Lounge Seating — Expert Answer
Should I choose armed or armless lounge seating for a waiting area?
Armed chairs provide resting positions for arms and make it easier to rise from the seat — preferred for most waiting room applications and accessibility. Armless units allow you to pack more seats into a bench or modular configuration and can seat larger users more comfortably. A typical waiting room strategy: armed chairs on the ends of a modular run, armless sections in the middle. Ensure at least one armed seat per cluster for accessibility.
