the only thing i love more than lucite is you

…i mean it! returning from twenty-four days on the road to all of your comments and emails made my week. your kind words mean the world to me and i’m truly grateful to each and every one of you for reading and commenting day in and day out. you rock!

to return the favor, i’ve put together a little feast for your eyes in one of my favorite materials. i hope you all love lucite as much as i do!
now i’m not suggesting you take your love of lucite to this extreme (though if you did i wouldn’t blame you), but i do think a little dose here and there is one of the simplest ways to create visual interest in a room. a shot of transparency adds a unique layer that forces guests to do a double take — in a good way, of course!

the dining room does seem to be a popular place to introduce this material. the eros chairs in this space act as a neutral foundation for extraordinary floral arrangements and, i hope, vibrant color palettes and table settings for entertaining.
or perhaps you prefer these seemingly more comfortable versions? i think i do.

they would look equally fabulous in your bedroom…

then again the eros shape could be made cozy (but still chic!) with a custom cushion. oh, frank, how i love thee.

speaking of comfort and style, it doesn’t get much better than the lucite chair in this dressing room (okay, and everything else inside it!). can you even imagine?

i love the curves of this comfy creation.

do a desk chair and a coffee table make for lucite overload?

how fun is the mix of modern and traditional here? the lucite desk is to die for.

a girl after my own heart, mary mcgee is a big fan of using lucite in her fabulous interiors. her portfolio is not to be missed!

i adore this lucite coffee table. if the hot chocolate walls, floor-t0-ceiling bookcases, fun fabrics, and jute rug weren’t enough, the lucite adds even more texture.

a lucite console table that doubles as a bookcase? when it looks this good, why not?

a fresh take on the lucite coffee table are these two occasional tables. i love that you can peak through the tables to the cool geometric rug underneath them.

i know it’s not lucite but i couldn’t resist throwing in this transparent lamp and its gorgeous surroundings. i’m not much for bicycles in the bedroom but i’d take a lovely lamp like this one any day.
looking to introduce a little lucite into your own place? i love the feel of the following well-priced finds:

the container store has an admirable selection of lucite goodies for your jewelry and office supplies.

how does your love of lucite compare to mine? as always, i love to hear from you!
