Well done! Wood is an amazing material. Don't not mind these comments about investing your time better. You did it right. A solid and comfortable environment is essential for a good product. Maybe good ideas were created at starbucks, but certainly not good products.

Then why did they design their office to look like a starbucks?

Hah, nice! Ironically, my mom is an interior designer. We're still working on what to hang on the wall, furniture and layout, but I have some ideas of how to make it personal/local, hopefully that'll take it a bit out of the Starbucks genre.
