Theatre seating is one of the most versatile types of seating, and it can be found in a huge variety of venues. As a custom designed theatre seating manufacturer in California, we’ve installed our theatre seats in churches and worship centers, movie theaters, university and college lecture halls, and even in concert arenas. The theatre style seats offer a whole host of benefits for both audience members as well as performers on stage, which is why most venues now opt for this style over flat level seating.
Interestingly enough, theater style seating is as ancient as the Greek Empire! Starting in the mid-400s BC, Greek theaters started using the natural incline of hillsides to provide seating for patrons. The incline gave the audience a clear view of the performance, and the angle brought even the furthest seats closer to the action.
Our modern theater style seating has simply enhanced the ancient ideas. The basic principles still apply today, and it’s hard to beat the brilliance of simple, natural design. Whether you’re installing pews, benches, or cushy individual seats, the progressive rise from the front to the back allows excellent sight lines and a superior experience for each member of the audience.
Of course, we’ve capitalized on modern science and engineering to provide a better experience than ever. The science of sightlines, in particular, has progressed dramatically. We’re able to plan out an entire theater so that each seat has a perfect view of the stage or screen, completely free of obstructions.
The same goes for modern acoustics. Because the seats are arranged in a bowl shape, the sound is contained within the range of the audience, providing each guest with the same excellent sound quality.
As a leading custom designed theatre seating manufacturer in California, we offer our vast experience in designing for the best sightlines, acoustics and comfort possible in your venue. We’d love to work with you on your next project – whether you’re designing a fancy home theater for a few friends or a huge public venue for hundreds.
