Bar Design
The counter isn't a table. It's the set.
Counters in fine wood, handcrafted and modular, that speak to the venue rather than impose on it.
Modular, elegant, personalised.
Made entirely in high-quality wood, with real craftsmanship. Composed around your guest count and the number of bartenders. Available finishes: mirror and quilted. And personalised with the couple's logo or monogram, so the bar becomes part of the event's design.
A model for every space.

Presence is part of the experience.
Not just bartenders: people who bring the bar to life the right way. Certified professionals, fast and elegant, discreet and attentive. The dress code is coordinated with the theme, the venue and the vision of the event.

How to choose the right counter
The question is not which counter looks best, but which one works in your space. Three things decide it: how many guests there are, how long the service lasts, and where the bar sits in relation to where people will be standing.
As a rule of thumb, a single station serves around a hundred guests well for an aperitivo, or around eighty for a long open bar where people drink continuously. Above those numbers a double station is worth it: not so much to serve more, but to avoid the queue in the twenty minutes when everyone arrives at once.
The rest is aesthetics, and there the choice is yours. Mirrored finishes catch the light and work well outdoors in the evening, when the bar becomes a bright point in the garden. Capitonné is warmer and suits villas and historic interiors. The smooth finish is the most neutral: it disappears and lets the venue speak.
Where to place the bar
This is the decision that most affects how the evening goes, and it is almost always underestimated. A bar tucked into a far corner stays empty; a bar on the main walkway creates a bottleneck exactly where people need to move.
In our experience the right spot is a few metres off the main flow but visible as soon as you enter the space: guests see it and go, without having to look for it and without getting in anyone's way. We work this out beforehand, on site or from the venue's floor plans.
What the venue needs to provide
Our counters are modular and assembled on site, so no special access is needed for transport. What we actually need is little: a reasonably level surface, a reachable power socket and, where possible, a water point nearby. If there is no power at the chosen spot we can solve it, but it is worth knowing in advance rather than on the morning of the event.
For outdoor events some cover is needed in case of rain: less for us than for the spirits and the safety of the electrical setup. Most Tuscan venues already have a plan B, and we check it together during the site visit.
