If you’re a regular reader ((And if you’re not, you should be!)), you have probable already seen my previous renders of our home bar and maybe even the pictures of the near-end result.
A thing missing is that the bar was built with elements in my interior design program. In reality, though, it is built using IKEA crap. This means some things are a bit off, and the top part of the bar proved a bit harder to make nice.
After a bit of thinking things thru – around half a year of thinking – we came up with this solution: a folded piece of sheet metal with a wooden top. Here’s a bunch of renders:
The original drawing:
Reality 2.0:
Here’s the new render; the bottom now corresponds to the reality and the back is the new idea.
The back is supposed to be in one piece; this is what we think of (with the bottom removed):
And from the side:
The shape of the holes near the bottom are not set in stone, nor is the shape of the cut-out for the beer tap. The metal-only part looks like this:
The three cut-outs in the metally part allows later adding more cut-outs in the wood for future expandability of the tapping capacity.
