Behind Bars

Design for Cafés and Bars

Anneke Bokern, et al.

Once no more than gathering spots with domestic interiors, cafés and bars have evolved into places for relaxation where people go to escape the monotony of everyday life. Seen in this light, the design of a bar's interior is crucial: it's a setting that has to stir the senses, generate a great atmosphere and help create an unforgettable night out.

The 40 innovative projects featured in Behind Bars: Design for Cafés and Bars are proof that more and more designers rely on high-tech solutions to produce a look geared to these demands. Their interiors not only demonstrate a high level of creativity and variety but also push the limits of style, theme and materials. The result is one spectacular space after another. Each café or bar in the book is accompanied by quality images, floor plans and a full description based on an interview with the designer. Behind Bars is an inspiring compilation of today's trends in bar design.
