Layout Tips for Stunning Lounge Areas
1. Create Conversation Zones
Group seating so guests naturally face each other.
2. Use Multiple Clusters
Large venues benefit from 2–4 lounges placed strategically by bars, dance floors, or outdoor areas.
3. Add Warm Lighting
String lights, candles, lanterns, and LED towers change everything.
4. Mix Furniture Styles
Contrast creates personality: velvet + leather, rustic + modern, neutrals + gold.

Keep 3–4 feet of walking space around the lounge perimeter.
