1. Add space and sparkle. Since the eye travels right through it, acrylic 'blends with its surroundings and imparts a sense of spaciousness and lightness,' says Holly Becker, a Boston interior designer and author of the popular blog decor8 (decor8.blogspot.com). An acrylic table in an entryway, for instance, provides a surface for display and storage but takes up zero visual space.

And while glass reflects light, acrylic actually carries it, 'allowing light to dance in a space,' Becker says, and making the material seem lit from within."
