This was recently posted by attorney Chuck Newton in Texas:

“Whether you are a Third Wave attorney or not, you still need furniture.  It might be for your home, your home office, or your out of the home office.  You want to be stylish, but we advocate green as well.

Check out the new furniture by Christian Brown Design.  It’s called the Echo Series because it is made from salvaged wood, reclaimed panels of eco-resin, and stainless steel rods, cap screws, and connector bolts.  The 3form panelslevitate above reclaimed wood blocks.”

This is the newest addition to the echo series, echo 7.  It is similar to echo 4 but not as tall.  Overall dimensions are 16″ x 48″ x 18″.  The top is another piece of eco-resin called “linea ochre”, 1/2″ thick.  The linea ochre material is slightly more translucent than some of the other eco-resin material which allows more of the hardware and base to be visible through the top.  Eco-resin is manufactured by 3form, http://www.3-form.com, and is available in a wide variety of colors, styles and thicknesses.  Echo 7 was commissioned by architectural clients of mine, owners of the Appletree Lane project.  Two echo 5 tables and an echo 6 table have just recently shipped to the Shaw Cramer Gallery on Martha’s Vineyard where this series has been very well received.
