Streamline Event Planning with Space Planning Tools from CORT

It can feel challenging to bring life and energy into a large, empty space. The potential is limitless, but a blank canvas can feel intimidating without some direction. Space planning technology can help event planners design and redesign their event vision online--before they commit to a single piece of furniture.

CORT Events’ space planning tool, powered by Social Tables, can help. To create a unique and perfectly planned space, event planners simply log into their account on www.cortevents.com and access the tool for free. Whether it’s on a venue’s preloaded floor plan or a custom uploaded file, play around with different configurations and room designs entirely to scale—all without leaving the comfort of your seat.

The CORT Events product line is entirely integrated into the 2D and 3D space planner, so designers can see exactly how their product and color combinations will look in that space--down to the inch--before the furniture is delivered to the venue. CORT Events’ commitment to customer service ensures seamless execution, with the attention to detail and white-glove service that event planners expect from the brand.

We worked with Mental Health America to host their annual conference, held every year in Washington, D.C. To streamline the planning process, their team started by exploring the venue with the space planner.

The senior director of partnerships and community outreach at Mental Health America, America Paredes, found that the tool made a huge difference: “Once you placed furniture, you could see the 3D version of it--that’s what I really liked. That then helped me visualize how things could flow if we had more space, or even in sense of color, because you could see the different color varieties. That was really helpful. Ultimately, that ended up being really useful for the folks who actually brought the furniture in. I just handed them a colored copy of my diagram of what I wanted it to look like, and they just went at it.”
