Patricia B. Warren, AIA Warren Architecture, LLC We renovated the Kitchen within the existing space, which is only 11 ft. wide. Starting from the left (as seen in the photo) the distance from the wall to the island cabinetry is 3'-1". This area is just for circulation and the bar stools. The island cabinetry is 2'-3" deep. The space between the island and the cabinetry along the wall to the right (outside the frame of the photo) is 3'-7" wide. This is a bit tight, especially if more than one person is trying to work in the Kitchen. But we were constrained by the existing space. I solve the problem of "too many cooks" by letting my husband cook, and I sit at the bar stools and have a glass of wine! I do have to do the dishes later, though.

How far does the counter overhand on this bar? »
· Comment · 15 months ago
Patricia B. Warren, AIA Warren Architecture, LLC The deepest overhang is 15". The mesquite top is reinforced underneath with a 3/4" thick underlayment of baltic birch plywood. This was inset into the mesquite, for a total thickness of 1 1/4". It is very solid. The cherry "skirt" around the edge of the countertop is decorative, not structural.

Nancy Simmons What is the overhang of the top countertop around the sink area? Is there an industry standard for this or did you pick/specify the amount?

What Houzz contributors are saying:
We haven't even touched on height options! There's bar height, whereby the seat is generally 29"-31" high, while counter height puts seats between 24" and 26". Basically, counter-height stools are best for bars the same height as your kitchen counters (35"-37"). If your bar area is taller, say 41"-43", you need a bar stool. Whew! This image illustrates the difference in height; the barstool sits beneath a higher counter, while the portion of the counter used for prepping and cleaning is a bit lower.
