Proper placement of different key elements (e.g., flats, furniture, doors, windows, etc.).
A centre line and sightlines to ensure everyone in the audience can see your design.
The first row of the auditorium consisting of 17 seats, each 80cm wide (2cm to scale),
making the entire row 13,6m wide (34cm to scale), Place the row 2m (5cm to scale) from

1. The A3-sized paper is used to draw the ground plan.
2. The proscenium arch is represented by a rectangle that is 12 meters wide and 8 meters deep.
3. The scale used is 1:40, meaning that 1 centimeter on the paper represents 40 centimeters in real life.
4. Accurate measurements are shown on the ground plan.
5. Key elements such as flats (walls), furniture, doors, and windows are properly placed within the bedroom set.
6. A center line is drawn to mark the exact middle of the stage, and sightlines are indicated to ensure everyone in the audience can see the design.
7. The first row of the auditorium is shown, consisting of 17 seats. Each seat is 80 centimeters wide in real life, so it is represented by a symbol on the ground plan.
8. The entire row of seats is 13.6 meters wide, and it is placed 2 meters from the proscenium arch, as specified.
9. A separate A4-sized page is included, which serves as a key-list explaining the symbols used in the ground plan. This key-list helps the audience understand the layout of the bedroom set.
Overall, this ground plan provides an accurate and scaled representation of the dream bedroom set for a proscenium arch theater, ensuring that all key elements and measurements are included.
