When designing the piece for Amanda Nevill, Sebastian Cox took inspiration form the mezzanine at the British Institute overlooking the box office on the ground floor. Sebastian compares the space to the wings of a stage. 

"Having spoken to some screenwriters, it seems important to have this balance in observing people or a scene, but then also being able to shut yourself away from distractions, so the desk and even the chair are designed around this triangle perspective." - Sebastian Cox
