Methacrylate furniture, also known as acrylic furniture, became popular in the 1970s due to a combination of cultural, aesthetic, technological and functional factors. Methacrylate (or acrylic) was a relatively new material, coming into wide use in the 1950s and 1960s. By the 1970s, the technology for producing and molding it had advanced considerably, allowing modern, minimalist shapes to be created with ease. . This material offered a transparent, light and resistant appearance, making it ideal for innovative designs that broke with the norms of traditional furniture. Furthermore, the 1970s were marked by widespread interest in the future and technology, due to the impact of the space race and scientific advances. Methacrylate, along with other plastic materials, was associated with this futuristic vision, since it symbolizes a break with traditional materials and the past. It should also be taken into account that, in Italy, furniture design led innovation at the time, and brands like Kartell began to experiment with plastics, including methacrylate. Designers such as Gio Ponti and Joe Colombo promoted the use of this material, integrating it into iconic furniture that became emblems of the time.
