apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I love these features of conglomerations of like things.

I often don't like clear plastic furniture. I am not convinced that these things will wear well and won't look tacky fast. But, in the Oct. issue of Met Home, I saw the best use of clear plastic furniture I've ever seen. It's a long dining room table next to a loft-type wall of windows. I believe the table is shiny. On either side of the table are clear plastic chairs and there is a clear plastic candleabra on the table. It's really magical and sparkly and from a distance, the chairs disappear.

We recently stayed at Auberge Saint-Antoine in Quebec and were surprised by how much we liked the clear acrylic chair at the desk in our room.

Does anyone remember a gentleman posting that he had his furniture custom made at a plastics company? I like the cb2 console but I wanted to look into custom made, it may be on atny
