There is more room in front than it appears. The perspective makes it look less. there will be less room there anyway, because it's a smaller bridge.

The 4 seater would be a better homage to the original Falcon cockpit.

Yes. That's the point. Exactly.
The original Falcon cockpit has stations for Pilot, Co-pilot, Comm and Astrogation. For this design, Pilot could be Helm, Co-pilot could be Ops, Engineering is still there, and the fourth station could be science/tactical/mission-specific.  These Okudagram interfaces are supposed to be custom-configurable, after all. All these can be addressed with the one-seat wraparounds like what's show here, up front.
Now, here we could add an Engineering station along one of those two bulkheads, with the other being computer system access a-la Enterprise Delta.

Agree with their comments.  Perhaps at least only the Captain's chair in the middle?  I have no time to discuss this in committee!

I pondered over this myself and decided to go this way for a couple of reasons. One, this crosssover as you can tell by the other views, is larger than the original Falcon although it keeps the basic profile. Two, and this is one I have considered in all ships ..be they mine or others......Regardless of the size of the ship....the same command stations would be required to run it as far as I see.  If all of the commands could be compiled into one or 2 small stations due to computer assistance....would this not be the case for a large ship as well?
