Beverage Centers That Make a Splash

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have a place in your home where your favorite beverages were always waiting for you and you could sit back and admire its craftsmanship and design? If this concept whets your appetite, consider the latest interior design trend: beverage centers.

“Beverage centers have become increasingly popular for many reasons,” says Mary Gordon, vice president and director of marketing at InSite Builders & Remodeling. “One is that a beverage center draws guests away from the middle of a busy and congested kitchen into a second area that's perfect for conversation and gathering. They have become extremely popular, too, as coffee centers.”

We picked the best we’ve seen and asked the designers to share their tips and techniques on how to recreate each look.
