What better place to add some color to the home than, well, the most fun room in the home? If you’re lucky enough to have a home bar — or even a small bar area — consider brightening things up with some vibrant accessories, counter stools, tiles, or artwork. It’s called happy hour for a reason, after all. Find inspiration in this collection of in-home bar areas featuring playful, chic color choices.
The horizontal graining of the spectacular blue "Azul do Mar" quartzite echoes the subtle striations of the bleached walnut cabinetry of this bar area by Tucker & Marks for a San Francisco high-rise.
