Are you looking for a new statement piece for your home or office? If so, furniture is a fantastic way to express creativity.
At work, it can represent professionalism, style, and sleekness. At home, it can highlight your tastes and preferences. At events, furniture can relay precisely the message you want to send, whether that’s fun and playful or classy and traditional.
In short, furniture is an extension of the self. What story does the furniture around you tell?
If you’re not filled with joy as you answer that question, it may be time to add a lucite cocktail table to your collection. It’s the perfect addition for business or for the home—versatile enough to blend it with its surroundings but bold enough to stand out. In other words, the ideal investment piece.
Please keep reading for our detailed shopping guide.
First, Observe Your Current Furniture Set-Up
There are a few rules for adding a new piece of furniture to an already furnished space. To allow statement furniture to work, here are some guidelines to keep in mind:
- Keep other pieces of furniture smaller to highlight larger pieces
- Go for balance—i.e., items that complement each other while staying opposites
- Find a focal point for any statement pieces
- Keep the overall perspective in mind
- Know which pieces are making a statement—and which are for the background
If you’re struggling to find details that match each other, we encourage you to shop for lucite options, which go with everything. Acrylic is naturally bright yet subtle with its translucent material. It’s easy to fit one of these pieces into an established or new furniture arrangement.
Learn the Benefits of Acrylic Furniture
If you’ve never bought acrylic furniture before, you may be wondering what the big fuss is all about. We’re here to reassure you that acrylic furniture offers a ton of benefits to the homeowner or business person. Acrylic is perhaps one of the best cocktail table materials for your buck.
It’s effortless to clean and maintain, making it a seamless and hassle-free addition to your space. It’s different enough to stand out (think about hosting guests or clients!) but classic enough to blend in and not offend. It’s also incredibly easy to add acrylic pieces into a space that’s already furnished, because it’s transparent like glass.
Finally, acrylic furniture is durable. It won’t suffer the damage of pets at home or sunlight in the office. You can expect your new table to last as long as you take care of it.
Then, Understand the Purpose for Your New Lucite Cocktail Table
With a cocktail end table, the options are limitless.
You can set them in front of couches, next to armchairs, or adjacent to beds. End tables can sit in the center of the living room, in the foyer, or a corner of the office. As the name suggests, you can even use it as a cocktail station in your entertainment room.
What does its usage matter? Well, this primarily lends itself to the size and shape of your piece.
If you’re using it for practical purposes—such as a coffee table—you may want it to be longer and/or wider to accommodate various items. If it’s going to act as an end table in the bedroom, it should be smaller and taller, allowing for easy access. If you’re placing it in the office, consider its job—whether to hold a lamp, charging station, collection plate, etc., or even be purely decorative.

Consider Pre-Made vs. Custom Furniture
Often, when shopping for furniture, buyers forget about a fantastic option they have: to purpose something custom.
Custom work is a remarkable thing—it’s entirely unique to you, and it’s perfectly fitted to match your space. Pre-made furniture is lovely in several situations, but sometimes, yours calls for something personalized. That might be because of a size or shape requirement or just a fun, specific vision you have in mind for the room.
As you shop for a lucite cocktail table, it’s essential to keep this choice in mind!
