The Gadget Station is a charging center for everyday electronics.  Primary wood is bubinga with spalted maple panels and a figured maple back panel.  Ebony accents.  Finish is a wiping varnish.

The piece has a great deal of Greene & Greene influence with my own perspective added in.

This project was built for Leo Laporte, a well-known tech enthusiast.
