I spotted this pew a couple of weeks ago at the Birchcliffe Centre in Hebden Bridge, which is a fantastic building.
It's all a bit Drowning by Numbers, could explain why I've had Michael Nyman stuck in my head for the last few days.

Michael Nyman
Bumped into my old boss in Leeds. He seems well. Semi-retired, still doing a bit of SQL training now and again. He asked if I was still in touch with anyone; I said I'd pass on his best wishes.
Help, I’m Trapped in Facebook’s Absurd Pseudonym Purgatory | WIRED
Facebook took my profile away. And it's clear I'm never getting it back.
I saw an (only half serious) article recently that suggested people with phonetic synaesthesia broadly agreed on colours and phonemes. Can't find the link now. But today I had a conversation with a friend who has strong associations between musical keys and colours. We agreed that C major is yellow, but had no other keys and colours in common.
For me, E is white, A is green, D is red, G is brown, C yellow, F blue, B♭ sort of bronze... I don't have strong associations for other keys. Minor keys are darker or paler, so E minor is silver or pale grey. It's definitely tonal centre rather than number of sharps / flats. I'm not aware of making any other sense associations, just this.
Also, come to think of it, I don't have perfect pitch so I can't tell what key something is in just by listening to it. So these colour associations are purely when I'm playing or learning or writing a tune.
