BARS
LOCATION of bars in resorts are mostly seen in the

restaurant itself or near the pool or the other water element

of the project depending on the design .
There are two typical types of bars in a resort an OPEN
BAR or a CLOSED BAR or even we get to see both in some
projects.

rs are designed as per the capacity of the people coming in it at its peak
the case of designing bar in a resort the segregation of spaces in it as w
e ambience it creates should blend with the surroundings.

e components of a bar is as explained below:

Bar cabinet
Stemware rack
Back bar
Bar counter

Circulation
/activity zone

costumer activity
zone

Standard sizes which are followed in the planning of bars are:

e storage space in bar is usually one for the liquor bottles which is displa
e bar back known as bar cabinets in shelves and the other for the liquor
ch are kept in the storage under bar tops and on stemware racks.

Seating or the cocktail table arrangements in the bars are :

DISTANCE B/W TWO

PEOPLE 16 TO 2
RADIUS OF THE
SITTING ZONE 26 TO 3

 Types of shapes are adapted while designing bars which is

according to the
space for it . They are L-shaped, U-shaped, octagonal, angular,
straight, round

APPROPIATE BAR DESIGN FOR OUR OWN PROBLEM

In a resort ,small,
functional but a lavish
bar is preferred.
This could be attained by
choosing the circular
shape of the bar beacause:
- it covers less area
- it looks much more
elegant.
- provides more sitting

SITTING NEAR THE BAR TOP IS KEPT AS 1/3 OF THE TOTAL

CAPACITY OF THE BAR INCASE OF THE CAPACITY RANGING
FROM 20-30 PEOPLE .
IF THE BAR CAPACITY IS LARGE , THEN TABLE SITTING IS
INCREASED WHILE SITTING NEAR THE BAR TOP IS KEPT FROM
10-15.
