Designing the Ultimate Feature Bar: The Magic of Acrylic Couture

An intimate bar setting creates a cosy, relaxed backdrop within many hospitality fitouts and is often central to the patron experience, leaving a lasting impression long after they have left the space.

Not just confined to hospitality venues, residential design has also embraced the home bar experience. From rustic man caves showcasing sports memorabilia to sophisticated entertaining spaces, the home bar has become an increasingly popular feature.

Designing the Ultimate Feature Bar: The Magic of Acrylic Couture

For premium bar installations, Acrylic Couture offers a stunning range of panels with a selection of decorative inlays to suit a variety of design styles.

Acrylic Couture achieves remarkable three-dimensional visual depth by allowing the inlays to flow freely within the resin. This effect is particularly striking along the polished edges, transforming them into a design feature in their own right.

For feature walls, joinery and bar applications, ambient lighting is often essential to achieving a dramatic result. Acrylic Couture can be illuminated from either the face or the edges, eliminating the need for complex backlighting installations while helping reduce overall project costs.

Used in this home theatre, Acrylic Couture creates an artistic feature while providing ambient lighting throughout the room. The drinks cabinet also takes advantage of the material’s optical visual, creating the appearance of floating shelves that beautifully display the collection of bottles.

Fiocchi Gold features metallic flakes suspended within the acrylic, creating a striking sense of depth and movement. The effect changes with the light, making each viewing angle slightly different.
