    There is an artist at a gallery in Park City UT that I adore that creates chess sets, my favorite one is the Day people vs Night people, but there's also the Republicans vs Democrats and the City people vs the country folk, the link is here: http://www.codagallery.com/park_city/art/index.php?limit=40&artist=139

    Jocelin, that's fun stuff. There's something about chess sets that has always attracted designers to play with the basic shapes and functions.
