Would you like to enjoy an aperitif or a glass of wine in the evening or perhaps host a cocktail party for friends? OneLiving room baris sure to offer a pleasant stay for your visitors and gives every celebration a special and interesting character. The options for setting up your own home bar at home are varied and actually easy to implement. Let our ideas inspire you.
Living room bar – modern and multifunctional at the same time
There are no limits to your imagination when it comes to choosing the best location and design for your own bar. If you have a comfortable corner couch in the middle of the room, you can set up your home bar around it. You can easily integrate the counter with the right tables or benches. A lower counter can also be converted and used as a table or storage space.
Living room bar in different designs
Bar tables are available in different dimensions, heights and models. Set up your living room bar individually and according to your own taste. A bar counter like the one in the picture is stable and looks minimalist, subtle and chic. With stools that match your existing furnishings, nothing stands in the way of a relaxing evening with your family or friends.
Living room bar adapted to the individual living style
You can position a bar counter anywhere in the room. What do you think of a free-standing bar counter opposite the TV, where you can watch an interesting film or the next exciting football game with friends? The appearance of the material is precisely selected, making the bar look like a natural part of the home environment.
Set up a bar under the stairs
You can also skilfully use the free space under your stairs for a bar. Design the wall as you wish and attach shelves for the glasses to the wall. You can use cabinets of the right height both as a bar counter and for storing and storing drinks bottles and glasses.
Rustic bar counter
If you have a kitchen island, you can just use it as a bar counter. If you want to highlight the bar counter and give it a more rustic look, you can use a sturdy wooden board with an irregular shape and bring a touch of loft style to your living room. Of course, any other material that you like and fits the rest of the furniture can be used.
Simple bar counter with a modern look
A bar counter can also look very decorative. The bar counter in the picture only consists of a horizontal and a vertical plate and was attached directly to the dividing wall between the living and dining area. Thanks to its slim line, it takes up hardly any space and does not change the open concept of the room.
Add colorful accents to the room
You can also attach a space-saving living room bar directly to the wall or to a shelf. You can use almost any shelf as a bar shelf for storing spirits and bar accessories. If you want to change the look of your room, the bar counter can be the piece of furniture in the room that provides the color accent in the interior.
Accesories
The right equipment for your living room bar enables cocktails to be prepared and creates a homely bar atmosphere. Of course, the various bar glasses and spirits should not be missing and must be within reach. If you don't have a bar cabinet or bar shelf, you can arrange bottles and glasses on a dresser and store them under the bar counter. You can also present the glasses stylishly with an open cabinet.
Bar shelf as wall decoration
With an illuminated bar shelf on the wall, you can create a great corner in your living room and take the feeling of being in a real bar home with you. Depending on the size of the bar shelf, you can display the bar glasses, store the bottle or present your collection of different shot glasses.
Bar decoration ideas
If you have an unused niche in your living room, you can also use it to set up a great bar, which is separated from the rest of the room and can be decorated according to your own ideas. For an atmospheric ambience, you can decorate the wall with pictures or posters or why not make it unique with your favorite cocktail recipe.
Living room bar with a difference
Your living room bar doesn't necessarily have to consist of a bar counter and stools. A small folding table with a serving tray on top offers space for the required bar equipment and can be positioned anywhere in the room. A comfortable hanging chair instead of a bar stool doesn't look like a real bar, but it creates a great feeling.
Design the counter to match the furnishing style
You can also use a mobile serving or bar cart to place the drink bottles, glasses and ice cube tray, which also looks very attractive and is practical. Regardless of the style in which you want to set up your home bar, every single element can add beautiful accents to the room. How about a built-in closet for storage that doubles as wall decor?
Elegant minibar trolley
This chic and elegant minibar trolley is suitable for rooms that don't have much space and can be placed wherever your guests are. The elegant, golden design and decoration on the trolley allow you to serve your guests like in a classy restaurant.
Design the bar with chalkboard paint
In a room with an integrated cooking and dining area, you can also convert part of the work surface and use it as a counter. For example, use chalkboard paint to give the wall a decorative coat of paint and maybe write down different recipes on it or even give your bar a name.
Bar counter with mirror
If you have attached the bar counter to the wall, you can visually enhance it with a mirror and ensure an unrestricted view. This means your visitors can also watch the cocktails being mixed and nothing stands in the way of nice, long conversations.
Chic and functional bar furniture
If you don't want to put together your home bar yourself, you can find beautiful and comfortable bar furniture on the market in endless designs that meet your needs and promise a perfect cocktail evening. Thanks to the footrest, you can make yourself comfortable and relax on the bar stool.
