Hmmm. I think this was a redo of a redo. I suspect somebody began working on this chair with the intentions of making it red, but then worried about possible retributions from neighborhood thugs who might naturally assume that this red chair was a member of a rival gang. So Allison kept it neutral. Better to be safe than sorry.
You can see the full story on her blog Two Thirty-Five Designs, not to mention a picture of her that totally backs up my street-gang theory.
