Small home bars can be a statement piece! White painted with black glazing custom cabinets separate the design from the dark-wood kitchen. Wood block countertop against the black matte petite subway tile continues the Scandinavian design style. Black painted plumbing pipe and custom floating shelf that matches cabinets completes the look of this small dry bar.

Scandinavian Kitchen Remodel

Mosaik Design & Remodeling

This 1972 NW Contemporary home had great potential from the start with interesting architecture and West Hills Portland location with mature landscaping. The kitchen and powder bath lacked style and needed serious updating. From the cramped layout and closed off feel in the kitchen to heavy texture and original 1970’s décor in the Powder bath, it was time for a change. The main wall between the kitchen and Family room was removed and the kitchen entry was widened which made the kitchen feel more integrated and brighter. All existing hardwoods and dark 70’s brick in the Entry were replaced with 4” natural white oak hardwoods, which further connected and updated the kitchen and adjacent rooms. The new kitchen layout gave way to a large island and more useful storage and a better flow. The “Sea Serpent” blue on the island is complemented with the stained Alder and white for a fresh element. Open cubbies in Alder cubbies and white Kanso mosaic tile from Ann Sacks grouted in black all add interest to this warm, clean-lined Scandinavian vibe for this young family.

Completed in 2020, this large 3,500 square foot bungalow underwent a major facelift from the 1990s finishes throughout the house. We worked with the homeowners who have two sons to create a bright and serene forever home. The project consisted of one kitchen, four bathrooms, den, and game room. We mixed Scandinavian and mid-century modern styles to create these unique and fun spaces. --- Project designed by the Atomic Ranch featured modern designers at Breathe Design Studio.

Mid-Century Modern Wet Bar

Remodel Boutique

A single-story ranch house in Austin received a new look with a two-story addition and complete remodel. This wet bar serves as a space for guests to make coffee or a refreshment zone when hanging out or working upstairs. The floral print wallpaper was specifically chosen as a tribute to the patterned wallpaper throughout the original home.

All of the finishes in this lower level bar area were milled over and paired up to give a relaxed vibe with a traditional flare. The dark stained wood and light brick do the trick :) The vinyl faux wood floor is family friendly while still adding warmth to the lower level.

Scandinavian Home Bar Design Ideas

A Scandinavian 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 a Scandinavian 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 Scandinavian 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 Scandinavian 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.
