You can populate an auditorium with a single chair model like this one by using a pair of Array modifiers.
Also, it’s worth it to note that the chair itself was modeled with a Mirror and Subsurf modifier.

I was unable to do the spiral stair example in the book because it keeps doing weird stuff to the scale, even after making sure the empty was at a scale of 1. It always wants to scale the object being modified. Also, the settings in the example pictures are too tiny to read.
Hi Matt. What’s probably happening is that your original object – the one that you’re applying the array modifier to – has a scale value that’s either larger or smaller than 1. You can remedy this by applying the Scale of the object (Ctrl+A -> Scale to Obdata). Also, you may find it helpful that I’ve actually posted the spiral staircase file on this site. Have a look there to see how I did it.
Thanks for reading my book!
