I have this thing for secret passages and hidden doors. But what fascinates me most about them is what they are hiding. A short cut to another room, a staircase that leads to another floor, or how about a bar! Depending on what is hidden behind these doors you may not share that secret. When it comes to a bar, I doubt that is the case.
The hidden bar by Miles Redd is like a gift wrapped in the best paper! With its mural treated walls the door to this hidden bar is sure to trick a few and then it doesn't stop there. It's like a jack-in-the-box with its high gloss painted interior, its well-stocked bar, and what I am certain is a fridge behind that lower door; all of which draws out gasp after gasp after gasp.
This vintage library card file holding bottles of wine is giving me goose bumps. It's the kind of photograph that causes you to run around your home trying to find a place where you can have one of your own. And I'm envisioning the leather bound book that keeps a well-cataloged record of what wine is in each drawer AND, AND a place in the book to adhere the wine label after a bottle is enjoyed with a short snippet of how we enjoyed that bottle.
This great design by Walsh Hill Design presents art panels installed to slide left and right that reveal a glorious hidden bar right next to this Maine residence's kitchen.
Celerie Kemble never disappoints with her impeccable flair for well designed tropical interiors. These pocket doors hiding a bar are genius.
And last call (pun intended) - this Hadley Wiggins design in a New York apartment that beautifully responds to the challenge of fitting all the details into a limited space. I'm not sure if the interior doors and back wall are covered in fabric or wallpaper but I'll take either because it's perfect either way.
Happy hour is at 4! Cheers! Prost! Sante! Slainte! Cin! Cin! Be inspired!
