It doesn't look like a whole lot of thought was put into the chair/desk pairings - anyone using that upholstered chair with the Switzer desk will have to sit on the edge of the seat to be close to the desk (since there's no way the arms will fit beneath it), and anyone sitting in the leaf chair at the Simone desk better have extremely skinny legs.
