Our tastes could not be more different! But I appreciate that there are people out there who like this stuff - I think it's interesting, I just don't know if I could live with it myself.

it's like a DWR expo. I like, for the most part, though I imagine I'll just be sticking to some basic Eames wooden chairs for the table.

Well, that is not how it is set up normally. We were having more people than we usually would, so we emptied out other rooms, plus my wife's office. Normally we use Cappellini Tate Chairs. Glasses are Lobmeyr, which vox claims to love, though perhaps he has never seen them in real life.

If I'm ever in SF, make sure you stick me on the tractor chair.

Probably the most comfortable at the table.

I'm impressed that you reenacted the party from Sleeper.

I've tried it myself, but it never has worked out quite right.

For those of you who do not know: movie was filmed in poo's co-op.

The camera sucks. The curtains are bronze with a high sheen to them. They are really not that dark in person.

Thanks. She hated it, but it seems to be the first thing everyone mentions when they come over, so I never let her forget that I picked it out

Best? No, I do not know. But for the love of god please never get anything that is featured in the Robb Report (like those pool tables with elephants and **** carved into the legs)
