The Setup
This wet bar is part of a big, multi-room project for a family of four that also included a new mudroom and a primary bath remodel.
The existing family/playroom was more playroom than family room. The addition of a wet bar/beverage station would make the area more enjoyable for adults as well as kids.
Design Objectives
- Cold Storage for craft beers and kids drinks
- Stay with a more masculine style
- Display area for stemware and other collectibles
Design Challenge
Provide enough cold refrigeration for a wide range of drinks while also having plenty of storage
The Renewed Space
By incorporating three floating shelves the homeowners are able to display all of their stemware and other misc. items. Anything they don’t want on display can be hidden below in the base cabinet roll-outs.
This is a nice addition to the space that adults and kids can enjoy at the same time. The undercounter refrigeration is efficient and practical – saving everyone a trip to the kitchen when in need of refreshment, while also freeing up plenty of space in the kitchen fridge!
