Alobby is a room in a building used for entry from the outside.[1] Sometimes referred to as afoyer,entryway,reception area orentrance hall,[2] it is often a large room or complex of rooms (in atheatre,opera house,concert hall,showroom,cinema, etc.) adjacent to theauditorium. It may be a repose area for spectators, especially used before performance and duringintermissions, but also as a place of celebrations or festivities after performance. In other buildings, such as office buildings or condominiums, lobbies can function as gathering spaces between the entrance and elevators to other floors.

Since the mid-1980s, there has been a growing trend to think of lobbies as more than just ways to get from thedoor to theelevator but instead as social spaces and places of commerce.[3][4] Some research has even been done to develop scales to measure lobby atmosphere to improve hotel lobby design.[5] Manyoffice buildings,condominiums,hotels andskyscrapers go to great lengths to decorate their lobbies to create the right impression and convey an image.[6][7][8]
