Clearly Chic

I've had an obsession with Lucite/acrylic furniture for a while now and lately, I seem to be noticing it everywhere. Who knew crystal clear, see-through furniture could look so chic and be used in so many different ways? Chairs, cocktail and console tables, bench and ottoman legs, desks, light fixtures...the list goes on and on. And the best part is that you can place a piece of Lucite/acrylic furniture in just about any setting - modern, traditional, industrial, rustic...as you'll see in the gallery of photos I've pulled together. I'm especially in love with the Louis Style acrylic dining chairs from Room Service (image #14). Those have been officially added to my ongoing / neverending home decor "wish list"! What do you think about this furniture style? Would you use it in your own home?

Quote of the Week

"The most important thing about color is that it cannot be isolated...Every color is only ever seen in juxtaposition with other ones."
