The most stylish place to get a drink in town will be your own home.
Let's face it: If there is any space in our homes that has flourished over the last few years, it's the home bar. This room has become our go-to spot for unwinding after a long day with a glass of wine or a dirty martini. Luckily, there may be no more fun space to design than a home bar. Because they're generally small in size, home bars can be great spaces to go all out with color and pattern, from coating the cabinetry in an unexpected color with a high gloss finish to covering the walls in a statement wallpaper.
And because they're designed with unwinding in mind, home bars also make for great spaces for shaking things up and embracing a new style, from classic and preppy to rustic and woodsy. Once you settle on your style, you'll want to make sure you stock your home bar with chic cocktail glasses of all types—pick one that works best for your beverage of choice, or one to suit the style of your new entertaining space.
Whether you're finally ready to upgrade from a bar cart setup to a full-blown home bar, searching for the perfect paint color for your home bar, looking to add an indoor version of your outdoor bar space, or simply looking for creative small space design ideas, these home bar ideas from the country's top designers are sure to inspire. Cheers!
