Acrylic Shelves

July 16, 2014

Given how much I prattle on about acrylic as an organizational material (I do do that, don’t I?)–

[Quick review session: acrylic is much more substantial, sturdy, and lux as compared to its inferior iteration–plastic, while being less fragile than glass. It helps to constantly achieve a clean look and feel, and, is it’s nearly invisible, it’s ultra cramped-space-friendly.]

–it’s rather surprising that I haven’t yet divulged to you this earth-shaker:

It’s possible to get your daily dose of acrylic in the form of shelving.

Check it (don’t wreck it):

 

Storage can be pretty! Loving the idea of using acrylic shelves to keep things looking streamlined.

Storage can be pretty! Acrylic shelves in the bathroom--so much better than plastic and so much less fragile than glass. Win-win.

Bookshelf styling never looked so good! Loving these examples of acrylic shelving.

office storage and bookshelves of the acrylic variety.

I’m finding myself quite infatuated with the concept currently.

Because they’re mainly structural due to the lack of color etc., acrylic shelves feel edgy; sleek, and also simultaneously melts away into the wall behind, showcasing whatever items they’re storing.
