They are wearing light, neutral-toned clothing (cream and soft green). In front of each person is an open notebook, suggesting a discussion. There are three cups of warm, steaming tea and a wooden bowl on a table runner with subtle, woven Pasifika-inspired patterns. The scene is softly lit, conveying calm, togetherness, and cultural support.
