Hahaha! No, I liked the frame and panel look in their hallway but the only
entertainment coming from this "center" was the sound of shoes smacking in
the drawers!

In my family farmhouse, the idea of a shoe bench would have been as
out of place as a flock of live dodo birds. We kept our shoes on so
our socks would stay relatively clean.
