Omaha Drive, Burr Ridge IL
This beautiful bar is part of a basement renovation in Burr Ridge, IL. With an upscale pub as inspiration, this is not your average bar! Each piece was custom designed to an exact shape and purpose, taking advantage of every inch of this smaller space. We varied the cabinet heights and depths to keep each space unique and added glass and mirrors for a classic look.
Talora cabinetry was chosen, in a rich cherry wood. The stain is Café Mocha, and a Black Glaze was added for even more depth. A traditional raised panel door style is used, featuring a lovely small cove detail. Custom wood panels wrap the whole lower area, in keeping with the sophisticated pub look. Topping off the look is a heavy traditional crown molding. A rich, earth-tone granite pulls together the different colors in the space, and features an oversized Ogee edge on the bar area. The palette is completed with the backsplash tile, adding another bit of sparkle.
To keep this a full-serve area, we have included a kegerator, an ice maker, a mini fridge, and a dishwasher – all hidden behind decorative panels! Finally, with a built-in microwave, built-in TV, the hidden trash unit, and the lovely bar sink, this space is perfect for hosting any get-together.
The wood tones continue through to the wine pouring cabinet, and on into the wine cellar, creating a rich and warm gathering and entertaining space!
