Today, bar counters in the apartment are extremely popular. This piece of kitchen - and not only - furniture is unusually beautiful and extremely comfortable. The bar counter can very successfully replace a banal kitchen table, serve as a partition between the living room and the kitchen, decorate any, even the most sophisticated interior, and become a functional additional piece of furniture.
The do-it-yourself bar counter is especially good in that it gives the home master the absolute opportunity to implement the most daring design decisions. A variety of building materials and design options for bar racks allows you to build a very peculiar piece of furniture that is fully consistent with the needs and tastes of the owners of the apartment.
A modern bar counter with your own hands does not always represent a place intended directly for placing glasses and various drinks. In most cases, it carries a multifunctional load, is equipped with additional shelves, drawers, awnings, can serve as a dining and cutting table.
Every home craftsman who is thinking about how to make a bar counter on his own should know several rules, the observance of which will allow you to create a really beautiful and comfortable interior item. First of all, the rack should be in harmony with the main furniture, not only in color and texture of the material from which it is made, but also in style. For example, wooden bar counters will not look too good in an ultramodern kitchen made of plastic, and a bar sparkling with nickel and richly flavored with all kinds of metal elements will not work for a classic kitchen . The tabletops of the main kitchen furniture and the bar counter itself must be made of the same material, because it depends on how well this unique piece of furniture fits into the general concept of the room.
Do-it-yourself bar counter can be not only open, but also closed. Open racks for a bar are simpler to execute, because they are a worktop mounted on high legs. In closed versions, the support is a cabinet, which can be either deaf or equipped with doors, behind which shelves for storing all kinds of
kitchen accessories are hidden
. Such a bar counter with your own hands requires, of course, more skill and patience from the home master, while at the same time it allows you to intelligently and functionally use the useful area of the room.
Usually racks for a bar are placed either along the wall, or serve as a continuation of the main kitchen furniture. They are also quite often installed as a delimiter between the kitchen and the living room. Do-it-yourself bar counter is very convenient, which is located in the center of the kitchen, but this requires a rather large area of the room, which, unfortunately, not all modern kitchens can boast of.
In all other respects, what the bar will look like depends on the imagination of a homemade craftsman who can make it not only classic, but also in the most intricate form, equip it with all kinds of modern appliances and decorate with the corresponding decorative elements.
