It is actually two sofas that I bolted together. A company in canada makes these incredibly versatile sofas called Chameleon and the back portions fit with posts-in-slots design so we can reconfigure the pieces in a variety of ways.We bought them through a store in Anchorage called Scanhome, one of those danish modern places with higher end and some low end pieces. Look up chameleon sofa on the web

“I always wanted to live in a glass house,” explains Valerie Phelps, as she stands surrounded by the 40 feet of floor-to-ceiling windows that are the only walls of her living room. Laid out in a 270-degree panorama in front of her is the frosty expanse of Cook Inlet, cascading rocky mountains, and a white sun as big as a dinner plate. It’s 10:30 at night and the sun is stuck in high-noon position. “I mean,” Phelps pauses, her wineglass refracting specks of light throughout the room, “how could you not want look at this view all day?”
