If you love hosting gatherings where the food is aplenty and drinks are constantly flowing, you’ll likely find yourself looking into installing a wet bar at your home. No only does a wet bar provide a designated space to host your guests, it’s also a great spot to store, prepare, and serve beverages. You can also store your mixers and cups at a wet bar as well. Since this space will be the hub of your gathering, you’re going to want to invest in a wet bar that is as aesthetically pleasing as it is functionally. Luckily, the experts at AlliKriste have put together a list of some of the most popular custom wet bar design ideas so that you can find the right style for your home. Popular trends include:
A wet bar is designed to be convenient and what better way to make them it convenient than adding appliances under its counter? A popular appliance that is often added is a microwave, which is great if you want to quickly heat up appetizers to keep the party going. Other popular under-counter appliances are wine chillers, beer kegerators, ice makers, and beverage centers.
Speaking of beverages, if you consider yourself a wine connoisseur, it never hurts to design your wet bar to include a specific place to store your favorite wine. Gorgeous wine storage designs, such as a wine library, can make your wet bar appear even more luxurious and can enhance its functionality. When adding wine storage space to your wet bar, remember the following:
The benefits of adding floating shelves to your custom wet bar design provides ample storage that doesn’t take away from you bar space. Floating shelves also have a low-profile design for a sleek, modern appearance. They’re also an elegant way to show of your wine and glasses collection. For a look that really stands out, you can play around with decorative lighting for some interesting effects.
If the counters and cabinetry of your wet bar are painted in neutral colors, opt to include bold colors and patterns in other elements such as the flooring and backsplash. This ensures that the wet bar becomes a statement piece in your home and stands out in a positive way from the rest of the home’s interior.
Chances are your favorite bar has a nice sized TV for watching sports and a great speaker system to listen to your favorite tunes. So, why not bring that atmosphere to your at-home bar? Adding a simple TV to your wet bar or a decent music system can go a long way in turning your bar into the center of the party.
