encourages conversation and keeps everyone involved.
Making sure your screen or screens are large enough for the space is also important. With participants all over the room, you need to make sure they can easily see and share content. This could mean installing screens at the front and sides of the room depending on how large of a space you have.
Creating a dynamic conference room means that you can have a big meeting and still accommodate everyone’s needs and personality types. By combining a good variety of furniture and using hybrid technology your space will be a sought-after amenity that will help your team be successful for years to come.
