Capacity: 12

Design considerations:

  • Reduce density by removing seating, changing to individual tables and decluttering accessories and shared storage.
  • Define one-way circulation patterns for clear access to each seat and avoid face-to-face interactions.
  • Consider adding screens to limit exposure and provide psychological comfort.
  • Add signage, sanitation stations and develop staggered schedules to reinforce behaviors.
