Examine the lobby
Dominating the lobby is the front desk. This long, curved front desk is four feet high and runs the length of one wall. Faced with black marble, it makes a formidable impression, imposing its presence on the room.
To one side stands a black leather sofa. This is the kind of thing you expect from a high-end Vat Clone business, which is highly regulated and very, very expensive - the royal treatment for a kingly price.
You idly look at the magazine rack. A business like GeneIVR Tech services a lot of older clients seeking new bodies - and old folks tend to be the main supporters of a flagging print industry. It contains a copy of New Living, a glossy magazine, with a photo of some old guy and a twenty year old version of the same guy, side by side.
There is a a typical waiting room endtable, handcrafted from vat-grown zebrawood. On the endtable is a brochure. This looks like GeneIVR Tech's generic PR and product offerings brochure.
