For anyone new to acrylic furniture and accessories, perhaps introducing smaller items to your home is a good place to start.

The Insidherland Alentejo Side Table takes its inspiration from the rolling plains of cork oaks trees that are found in Alentejo in Portugal. Its design celebrates nature while boasting a sleek, transparent acrylic table top which oozes modern style. This sophisticated table will suit a variety of interior styles, whether you want to introduce it to a more traditional space or a contemporary one.

Acrila is a brand famous for their use of acrylic in their designs. Their contemporary furniture pieces exude effortless style, bringing together inspirations from a variety of sources. The Polygone collection, which includes the Polygone Chair and Nesting Tables, flaunt striking geometric patterns in their designs, making for stunning monochromatic statement pieces. Their partly see-through aesthetic will also help if you're working with a small space - they will help open up the room! These pieces, which showcase Acrila’s creative and unique manipulation of acrylic as a core material, will make an excellent addition to any interior. 

In order to differentiate themselves from other brands, Acrila seem to merge style with humour in their designs, creating eccentric pieces ideal for quirky individuals and homes!
