A well-designed home bar creates a focal point in your living room while serving its purpose in compact spaces. You want to achieve form, function, and durability, especially since apartments do not have the unlimited floor space that a house provides. Royale Touche laminates provide a variety of finishes and colors that can be used in home bar spaces for visual appeal and durability at home.
High Gloss Laminates Project a Chic and Reflective Ambiance
High gloss laminates such as Crystal White or Pearl Grey are the best choice for a compact home bar that needs to keep the space looking open and bright. Royale Touche High Gloss laminates can be applied to home bar counters, drawer parts, and shelving units to bounce light, making a small bar feel larger and bright. A smooth shiny surface adds a luxurious modern feel of chic style to your living room while being easy to clean and less prone to scratches when keeping the area clean and neat.
Wood-Finish Laminates Project Warmth and Comfort
If you prefer a home bar style that gives an inviting and cozy feel, wood-finish laminates such as Teak Brown or Honey Oak will give natural warmth and timeless appeal. Wood-finished laminates would work well for cabinet panels, bar countertops, and walls behind the bar area. The moisture and scratch resistance provides functionality to store glassware and bottles securely or to finish a decorative wall. The textures of the wood-finish laminates would work well in a modern or traditional living room style.
Stone and Marble Laminates for a Lustrous Option
Laminates that look like stone or marble in Ivory Marble or Grey Granite will give a sense of luxury to your compact, in-home bar. You can use Royale Touche Stones and Marbles laminates for the countertop surface and/or the cabinetry shelving accents giving you the look of luxury natural stone without the maintenance. This ocean inspired look would create a memorable impact for your compact living room bar, while adding to your overall interior design. Laminate finishes can withstand spills and stains to offer durability within your home bar or entertainment area.
Super Matt Laminates for Unsophisticated Elegance
Super Matt laminates in Soft Beige or Matte Grey are an option for wanting decor without shine for a more reserved look. Super Matt is a perfect finish for bar cabinetry or displayed shelving. Royale Touche Super Matt finish laminates will beautifully blend into your living room without competing with other colors and materials. Matt finishes are also scratch resistant, durable, and easy to maintain, making it perfect for small spaces that are utilized often, while maintaining a more subtle sophistication.
Textured and Fluted Laminates for Interest
A textured or fluted laminate like Stone Grey or Woodgrain Taupe can add dimension and character to your compact bar area. Royale Touche Textured and Fluted laminates can be displayed on your cabinets or the wall panels behind the bar making pattern, rhythm, and visual interest while not overwhelming the living room. Textured laminates provide tactility in your bar area while gifting the room a luxurious experience having the bar area feel even more enhanced while keeping the overall aesthetic together with your living room.
Combination Laminates for Maximum Impact
The best compact home bars will utilize a combination or multiple finish and color options. A Crystal White high-gloss counter can be mixed with Teak Brown wood laminate cabinetry and Stone Grey textured panels or an Ivory Marble shelf all within the same area! By mixing laminate finishes and colors, homeowners get to personalize their own compact home bar area to complement a larger decorating scheme in the living room. This all helps you create the home bar working in tandem with the rest of your design features and always stores away easily if needed.
