Kitchen Remodeling Industrial Style

NK Construction And Design Inc

The old house had been lovingly restored, with each room carefully renovated to bring it into the modern era. However, the kitchen remained a glaring reminder of its former state, with worn cabinets and outdated appliances. The owners knew that something had to be done to bring the heart of the home in line with the rest of the house. After much consideration, they decided to gut the kitchen and start from scratch. The outdated cabinets were replaced with sleek, modern ones that matched the overall tone of the house. Industrial-style appliances were chosen to give the kitchen a contemporary feel while still paying homage to the house's history. As the renovations progressed, the kitchen began to take shape, each new addition breathing life into the once-dreary space. The owners were thrilled with the results, the industrial-style kitchen a perfect fit for the rest of the house. The once forgotten room was now a vibrant, functional space that served as the heart of the home. With its clean lines and modern amenities, the new kitchen seamlessly blended with the rest of the house, completing the renovation. The owners could finally take pride in every corner of their beloved home, knowing that no detail had been overlooked.

Industrial Home Bar Design Ideas

A industrial home bar can provide a spot of indulgence for one, or be a central hub you gather round when entertaining. Whether you’re thinking of planning a wine bar, outdoor bar, or just making room for a bar cart, browse these images for inspiration, and ask yourself the following questions.

Where should you position your home bar?

The most popular location for an industrial home bar is in or near the kitchen or dining room. If you prefer entertaining outdoors, however, an outdoor bar can be a dream addition to any Aussie backyard – and imagine the luxury of swimming up to your very own pool bar! If you're building from scratch, a landscape architect can help you work out the ideal design for your space.

What type of home bar is best suited to your needs?

Home bars come in all shapes and sizes, and with an array of practicalities. Utilise an awkward corner with a cabinet bar; maximise floor space with a trunk bar, which unfolds to create a bar counter; or conveniently turn any space in your house into a bar room with a mobile bar such as a fun bar cart. If you prefer a more grandiose option, or all the amenities of a real bar, you can’t go past a built-in industrial home bar.

What home bar functionalities do you want to include?

Decide how you will use the bar and whether you will need sinks, storage and refrigeration. Including a sink in your industrial home bar design is a practical addition if you choose a location far from your kitchen. If you’re a wine connoisseur, you may want to include additional wine storage, whereas a mini bar fridge within the kitchen may need no extra storage at all. Home bars that will be used infrequently – perhaps an outdoor bar in the cooler months – may not need refrigeration and could suffice with large ice buckets.

What bar furniture will you need?

Seating is essential to any home bar and will impact the style of your home bar design. Bar stools, for example, come in an array of materials and styles, from traditional wooden bar stools, to resort- and industrial-style stools. Storage is another important element, so look for a liquor cabinet and wine racks. Next, if you are creating a freestanding station, you will need a bar table, which are taller and shallower than regular dining tables. Check that your stools and table height work together before you finalise any home bar designs.

How can you personalise your bar design?

Bar tools and accessories are an easy and interchangeable way to personalise your bar design. You may want to create a wine bar, tavern-style bar or retro bar, so look for wine glasses and tumblers, for instance, that will help carry this style. Coasters, bar mats or signage will help you to further achieve your desired look.

Drink and Meal Prep Station

Away from the main circulation of the kitchen, the drink and meal prep station allows for easy access to common amenities without crowding up the main kitchen area. With plenty of cabinets for snack and a cooler for drinks, it has you covered!

Striking & Nostalgic Home Bar

Chervin Kitchen & Bath Inc.

The perfect place to lean in for a good conversation with friends or swivel around to watch the big game on the big screen in the lounge behind you, this basement bar is a true tribute to rustic design and nostalgia. A candy dispenser, lots of exposed shelf space, and a wide, varnished wood counter gives you plenty of space to keep the treats you love handy and on display. Seating for 6-8 creates a welcoming environment, but the wine cellar nearby will have everyone up and out of their seats in no time, admiring the integrated wine barrels and old-world charm.
