Discover the ideal size and layout for a control room. Learn how to optimize space, ergonomics, and operator workflow for maximum efficiency and comfort.
When it comes to building a control room, size and layout matter more than you think. Whether you’re designing a space for security surveillance, facilities management, or emergency response, the design will determine how your team communicates, interacts, and performs under pressure.
At Sage Control Room, we understand that control rooms aren’t just rooms filled with screens; they’re critical environments that require careful planning, ergonomic design, and flexibility to address future changes.
So, what is the ideal size and layout for a control room? Let’s explain.
What is the right size for a control room?
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. The ideal size for a control room depends on:
Number of operators
Type of operations
Equipment and workstation requirements
Basic principles of ideal design
1. Operator-centric design
A good control room design prioritizes the operators.
2. Zoning for Functional Performance
Divide your room into functional zones
3. Efficient workflow and distribution
4. Sight lines and visual access
Each operator should have a clear, unobstructed view of the video wall or displays.
