Why is Customisation Important When Choosing Bar Stools?
Are you looking through 1000’s of bar stools, trying to find the one which matches the design aesthetic of your bar area? Working with Inside Out can help you achieve the style you want, whether it’s subtle or bold. They have a proven track record of finding some innovative solutions to get the desired look.
Creating Your Perfect Piece
A bar stool designed with Inside Outs design team can be customised with many different details, to capture your interior design perfectly. You can create a custom look in a range of fabrics and finishes for seat styles and base styles in the dimensions you want. Add details such as studding or fringing to a bar stool to match your interior design style and make it truly unique.
Share any inspiring images with the Inside Out design team and let them know your preferred finishes. Additionally, show them your interior design mood boards or plans. Once they have this information, their team will begin working on your custom made bar stool design.
Inside Out will collaborate closely with you. Including providing visuals, which include an augmented reality QR code. You can then visualise the appearance of your design.

Counter & Bar Stools with Backs
Inside Out can create almost any seating styles for bespoke bar stools with backs. The details in the bar stools can reflect architectural or design styles in the bar area. The seat’s shape, fabrics, and materials chosen give a bar stool its unique character and personality. The Inside Out design team designs a bar stool that is as unique as your venue and brand.
If we consider the example above, we can see the Sada Bar Stool made for Villa Copenhagen, which offers deep comfort and luxurious style, in keeping with the historical building. In contrast the bar stools below for Saltie Girl captures the variety of flavours of the sea, with the contrasting blue striped fabric, whilst also offering a luxuriously padded seat.

Stools with No Backs
We must remember to consider all the bar and counter stools that have no backs. These tend to feel more informal but you can still create a unique piece of furniture which captures your perfect look. A recent example is the fixed stools for Audrey’s. These types of stools can be a great space saving solution, offering informal seating for busy venue’s.
Using the Inside Out design team means you get vibrant visuals in the fabrics and colours you choose. This means that if you are not happy with your first choice, you can easily change the fabric selection in the design phase. Furniture designs often evolve, as we can see from the below evolution process with the Permit stool. Different colours in the frame and upholstery are tried until the perfect combination is found.

Metal Bar Stools
Inside Out Contract recently provided a bespoke metal bar stool for a high profile event in the UK. The client wanted eco-friendly furniture. So when creating these bar stools, sustainability was an important factor when it came to fabric and material selection.
Bar Tables
Inside Out has made numerous bar and counter height tables, with a range of interesting examples, from subtle to bold. Similar to bar stools, there are 2 core elements that make the bar table what it is; the table base, and the table top. However, you can add lots of different features to a bar table to make it unique.
