Hi Shel,
It reminds me of showcase installations in a furniture shop. An IKEA

I remember the chair as well.

Hi Fred,
Rather than just echo the sentiments expressed by others, I'd be curious to
know why you chose to make the adjustments you did, and why to such a
degree. And what did Leah think of the result?
