2. Soft Blue and Wood
Designer Stephanie Frees of Plain and Posh replaced a clutter magnet of a kitchen desk with this beauty of a home bar in Hinsdale, Illinois. The main kitchen is neutral wood and white, so Frees and the homeowners decided to infuse the bar area with a bit more color. The wood gracing the wall is knotty alder, and along with brass hardware and beverage refrigerator shelves it warms up the soft blue-gray cabinet paint (Solitude by Benjamin Moore).
