Vallone Design

More than ever, homeowners are setting up personal environments for entertaining in the comfort of their own homes. So enters the newest “wish list” item, the indoor/outdoor Bar. A popular spot at many of the local restaurants including our personal favorite, the bar at El Chorro Lodge, renovated and redesigned by Vallone Design and Candelaria Design in 2009/2010. A retractable window system to open the space and serve from the interior bar accommodates everything from an elegant evening cocktail party to a casual afternoon BBQ.

To bring in a vintage vibe to a modern-day concept, the black cabinetry and Neolith top are complimented with antique mirror, iron shelving and leather wrapped handles. The raised white oak bar gives warmth to the space. A bar with this aesthetic calls for a mix of vintage and modern styling. A little whimsy off the masculine vibe, we used two Icelandic Sheepskin Acrylic Bar Stools and the Kelly Wearstler Affinity Lamp. The Exterior bar showcases modern woven barstools from Kettal. Spirits to make the perfect Old Fashioned are displayed alongside beautiful cut crystal decanters and glasses. The Painting by Michael Carson plays into the vibe and the wall Sculpture by Holly Wilson, was too amazing to not feature.
