Carson: Your apartment is going to look fabulous once I’m finished decorating it!
Brooke: I really appreciate you taking the time to help me choose some furniture, but I’d really like to keep the look conservative and traditional.
Carson: Nonsense! You have a fabulous new apartment and I’m going to help you make the most of it. Look at that oval mirror. It’ll look fantastic in your hall.
Brooke: That mirror is gigantic! I don’t think I want anything that size. How about this rectangular one?
Carson: That’s too puny for that space. Oh, look at this triangular bookcase. It would really complement the fireplace in the den.
Brooke: I don’t think that bookcase is very functional. The shelves are so narrow and it’s an odd shape. It really looks nice, but I need furniture that I can actually use. I like this one better.
Carson: How boring! You need something that makes a statement. How about this chair? It’s fabulous!
Brooke: It’s a humongous circle on the floor with a cushion on top of it. I don’t think anyone would ever sit on it.
Carson: Yes, but in design, you have to consider form before function.
Brooke: That’s where we differ. I actually have to live in this apartment, remember?
