As fall approaches, there’s a natural instinct for people to gather together. A home bar with plenty of countertop space for food, drinks and seating is where the crowd tends to gather. Additionally, the bar can be a place for you and your significant other to unwind after a long week. With a few sensible selections, this private space will transform into your go-to hosting room.
“Exotic granites are an excellent countertop choice for this space,” said owner Cory Kroger. These one-of-a-kind stones from Brazil and India are composed of unique minerals and colors particular to those regions; the composition is stunning, becoming a work of art for your bar. Kroger adds, “Consider a continuous look with the same granite as a book-match from the upper bar to a lower seating area. This gives one consistent, unique finish throughout the space.”
All-to-often forgotten during the design process, is choosing great lighting to compliment your design aesthetic and granite selection. Pair the light switch with a dimmer to set the mood for parties or quiet nights at home. When it comes to plumbing, “The best sink to accommodate all granites is a stainless steel under mount sink. They complement the stone, are easy to clean and create a seamless line of sight for the client,” Kroger suggested.
