What Makes a Great ?
The benefits of a great are far and wide, but what exactly makes a great ? We’ve summarized this into four key sections:
- Layout
- Screen Sizes
- Versatility
- The Right Equipment
- and Mix Quality
Let’s take a look at these in more detail.
Layout
Harvard Business Review revealed the importance of a well-documented agenda for every you go into. Yet, did you know that the layout of your meetings is just as important as the schedule you’ll be following?
Different structures facilitate different kinds of conversation. You should attempt to match the spatial structure of your to the form of discussion you want to have.
- Want to generate ideas? A would be best for you.
- Want to deliver news to a large group of people? A training facility layout would work fantastically.
- Want to promote conversation? A boardroom table will ensure everyone can see everyone and will boost collaboration.
Depending on the purpose of your , the perfect layout for you will change.
Screen Sizes
There is nothing worse in a than being unable to follow what’s going on due to tiny screens. A room of employees squinting at a small monitor doesn’t exactly scream efficiency.
The perfect will include a large variety of screens around the room, making sure employees can see from any angle.
The Right Equipment
Now that everyone can see the screen properly, can they interact with the assembled group effectively? Tools such as all major video conferencing platforms are essential for conducting meetings internally and with . , integration, , and access to
and Mix Quality
Finally, every great needs a top-notch and mix equipment. Every employee should be seen and heard, no matter where they’re sitting in the room.
That’s why at Infassure we incorporate advanced technologies such as DSP (digital signal processing) mics into our spaces. These will isolate voices from external sounds and make communicating a breeze.
Types of Spaces
No two spaces are the same, with personalization letting businesses design their rooms to match specific purposes and intentions.
That said, there are four core structures that are commonly used as a base for designs.
s
Conference rooms are the typical that most companies will be familiar with. These are composed of a central rectangular table with multiple chairs alongside the longest sides. Sometimes a chair is placed at both the head and base of the table, which is filled by the most senior person in the .
This structure promotes discussion while also being a great shape for live presentations. As everyone can see everyone else at the table, conversation can flow naturally, allowing people to chime in with questions if they come up.
Over time, meetings that use conference rooms are getting smaller and more focused. A study between 2013 and 2017 saw a 66% decline in the amount of attendees.
This shift places more focus on collaboration in smaller groups, allowing tactile teams to tackle problems together.
Board Rooms
Board rooms typically consist of a U-shaped table. At the top of the U, you’ll traditionally find screens. This room format is best used by businesses that need to conduct lots of meetings over the internet.
Effective within a board room ensure that two teams or companies in disparate parts of the world can connect and communicate flawlessly.
The U-shaped structure ensures all attending members can be seen and heard during the call.
Training Facilities
In every business, there comes a time where training is needed. A training facility is set up like a classroom. There are screens and a desk at the front of the room, where the person conducting the training session can stand and present.
The rest of the room is filled with tables in rows, which face the front. Taking notes on the training session is made easy by this structure.
This format allows questions to be directed at the person running the session, increasing direct participation and helping employees maintain focus.
s
Finally, huddle rooms are spaces specifically designed for collaboration. Directly suggested by ‘huddle’, they are typically smaller rooms with one central circular table around which employees gather. With this shape, everyone will be in close physical proximity, allowing conversation to flow naturally.
If you’re looking to generate ideas, huddle rooms are the perfect tool your business should have in its arsenal.
Equipment for the Job
Let’s take a look at some of the equipment that the best and rooms will include.
Smart Whiteboards
Smart whiteboards allow integration between physical movements, like drawing, and digital technologies. They will allow users to take notes, create diagrams, and annotate on the fly.
These boost productivity and allow users to follow presentations along with ease.
Screens

You should upgrade your business with the most up-to-date tools. Screens are a huge part of this, making sure you can see and directly communicate with employees that aren’t physically in the room.
s and Speakers
Just like in the wider workspace, you want to make sure everyone has a voice.
Seamless will ensure everyone can speak freely and hear every word that goes on in the and speaker incorporation .
Touch-Screen Panels
The ability to swipe through graphs, presentations, programs, and more will allow your teams to actively participate in meetings. Long gone are the days of printing off page after page of notes.
