Shorely Chic said...

I'm loving it, too! It's the perfect modern touch to any room. Classic with a touch of lucite = perfection.

Ashley said...

This is great inspiration. I especially love the classic pieces with the lucite too! I need something lucite!

Melanie said...

I really love lucite, I don't have any in my home but I think it is so chic!

Acanthus and Acorn said...

Me either!!! Love the vanity stool and the bar stools in your images!

Trish said...

Oh Susan, it is all SO FAB! I am in love with the desk in #1, I think I could get so much accomplished in that little space! :) The entire vanity in #7 is just to die for, that mirror, the little bench, oh, just LOVE it all...oh! and the bedroom in #12! It's move-in ready, and my bags are packed!

Thanks for the inspiration as always...hope you're enjoying the last warm days of summer to the max! xoxo

Stephanie said...

I love the top one best! And I still like the ghost chairs, even though they're sort of overdone now...

Aspiring Kennedy said...

I love lucite too... I wish it weren't so dang expensive!! :)

Have a great week, Sue!

Hamptontoes said...

I absolutely love lucite in a home. You have shown some fabulous examples of how to tastefully incorporate it into various rooms!

Belly said...

Me too! And that purple room is ah-mazing (and I don't usually love such big amounts of purple together).

stylebyrachael said...

I can't even choose a favorite! I love them ALL. I have to get a piece!

Dancing Branflake said...

I have never seen lucite done so well. You have such the eye!

Tonia @Chic Modern Vintage said...

You can never have too much Lucite, can you?

Brandi said...

I'm drooling over the desk in the second pic! I'm working on decor for my living room and I'm thinking a lucite coffee table is the way to go!

Café Bellini said...

These are beautiful! Very inspiring...

perfect timing of this post....I am in the market to buy a white lacquer desk. Do you know who makes the desk in picture # 5? Jon Adler? It kind of looks like and Adler desk I saw. Love all these!

Love lucite. Such a great selection, would love to add some to my office. XO

Susie @ Maddie's Nest said...

I have those Kartell Chairs on my wish list....and I think it was Averill over at Odi et Amo who posted a lucite chest recently and I am dying to incorporate that into a space as well. Great inspiration as usual!

Stacey said...

Lucite-licious! Love all of the pics:-). xx

CarolynSeymour said...

Remember when lucite Bat Mitzvah favors were all the rage?

Nuit said...

I totally agree, every image is so obsession-worthy its insane. I love the flowered chairs. I have seen those before but have no idea who designed them.

Second image is a dream. xo

Kim@Chattafabulous said...

I'm with you on this one but sadly I don't have any lucite! Hoping to fix that soon, with maybe some kitchen stools or a chair for my vanity.

Flavia @ Estilo Home said...

Oh yes, love lucite! It makes just about any room look more chic!

Cara said...

me either! Love love love it!

Gramercy Home said...

You clearly have a great eye! Just love the the upholstered lucite benches in the bedroom. I've been wishing one would show up at my door for a while now. Great post!

Style Attic said...

The kitchen with the castered barstools and the 2 giant drum shades is my Monday pop of "circle"! I'm thinking that's what it would be like to love and live in that part of the home. Are those metallic bronze cushions??!! FAB :)

pve design said...

love the wipe factor -: and that it is see through.

Clearly spectacular! My favorite is the black and white room with the wood and lucite desk! Where do you go to have something made in lucite?

Estelle said...

Love lucite but all I think about are grubby little two-year old finger prints. So anal I know but I can't help it.

Kathy said...

We bought a condo in Palm Springs, CA in 2001...furnished a famous golfer had lived there and the furniture was old and ready to go to the dump (we thought) we had a consignment store owner come to see if she wanted any of it...the table was lucite, she said new in the 60's it probably sold for $40K WHAT...that was the only thing she took with her and we got a check for $2500.00 a few months later....we never new it would come back in style...

Jenn @ Living Luxe for Less said...

I love lucite too! I especially like the little accent table in between the two armchairs with the blue flowers on top. It's such a fun contrast to the rest of the room. Love it!

Elaine said...

So amazing! I love how clean and fresh they all look.

clothed much, a modest fashion blog

Love the color pops of blue in some of the pictures. I love the subtle splashes of color against the whites! These pics just made my day and also makes me wish I had more money to spend on decor!

Hazel Williams said...

Love all of these images! They are too cool! I really need to get an item of lucite into my home too! :) Hazel

Megan {Honey We're Home} said...

Love lucite, but none in my home. I love those pendant lights in the kitchen shot. Gorg.

MarchMusings said...

Love the current avatar of lucite. It has come a long way since the 60's version of it.

Splendid Willow said...

It is clear that I need to get my act together! (:

Never owned a piece but a couple of Ghost chairs with gray (short haired) sheep pelts (for extra comfort) would be lovely. Or a small sidetable in between 2 chairs. Could not do a dining or coffee table though. Don't want to stare at any sad feet on the other side of the plexi!

Happy new week to you, Sue!

Leigha said...

Mary Jo from TrustYourStyle said...

I have such a weakness for lucite--it's everywhere in my house, and I was just thinking tonight that my cat's love of lucite exceeds my own and if only Kareem Rashid knew...but if you can live with a few scratches it truly does make a room feel light and airy :) Love your pics and photos!

Erika ~TiptoeButterfly~ said...
