I Love Lucite

There's just something about one great piece of lucite in an otherwise traditional room that looks polished and chic. Whether it's a coffee table or a fabulous Louis Ghost Chair, the clear-ness keeps the room open while adding another dimension.

I absolutely love the Louis Ghost Chairs. And the mosaic tile in the faux fireplace. And the rug. And the curtains. And the chandelier. See how the chairs play off the crystals above them?

The clear legs on this bench look great with the monochromatic color palate. Is the bench floating? No, it's just lucite.

This console table is great - if it was made of heavy wood, it might be too much for the space. But the lucite (or acrylic?) is perfect. I also think the surfboard is such a cool detail. And the pups don't hurt, either.

There's just so much right with this room. The simple lucite coffee table keeps the room from feeling too closed off. It's contemporary lines play nicely against the uber-traditional fireplace mantel.

I love this lucite bar. This would be a great place to curl up and read with a cocktail! And that purple is really rich.

Contemporary chairs in an otherwise traditional room. The lucite with the cheery yellow just makes me happy. Good mix.
