What fits in Ciba-Geigy Garden
With a 3.1 m ceiling, a flown wall of Absen A2 Pro (2.97 mm) runs 46 tiles wide by 2 high (92 tiles, 23 x 1 m, 7728 x 336 px) once you keep 1.5 m of trim under the bottom edge. That wall weighs about 920 kg and draws up to 17 kW (82 A at 208 V). Floor space after a 12 x 7 m stage seats roughly 1,695 theater, 693 banquet, or 476 classroom. The previz lets you move the wall, change the tile, and check sightlines from the back row.
| Panel | Pitch | Wall (cols x rows) | Size | Resolution | Weight | Power (max) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9thPanel DW1.9 S Pro | 1.875 mm | 38 x 3 = 114 | 22.8 x 1 m | 12160 x 540 | 547 kg / 1,206 lb | 29 kW, 139 A @ 208 V |
| Absen A2 Pro | 2.97 mm | 46 x 2 = 92 | 23 x 1 m | 7728 x 336 | 920 kg / 2,028 lb | 17 kW, 82 A @ 208 V |
| Absen A3 Pro | 3.9 mm | 46 x 2 = 92 | 23 x 1 m | 5888 x 256 | 874 kg / 1,927 lb | 14.7 kW, 71 A @ 208 V |
Wall sizing assumes 1.5 m trim to the bottom edge, 0.3 m clearance under the ceiling, and a wall no wider than 80% of the longest wall. Weight and power are tile totals from the panel spec sheet; add processing, rigging, and cable.
Planning notes
No rigging point data is published for this venue yet; plan on ground-supported LED or ask the venue for its rigging plot. 12 of the 13 rooms sit under 3.5 m, which rules out flown LED there and limits ground-stacked walls to about 6 rows of 500 mm tile.
Data source
Published dimensions. Dimensions from the venue's published meeting-space specifications (source). Rooms drawn as boxes use published length x width; square rooms were derived from published area only, so treat their shape as approximate. Venue managers: send a floor plan to upgrade your listing to production-ready.
