Ban Dašković conference hall

60
70m2

Need a meeting space where participants focus completely on content without outside distractions? Ban Dašković conference hall offers 70 m² with professional audio-visual equipment in a windowless environment designed for presentations that demand full attention.

Optimal Size for Focused Groups

At 70 m², Ban Dašković accommodates 30-50 people comfortably. It's large enough for significant team meetings or training sessions, yet intimate enough that everyone stays engaged. The size works particularly well when your content requires sustained attention.

Rectangular Layout

The dimensions of 5.38m - 6.77m x 10.53m create a rectangular space that naturally orients toward one end. This shape works well for theater-style presentations, classroom training, or boardroom discussions where focus directs forward.

Professional Audio-Visual Setup

Complete Sound System

The built-in sound system ensures every participant hears presentations clearly. When addressing 30-50 people, professional audio makes the difference between everyone understanding or half the room missing key points.

Multiple Display Options

Both projection screens and plasma TVs provide flexible display capabilities. Show main content on screens while using plasma displays for agendas, supporting materials, or branding. Multiple viewing options ensure visibility from all seats.

Sophisticated Lighting Control

Adjustable lighting supports various activities throughout your event. Bright for active discussions, dimmed for focused presentations, or customized for specific needs. Professional lighting control enhances both visibility and atmosphere.

The Windowless Advantage

Zero External Distractions

With no windows, participants can't get distracted by outside activity, weather, or passersby. When your presentation, training, or discussion requires complete focus, eliminating visual distractions helps maintain attention.

Perfect for Presentations

Windowless rooms excel for content heavy on visual elements. No sunlight competes with your screens, no glare washes out displays, and lighting remains completely consistent. Your slides, videos, and presentations display optimally without environmental interference.

Climate Control Precision

Without windows affecting temperature, climate control maintains more consistent comfort. The room stays perfectly conditioned regardless of outside weather or time of day.

When Windowless Works Best

Presentation-Heavy Events

Training sessions, sales presentations, or educational seminars with extensive visual content benefit enormously from the controlled environment. Your content takes center stage without competing with outside light.

Confidential Discussions

Sensitive topics, strategic planning, or confidential information discussions appreciate the extra privacy. No one can see in, and the enclosed environment feels more secure for delicate conversations.

All-Day Workshops

While natural light has benefits, some facilitators prefer the consistent environment of windowless spaces. Lighting remains uniform throughout the day, and no afternoon glare disrupts activities.

Focus-Intensive Work

When participants need to concentrate deeply—problem-solving sessions, detailed planning, or analytical work—the lack of external distractions supports sustained mental effort.

Premium Finishing

Carpeted Flooring

Quality carpet throughout dampens sound and creates professional acoustics. Conversations maintain appropriate volume without echoing, and the overall environment supports focused work.

Wallpapered Walls

Wallpaper adds visual interest and warmth that helps prevent the sterile feeling windowless rooms can sometimes have. The finishing quality signals this is premium conference space.

Room Specifications

Comfortable Ceiling Height

The 2.60m ceiling provides adequate vertical space without feeling oppressive. It's higher than Ban Frankopan's 2.05m ceiling, creating a more open feel that prevents any claustrophobic sensation despite the lack of windows.

Two Access Points

Two entry/exit points handle groups of 30-50 adequately. Traffic flow works smoothly for breaks and transitions without creating bottlenecks.

Ideal Use Cases

Corporate Training

Training groups of 25-40 benefit from the focused environment. Participants stay engaged with content rather than watching street activity. The professional A/V setup supports varied training materials effectively.

Sales Presentations

Presenting to client groups or conducting sales training? The controlled environment ensures your content displays perfectly and maintains audience attention throughout.

Strategy Sessions

Leadership teams working through complex strategic decisions appreciate the focused, private environment. The space supports intensive discussion without external interruptions.

Technical Workshops

Workshops requiring sustained concentration on technical content—software training, process documentation, or detailed procedures—work well in the distraction-free environment.

Central Location Benefits

Easy Access

Being in Zagreb's heart means participants navigate confidently to the venue. The central position values everyone's time and reduces stress about finding unfamiliar locations.

Surrounding Amenities

When breaks happen, coffee shops and restaurants sit just outside. The contrast between focused work inside and urban energy outside actually enhances the experience.

Planning Your Event

Capacity Planning

Theater style accommodates approximately 40-50 people, classroom setup fits 30-40, boardroom style works for 25-30, and U-shape seats 20-25. Discuss your attendance expectations and interaction style with the events team.

Managing the Environment

Since there's no natural light, consider scheduling regular breaks for participants to step outside. Some people struggle with windowless environments for extended periods, so planned breaks help maintain energy and focus.

Lighting Design

Work with the events team on lighting that supports your specific needs. Different activities benefit from different lighting levels, and professional setup ensures optimal visibility without fatigue.

Catering Coordination

Refreshment breaks become more important in windowless spaces. Coffee service, healthy snacks, and meal planning help maintain participant energy when they can't look outside to reset their minds.

Working with Windowless Space

Embrace the Benefits

Rather than viewing the lack of windows as a limitation, leverage it as an advantage for presentation-heavy content. Your visuals will look better here than in sun-flooded rooms.

Energy Management

Schedule breaks strategically. Without natural light cues, participants may not realize how long they've been working. Planned breaks maintain energy and prevent that "bunker" feeling.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Won't the lack of windows make the room feel closed-in or uncomfortable?

For shorter meetings (2-4 hours) or presentation-focused events, most people don't find the windowless environment problematic, especially with the 2.60m ceiling height. For all-day events, schedule regular breaks so participants can step outside. The professional lighting, air conditioning, and premium finishes help prevent any oppressive feeling. If your group is particularly sensitive to windowless spaces, consider rooms with natural light instead.

2. What's the ideal capacity for this room?

Ban Dašković accommodates 30-50 people comfortably depending on configuration. Theater style fits 40-50, classroom layout seats 30-40, and boardroom or U-shape work for 20-30. The 70 m² size provides adequate space without feeling empty for medium-sized groups. Discuss your specific needs with the events team for optimal setup.

3. How does this room compare to Ban Frankopan?

Ban Dašković (70 m²) is smaller than Ban Frankopan (100 m²), accommodating 30-50 people versus 40-70. The key difference is Ban Dašković has no windows while Ban Frankopan has four, making Ban Frankopan better for all-day events where natural light matters. However, Ban Dašković's controlled environment is superior for presentation-heavy content. Ban Dašković also has a higher ceiling (2.60m vs 2.05m).

4. Is the audio-visual equipment suitable for professional presentations?

Yes, Ban Dašković includes the same professional setup as larger conference halls—sound system, projection screens, plasma TVs, and sophisticated lighting control. The windowless environment actually enhances A/V quality since there's no competing sunlight or glare. For important presentations where visual content must display perfectly, this controlled environment is ideal.

5. Should we provide anything special for participants since there are no windows?

Consider scheduling breaks every 90-120 minutes so participants can step outside and reset. Provide refreshments during breaks—coffee, water, healthy snacks—to maintain energy. Some planners also ensure the lighting is warm and comfortable rather than harsh fluorescent. These small considerations help participants stay comfortable and focused in the windowless environment.
