I Love Lucite

I love lucite. It's clean, beautiful, and classic yet modern. It pairs well with chrome and glass. Touches of lucite, or acrylic can be added relatively inexpensively with chairs and lamps. Larger pieces, like tables, make a strong statement. I'm always on the hunt for second-hand acrylic pieces, as they can be expensive.

Here are a couple of Kijiji finds that I scored. This dining room table replaced the original harvest wood one. It was a steal at about $150 used.

Here is an acrylic desk which contrasts nicely with the black and white roman blinds.

One thing about acrylic is that it is unforgiving and understated. That means everything around it must also be clean and minimal - letting it be the star of the show.
