Today, a bar counter in the kitchen is considered a sign of “good taste”.
In modern interiors it is used more and more often, giving it additional functions.
There are at least two cases when a bar counter is an appropriate option. They were told by the expert of the online publication TUT NOVOSTI, designer Yulia Tychino.
A bar counter is a compromise solution for a small apartment, most often a studio.
Here it is no longer a matter of fashion, but of practicality and saving space.
In addition, it will not only serve as a countertop, but will also help divide the space, since in studios the dining and kitchen areas are combined.
There are also opposite cases, when the kitchen is spacious enough and in addition to the usual table there is the possibility of installing a bar counter.
This is also a suitable solution if you really want to make such a kitchen.
"Make the bar counter part of the kitchen island. You can install it at one level, raise it or make it a little lower," the expert advised.
A separate bar counter can be equipped with cabinets for storing dishes, small appliances and other kitchen utensils.
