Design I can't stand: Beautiful, but only a sadist would create seating at a 90 degree angle like this... and only a masochist would sit in it.
@moseskagan If the seat is deep enough then the pillow is the one in charge to provide support at an inclined angle. Execution > Idea
@moseskagan I made a similar booth for my kitchen. The depth is too deep to comfortably sit back so there isn’t really a point to angle the back. Much better to adjust the pillows to give you the back support you need. But make sure you have lots of pillows!
@moseskagan Sounds mutually beneficial
@moseskagan One of the woodwork mags did a great primer, setting out comfortable angles for a dinette Very important!
@moseskagan haha. The worst. Fun fact: Did you know McDonald's seats are designed to be comfortable enough to sit in but not comfortable enough to sit in for an extended period of time?
@moseskagan Plus the added bonus of the shelf lip at the top that digs into your back, should you attempt to "lean" back...
