Acrylic Couture puts glass in a whole new light

From Austaron Surfaces comes Acrylic Couture – an all new way of creating beautiful and sleek surfaces for interior projects.

Acrylic Couture puts glass in a whole new light

Acrylic Couture is glass in a whole new light. This unique surface allows for the creation of intoxicating effects for interiors through extravagant inlays and artistic colour combinations.

Through a unique interplay of the finest in acrylic glass and exclusively selected materials from Milan, designs infused with Acrylic Couture create an unprecedented appearance of depth and designer magic. With hand selected quality and ethically acquired resources, the highlight for the senses is achieved through unique nanoparticles within the acrylic glass.

When paired with natural or artificial light, this extraordinary material composition makes it possible to achieve intense luminous effects. Playful light installations, sleek reception areas, striking feature walls and more can be created using this material and technique.

The surface has been utilised within the luxurious Amonti & Lunaris Wellness Hotel, located in scenic South Tyrol in Italy. Surrounded by beautiful mountains and snow in the winter, the hotel spans a massive 5,000 sqm and offers its guests an elegant and inviting place to stay.

Acrylic Couture was selected to finish the main reception area’s cabinetry, with a certain salience that very few other surfaces can compete with. An addition of lighting that illuminates the acrylic glass and reflects the encased metallic material ensures for a dramatic design statement that gives off an immediate sense of luxury.

For Amonti & Lunaris, Acrylic Couture also extends to the front of the bar cabinetry in the sky bar to create a true sense of opulence. With the addition of LED lighting accompanying the material, the space becomes an elegant glowing feature in the evening.

Available in Australia through Austaron Surfaces, Acrylic Couture is available in a range of patterns and colours that can be applied to endless project possibilities. Designed and manufactured with cross-linked polymers for higher resistance to scratching, Acrylic Couture comes with a 10-year guarantee on UV resistance and weathering plus a 30 Year Interior Guarentee. It’s little wonder this unique material is making waves in interior design the world over.

Acrylic Couture is available in Australia thanks to Austaron Surfaces.

Dipped in integrity: The profound depth of Aeron Chair’s extended palette

Aeron Chair’s new shades, Nightfall and Jasper, arrive with a sense of quiet cohesion – no bells and whistles, no loud technicolour; just two timeless, perfectly versatile near-neutrals. But the new hues aren’t just about colour – and their significance is much more profound than their surface-level subtlety might suggest.
