What do all the best interior spaces, with respect to in-home entertaining, always have?
Is it a surround sound or immersive home audio system? A theater? A game room?
Yes, but not only that – they all have a home bar that’s well-stocked and appropriately arranged with tasteful, and practical, home bar furniture.
Here are just a few suggestions to help make sure your home bar is set for success.
The Bar Itself
While you can operate your home bar from a bar cart (more on that in a moment), the best way to create an immersive experience is with a fixed bar.
Either have the bar built into the design of one of your living spaces, or else get a high-quality hardwood bar delivered to your home so you can arrange it where you like – and move it if necessary.
Bar Cabinets
Unless you have cabinets and racks built into the design of your home around the bar, mobile bar cabinets will afford you the space necessary to organize and serve.
Choose a high-quality hardwood bar cabinet that compliments the color and character of your bar, and one that has plenty of space for your necessaries, including but not limited to glasses, mixers and mixing accessories, bar tools, cleaning accessories, garnish, and other refreshments.
Bar Carts
While a bar cart can serve in lieu of home entertainment for a bar, it’s best utilized as a supplement, and not as a replacement, especially for large gatherings.
For instance, if much of your company is not gathered in the immediate vicinity of the bar, or if you need to deliver, a bar cart can be indispensable for shuttling liquor and ingredients so you can serve guests, preparing their drinks wherever they are – or ahead of time, and then delivering them.
Seating: Bar Stools
The final touch, in terms of home bar furniture, is seating, which naturally takes the form of bar stools, which are part and parcel of any home bar.
Get a few swivel stools that are of appropriate height for your bar, and which match the aesthetic of your home bar as well as the rest of your furnishings.
The Extras
Once you have the bar, along with storage and seating, accounted for, you can turn your attention to the extras, such as lighting, decorative fixtures, bar tools and accessories, signage and decor.
Lighting is a big one, and more than any other element will impact the feeling of the immediate setting. Opt for accent or mood lighting, or task lighting such as overhead pendant lights of an appropriate color temperature that will cultivate an appropriate atmosphere for your entertaining.
