After the introductions and small talk. Tina began to set up her projector and laptop.
Bette helped by pulling down the blinds.
Shane leaned towards Kit:” Ah aren’t they lovely”
Kit: “who Dana and Alice?”
Shane: “no those two” nodding towards Tina and Bette.
Kit: “No? Really?”
Shane nodded and leaned back on the sofa.

Tina: “ Right I think I’m ready”
Bette went over to join Kit, and the others. Tina dimmed the lights.
Tina tapped a few keys on her laptop. A video started. It was virtual reality Planet. It started with the outside, daylight glinting off the huge sign above blue awnings. The view took them through huge French doors. All around was space, booths with brown leather chairs lined the walls, chrome tables and chairs filled the floors. The floor was parkey wood. The walls painted white, huge master pieces hung from the walls, lit by backdrop lighting. The coffee counter glinted with chrome and steel.
The view cut to the outside again this time, the back where there was decking and more tables.

Tina: “ This is the Planet as the coffee shop, as you can see we’ve opened up the space by taking out the interior walls, and highlighting the space with white alls and huge art. With the seating layout you can cater for 150 customers, double of what it can hold now. That’s not including the seating outside”
The view cut to the bathrooms. These were now luxurious, all white and chrome, not the dingy grey that was there presently.

Tina: “ So that was the Planet by day are you ready to see it by night”

The group stunned by Tina’s designs just nodded their assent.

The view cut to the outside of the Planet again, this time the evening. The sign above the awing now shone neon white the name standing out like the moon.
Now moving inside, the room pulsed with colour, and there was a raised stage. The tables and chairs had been removed. The booths remained creating a dance floor.

Tina: “ This raised stage area, can be fitted with static band equipment and a do booth. It comes up from the basement for the evenings electronically. The lights you see change to the tempo of the music being played. So for example if these was soft music” she tapped a few keys, sound emitted from the laptop. “the lights will change colour as you can see here, and the pulsing lessens.”
