It was quite mad dash tearing it all down. We had some last minutes visitors on a Saturday with movers coming the following Friday. With that said, moving across country isn’t easy. Settling into new jobs and looking for house- we were ready to have a place we could call our own. After a couple months we found a mid century 3 bedroom rancher. In a similar fashion to the apartment, we decided we would make the primary bedroom into the new lounge. The space is much larger at 13x21’. The vanity sink would make a great back bar as it was conveniently located outside of the restroom. It took a couple of months to get started since we had lots of other house things to get situated first (a lot more work than an apartment!). We tore out the sink and installed a new one along with a fridge. Painted the entire room submarine gray with one part of the ceiling being a very low reflective black paint called Musou black. We have some different theming ideas for some parts of the room. We did recently hang several of our original lamps and almost have 1/4 of the room ready- will certainly post pics once it’s worthy. A few before and after pics below.

The black ceiling will mimic a night sky. Hopefully making the ceiling appear much higher

The actual bar area will have a submarine theme. The utility sink we installed was perfect. The most difficult parts were tearing out the old sink and drilling a hole in the new stainless steel for the glass rinser.
