Chris,
Thanks for the visual. Very easy to understand what you are proposing. The name and color only scheme is exactly what we used on our old site. Independent of attempting to combine the small and large room on the same cell, I think the clarity is about the same; just my opinion looking at both of them side to side. Now if we did try to put them together, the old scheme is definitely easier to implement. Back to that in a minute.
We originally tried the Saturday and Sunday on the same lines as the weekday schedule and kept having students show up during the week for the weekend slots. "Oh I thought there was an 8am during the week". Separating them seemed to do the trick for others.
Back to the two rooms on the same grid: As we add more classes and times I am not sure the layout scales. If we ever stagger the times we are back the problem described with the weekend classes. In addition it gets crowded fast if we have classes in both rooms all day long. Moreover, what happens if we ever have a studio with 3 rooms?
Nonetheless, I still get your point and would love to have others weigh in. Nothing is set in stone.
Great topic!!!
Brandon
