Thinking Clearly: Acrylic Trend

Acrylic brings a light, bright, “airiness” to a room. By using either an accent piece like a lamp or a larger piece like a table or chair, touches of acrylic can beautify and freshen any space. The setting does not need to be modern, just use acrylic pieces sparingly. I’ve added a couple of touches to my design studio and I love the look (photos of the studio are coming soon!) Here are a few examples of some gorgeous acrylic designs:

Beautiful works of art: Sander Mulder Clear Acrylic Lamps ($500-$5000)

Acrylic Desk Set from Horchow ($28-$68)

Add a ghost chair to a desk or vanity ($110 at Amazon.com). Lowe’s and IKEA both have a version of the stacked acrylic ball lamp at a very reasonable price.

Glass top acrylic coffee table from Wisteria ($899)

Acrylic is right at home in this kitchen. The contrasting design elements create interesting detail taking “eclectic” to a new level! Casper Bar stools available at Amazon. ($205 for a set of 2)

Acrylic Tobias Chairs from IKEA ($79) echo the airy outdoor feel of this windowed dining space

Just a touch of acrylic on the bench legs lightens up this beautiful sheepskin bench from Horchow ($1889)
