Studio Collective has designed some of the most iconic bars and lounges in hospitality: The Spare Room and Teddy's at the Hollywood Roosevelt, The Bungalow (Santa Monica, Huntington Beach, Long Beach), the bar at Hotel Figueroa, Giada's bar at the Cromwell Las Vegas. Every one of these spaces makes you want to stand at the bar, order a drink, and stay longer than you planned.

The Bar Cart is a 42-page digital guide to designing a home bar that does the same thing — for your guests, for your parties, for your Tuesday night. It covers:

• The Location — where the bar goes — and why the corner of the dining room is almost never the right answer
• The Hardware — glassware, tools, surfaces — what you actually need vs. what barware catalogs want you to buy
• The Bottle Strategy — the 8 bottles that can make 50+ cocktails — a selection philosophy, not a shopping list
• The Lighting — every great bar has great lighting — the guide shows you how to light yours so people gravitate toward it
• The Styling — how to arrange bottles, glassware, and tools so the bar looks beautiful when it's not in use — which is 95% of the time
• The Hosting — how to set up the bar for a party so guests serve themselves without chaos — the layout that works

Includes: a printable bar inventory sheet, a cocktail menu template for parties, and a sourcing guide for glassware and tools at every budget. This is the bar design thinking from The Bungalow, The Spare Room, and Hotel Figueroa — distilled for a home.
