		<description>The craft is pretty exceptional on these chairs. I&#039;m curious to see what kind of equipment they have at their facilities and what kind of production techniques they employ. The furniture we do at Georgia Tech is really focused on woodworking through cnc machines. Everything we do is really technical and modeled digitally. I&#039;d love seeing the furniture produced by students with a more artistic background.

Their upholstery looks outstanding, which is something we don&#039;t exactly do and I&#039;m glad of that. I hate sewing. Their color palettes and just style in general are very retro 60s 70s which is ok, but I&#039;m not the biggest fan.

The concept of the In Between Chair is nice, but it feels underdeveloped. The cushions look too thin and the feet look a bit like an afterthought.

I love We Get Along. It&#039;s simple and clean and has a timeless quality that fits any style. It&#039;s easily adaptable and a flexible canvas for an interior. 

The Woody Chair does a great job at celebrating the qualities of the material. It has strong stout lines and the color of the fabric pairs the finish of the wood quite nicely.

The execution of the Say-O chair is spectacular. It must have been a pain in the ass to form that plywood so I can really appreciate that craftsmanship. The legs provide an excellent complement since they enhance the feeling of openness.

The Hatch Chair looks like it is sitting on paperclips. Does anyone else see that?

I appreciate the asymmetry of the Half Pipe chair. It gives it a dynamic quality that is subtle but noticed. Again I feel the legs are a missed design opportunity.

I feel like the Spin Chair is kind of radical for the sake of being different. I know it breaks the conventional form of what a chair is and I appreciate that kind of thinking, but I&#039;m just not a big fan of chairs I don&#039;t think I&#039;d feel comfortable sitting in.

I think the most successful designs took into account the whole form and really looked at how the legs played with the seat.

That&#039;s my 2 cents...plus like a million cents.</description>
