Zap2it's Rosanne Sachson has conducted an interview with ENTERPRISE set decorator Jim Mees. Mees has been with 'Trek' for 14 years, since being hired in 1987 for 'Next Generation'. Here's an excerpt in which Mees talks about the design of the captain's chair:
"We took an existing form, which was actually a boat seat, like a submarine chair. We added an articulating arm with a built-in monitor. From the chair, the captain can see and speak to all on the bridge/set. The seat slides from side-to-side to manage all the controls and for the camera to shoot beyond the captain without the captain/actor having to get out of his seat."
