Lucite Makes it (Back) to the Desktop, and Everywhere

A $34 lucite stapler and its sister $32 lucite tape dispenser--finally. I'm unfortunately already happy with my desk accessories, but want to share Homework LA's (Hollywood, of course) website nonetheless. Homework should probably make an appearance as Showroom of the Week, for their ability to make everyday objects feel like little moments. (See, especially, their egg timers and alarm clocks.) Avenue G is featuring William Stranger's reclaimed credenza today too.


Bigger picture, watch coffeetables and desk chairs in sales offices this Summer. Lucite and acrylic are everywhere, with an always-useful credibility injection by Philippe Starck's Louis Ghost Armchair remake of the Kartell classic Louis XVI armchair ($334 at DWR). Please, DWR, make granite go away for good next.
