When Hinckley received a “remember us?” phone call from the partners some time later, he set up a meeting: O'Connell and Lynch arrived with stacks and stacks of architectural digests, all dogeared at special features they wanted to incorporate. After following page by page through issue after issue. Hinckley said he suggested they put the digests back on the shelves and tell him what they wanted to end up with.
