The Great Room Pour Bar

This custom wet bar is where function meets flair—and where the party naturally gravitates. Designed to sit perfectly between the kitchen and the great room TV area, it’s equal parts hardworking and handsome.

I mixed rich black cabinetry with warm wood tones, echoing the kitchen’s double islands for a seamless, intentional flow. The countertops match the kitchen as well (because cohesion matters), but the backsplash switches things up—adding texture and pulling in colors from both the kitchen and the nearby fireplace tile for a layered, custom look.

With 10-foot ceilings, this bar doesn’t just reach new heights—it embraces them. Enter the rolling library ladder, making the upper cabinets both practical and a total showpiece. Brass hardware and a statement faucet add just the right amount of polish, while glass-front cabinets keep barware on display and ready for action.

Whether it’s cocktail hour, game night, or a quiet nightcap while the TV’s on in the great room, this bar is always open.
