I saw a set layout from TNG that I think came from a fan published tech manual here a while ago. But the layout looked like it was inaccurate because the dimensions of Stage 9 wouldn't have allowed for the size...anyway, does someone have an image of the way the TNG set actually was layed out?

I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about, but a diagram of TNG's set layout on Stage 9 (main engineering, corridors, etc.) is posted in this earlier thread from a year ago. The layout picture itself was provided by MrNeutron and can be found here.

That's the image I was talking about. If you look at it, the size of the corridor would have never fit in Stage 9.

I think this is a picture of a PROPOSED set layout, and not the one they ended up with... In the show, the corridor never extended beyond a third or a half circle at most, ending with the cargo bay / holodeck doors at the other side.

After some research, I've drawn out what the set probably looked like (at least in season 3 or so):

Please tell me what you think!

Hi!
is a lot of time that I try to put down the floor plan of TNG sets, using the VHS before, and 'star trek TNG interactive technical manual' after (this contain some fake thing).
I see also ur draw, AllansFirebird, and is very similar to mine [Wink]

 -

there are also two mistery:
1) in the left/bottom side called 'emissary' there are a very rare corridor, appeared in 'Emissary' and 'Where Silence Has Lease' in two different view.
2) the science lab, sure it is found between trasporter room and sickbay office... but I have still not understood the interior disposition & details. is always 'bad' showed, except in 'Home Soil' and 'the game' (in two difference configurations maybe.

colors have not so importance (in Work in progress, now there are almost-random colours)... anyway, the brown lines are the 'yellow' wall, orange lines are the doors (not fully done).
the red lines are the 'misterius' wall.

whe "W.I.P" are the work in progress area (that I already have in a simply version on papers, but i must put down some details on PC)

the grey areas/lines are OR on-floor object and fornitures, OR, ceil detail (like collums, archs etc...)

Most likely this was done in a CAD program. Each color would have a different line weight defined by the pen table. On screen the colors help differentiate objects but when printed you get a black & white "blueprint" with varying thicknesses of lines.

I suppose the bridge was on another stage?

Yup. This set was on stage 9, and bridge, 10-Forward and Conference room were on stage 8.

Hi!
I have updated the floorplan.
Still a mysterious area: anyone have an idea?
 -
I also put down some W.I.P plans of rare room's sets (that i think are built in stage 9 (probably in the 'mysterious area')

Data's lab was a redress of the NCC-1701A/Ent-D Battle Bridge set.

What about the location of Picard, Crusher or Riker's quarters? Another stage, perhaps?

You could post this over on www.trekbbs.com. Michael Okuda, one of the TNG designers, frequents that DB and answers fan questions.
