I don't want to speak for Ben, but I did see Mark Walsh's office right after Ben finished some major work on it, and it totally rocks! It's amazing! Since Mark Walsh's office walls are basically deluxe pre-fab cube walls that go floor to ceiling, Ben couldn't cut into them to put in a window box or other stuff without it protuding through into the next office. So he had to build a false wall in front of that pre-fab cube wall, and place the rain window box effect into that. Pretty cool idea, I must say, and you can't even tell that false walls were put in when you are in Mark's office.

If I remember correctly, Ben used the clear mylar strips to simulate the rain, just like in Disneyland's Enchanted Tiki Room. In fact, I believe he pretty much built the windows in the exact same fashion as the ones in the ETR. No details on exactly how he built the window box - he'll have to tell us that himself. And I don't think that there's a background image in Mark's "windows" like what I want to do.
