How to choose the appropriate bar stools,let's bagin from below steps:

• 1.Take measures

Take note of the height of the counter or bar where you plan to use them. Get this number by measuring from the floor to the top of the counter.Most bars and counters fall within standard height ranges. Standard kitchen counters are 36 inches high, and standard residential bars are 42 inches. Standard counter stools and standard bar stools are designed for these heights.Another measurement you need is the length of your counter or bar. Combined with the width of your chosen stools, this measurement determines how many stools will fit comfortably in your space so people can get in and out of their seats easily. For 16-18-inch seats, leave 6 inches between chairs. For seats 18 inches or wider, or if the stool has arms or swivels, leave 8-10 inches.

• 2.Choosing the style.

Stools backs vary, and the type of back has a large impact on the look and feel of the stool:

No back: You can slide backless stools under the counter, but they are less comfortable for long periods of sitting.

Back with a lip for support: The lip section can be barely there or up to mid-back.

Fullback: These are the most comfortable, especially for sitting a long time.

Stool style is also influenced by the presence or absence of arms, whether the seat or back is padded, and whether the stool is stationary or swivels.

Take a look at your overall design theme where the stools will be, and decide whether you want to match or contrast.
