From Michael Lance,
Q: Every time I watch a Crail Couch episode, I can’t help but notice that the bottom, right corner of the window frame has a gap between the bottom and the lower edge of the right side. It’s slowly making me crazy. I think it needs to be caulked or the wood needs to be extended to cover it. Or is it intentionally like that? What’s the story?
A: That gap has confounded many a Couch viewer over the years. And believe it or not, it’s actually a design element that extends to all four corners of the window. Makes a little more sense when you can see it as a whole…but still.—The Tap
