About This Design
Warm Transitional
We converted the space beside the staircase into a bar niche by enclosing it with frameless glass panels and lining the interior with walnut shelving and LED strips. The classical bust elevates it beyond functional wine storage.
Design Tip
Use a classical bust on the top shelf of a bar niche as the visual anchor. It prevents the niche from reading as a functional wine cabinet and elevates the overall design quality of the staircase landing.

Spatial Approach
The bar niche occupies the full height of the wall beside the stair run, enclosed with glass so the staircase and niche read as one vertical installation. Stair treads and walnut shelving share the same wood family.
Best For
Straight-run staircase landing in a home where the adjacent wall space is large enough for a purpose-built glass bar niche, used for daily bar access and as a decorative display visible from the living area.
