	'''The Lobby''' is the 'first' [[Liminal Sub-Space]] within the [[Backrooms System]] (and the one nearly everyone whom accidentally enters the Backrooms end up in), taking the form of a infinite office building with a seemingly infinite number of segmented rooms and corridors nearly universally covered in dull-yellow wallpaper and moist tight-nit carpets whose monotony is often sufficient to cause significant psychological distress in the form of isolation, paranoia, and depression. The Lobby is particularly notable for how susceptible it is to the structural changes often caused by the [[Perception Principle]], as areas which are not actively observed or physically marked often tend to rearrange themselves given enough time unaccounted for (aside from 'stable points' where such restructurings are negated), making traversal often difficult as backtracking is not possible most of the time. The entire Backrooms System heavily revolves around the Lobby as the anchor from which all other iterations of itself (which are the other Sub-Spaces) extend from. As the Backrooms is incredibly closely tied to Baseline Reality, it can be inferred that most locations within the Backrooms are imitations of locations it is connected to within Reality alongside imitations of locations within the Backrooms itself, leading to a process of repeating abstractions which have together coalesced into what is known as The Lobby at the middle of everything.		'''The Lobby''' is the 'first' [[Liminal Sub-Space]] within the [[Backrooms System]] (and the one nearly everyone whom accidentally enters the Backrooms end up in), taking the form of a infinite empty office building with a seemingly infinite number of segmented rooms and corridors nearly universally covered in dull-yellow wallpaper and moist tight-nit carpets whose monotony is often sufficient to cause significant psychological distress in the form of isolation, paranoia, and depression.

	While it may seem to be rather random, the Lobby is home to a number of architectural variations which present as visually different rooms or 'segments'. Many simple segments are simply areas where the texture of the wallpaper changes up/down a staircase, where rooms of similar design repeat in a massive grid-like pattern, and areas where the layout of the Lobby changes drastically. More complex aberrations include rooms of wholly differing design such as archways elevated above the carpet, rooms full of lattice/grid-patterned pillars, groups of pits leading deep into the ground without an end in sight, areas where the otherwise loud buzzing of the lights cuts out as everything is an eerily silent darkness, rooms with deep-red wallpapers which completely enclose one within them without a method of escape, among many others.
