Conference Tables — Expert Answer

How do I calculate the right room size for a conference table?

The general formula: table length + 5 feet per end (for seating and walk-around) and table width + 4 feet per side (for chairs + walking). So a 96" long x 42" wide table needs roughly 18' long x 12' wide room. For rooms also used for standing presentations, add another 3–4 feet at the presentation end.
