"15 Minutes of Fame" by Sybil Sage at CustomMade.com
“Crafted from cherry solids, maple inlay and Baltic birch plywood, the 65″ tall Cascade chest is inspired by the curvaceous forms of perfume bottles. Designed for production, the design makes efficient use of materials with highly repeatable elements. The piece is finished in a hand rubbed oil to highlight the visual qualities of the wood. The Cascade Chest was selected to be exhibited in the Furniture Society booth during the 2007 International Contemporary Furniture fair in New York City.” “Alan Harp Design … because what you want doesn’t exist… yet. Experienced in furniture design, theater set design, room remodeling, product photography, artistic painting, and a whole bunch of other fun stuff, Alan Harp Design can help you create what you can’t get anywhere else.”
