Sip in Style: Trending Beverage Spaces That Bring People Together



At DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen we love creating spaces that bring people together. Those unforgettable connecting conversations seem to happen most often while holding your favorite drink, whether a hot coffee or a chilled wine.

The home beverage bar is a trend that we are seeing more and more. The National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) reports that beverage stations, which include wine bars, coffee bars, and smoothie centers, are an increasing trend. The new beverage bar is more than storage it is a conversation area.

Let’s explore some design tips and why you might want to consider adding a home beverage bar.

🍷 Wine Centers: A Touch of Everyday Luxury

Wine cabinets aren’t just for collectors anymore. They’re becoming a must-have feature in kitchens, dining rooms, and even living areas. Here’s why homeowners love them:

  • Showcase Your Collection: Built-in wine racks or glass-front cabinets turn your bottles into art.
  • Perfect Serving Temps: Add a wine fridge or cooler for reds, whites, and sparkling varieties at their best.
  • Integrated Design: Custom cabinetry means your wine storage blends beautifully with your home’s style.
  • Everyday Celebration: Whether it’s Friday night pizza or a holiday dinner, the right bottle is always within reach.

* Design Ideas & Tips:

  • Backlit Shelving: Add soft LED lighting behind your wine display—it makes the bottles glow and creates instant ambiance.
  • Mix Materials: Pair sleek glass with warm wood for a modern yet cozy feel.
  • Bar-Height Counter: Include a countertop for pouring and serving, turning your wine cabinet into a mini entertaining station.
  • Double Duty: Tuck wine storage into a kitchen island or under-stair nook for clever use of space.

 

☕ Coffee Bars: The Daily Pick-Me-Up with Style

Coffee bars are another home trend we’re seeing everywhere—and for good reason. The daily coffee ritual has evolved into a true experience.

  • Morning Made Easy: Everything in one spot—your machine, mugs, syrups, and spoons—keeps mornings stress-free.
  • All-Day Appeal: From cappuccinos to herbal tea, a coffee bar serves everyone’s taste.
  • Stylish Storage: Open shelving, pull-out drawers, and custom cabinetry keep it both functional and fabulous.
  • Cozy Vibes: Add warm lighting, decorative jars, or a chalkboard menu with the “House Specialty” to make your guest feel special.

* Design Ideas & Tips:

  • Hidden Station: Tuck your coffee setup behind pocket doors—open in the morning or for an after-dinner coffee and close when you’re done.
  • Layered Lighting: Combine under-cabinet lighting for function with a pendant or sconce for mood.
  • Custom Storage: Add pull-out drawers sized for K-cups, tea tins, or syrups for a tidy look.
  • Decorative Flair: Display your favorite mugs or use baskets and trays to keep essentials organized and stylish.
  • Beyond the Kitchen: Try placing a coffee bar in a dining room sideboard, a basement rec room, or even a converted closet.

Whether your crew leans toward a bold cabernet or a perfectly foamed latte, one thing’s for sure: dedicated wine and coffee bars are one of the hottest trends in home design right now.

Why? Because today’s homes are more than just places to “hang your hat,” they’re where we celebrate, connect, and create experiences. Having a space that makes hosting effortless (and stylish) is the ultimate upgrade.
