The neon trend continues to gain momentum and we can see why — used well, neon looks cheerful and contemporary. While some designers, like Karim Rashid, are happy to saturate entire rooms in neon hues, the look often works best at home by choosing a few well-placed pieces. If you're looking to add an ultra-bright dose of color to your home, here are a few accessories to get you started.
1. A basement makeover in House Beautiful includes a variety of neon accessories, including pillows, art, and a hot pink bird figurine.
2. A William Wegman doodle on a hot pink pillow from Crypton, $40.

The best part about the HB interview:
"So where's the ground level now?
At the bottom of the new windows. She looks out at grass, but it's a long view. And the dogs come up and look in — "Hi! How are you doing?"
No no no no no. Neon was a bad idea in the 1980s and it's still a bad idea.
i m in love with that basement , i love the colors , so alive.
Love the cosmic look of Karim Rashid and the neon look, so joyous and lots of fun, there is something musical about it.

My eyes!!
Good lordy, these are WAY too bright.
I love color, but these colors are just too much!
I love it. It's like PeeWee's Playhouse. The pale walls and light wood keep it from being too much or too 80s.

they are a great pop of color.
Thankfully you can paint furniture more than once!
