What type of window is being used for the bar? - I've been looking for a bar window that opens to 90 degrees or more but can't find anything where the hinges support the weight. Thanks. »
Lands End Development - Designers & Builders Thanks for the question. Sort of tough to see from the picture, however it is not a window that is opening it is just a wood shutter. We ordered hydraulic hinges that assist in holding it up when desired, and when it closes it latches shut and just looks like a large red shutter.

Make a destination bar without leaving home. Have a gardening shed or other outbuilding? Deck it out with a place to perch, stock it with your favorite drink-making supplies and invite a few friends over, and you will soon forget it was you who mixed that cocktail!
Like the way this bar window opens up - this is what I envisioned as a wide "arms and elbows out" opening to the exterior shelf. Only question is how to do it with windows vs. solid wood that's levered up.

Focus on the fireplace. So much of what happens at the cabin is centered around the fireplace. Be original with the stone. To create a tumbled, organic look, have your stone mason recess the grout so that the fireplace looks to be dry stacked. A raised hearth creates extra seating and a place to store firewood.
