Take some time to measure your space to understand the seat height that you need - a rough guide is a 20-30cm gap between your countertop and the seat. Generally, a kitchen island bench is 90cm high and you would need a 66cm seat height. If your kitchen bar bench is 100cm plus you would opt for a 75cm seat height.
On a very practical note, ensure the measurements of the bench will work with the barstool you select. While many measurements are standard, both with bench heights and barstools, the tape measure should still come out to ensure the stool will both fit and be comfortable to use. Consider the back of the chair too- do you want a back or are you happy with just the seat? How will the back of the seat height impact the look you’re trying to achieve?
It is easy to get carried away with style ideas when shopping around or looking for inspiration but it’s important to remember the space that you are buying for. Would bright and vibrant suit your home or a wooden, rustic style? Is your home decor modern and contemporary? A minimalist’s dream? A classic, traditional style, or other?
There are a diverse variety of materials used in our barstools from wood and metal frames to fabrics, vegan leathers, and rattan. For durability and long-lasting opt for a vegan leather or a performance fabric. Timber and rattan are also good options and can create a sense of warmth. We want materials to withstand the use they will receive- and when it comes to barstools, that can be often. We also want them to be in keeping with the look we’re trying to achieve. Each material lends itself to a particular style and adds another layer to the overall feel. For a harmonious space, you can try to reference an existing piece of furniture, such as a timber stain or rattan used elsewhere in the space. For the stool to become the real “hero”, it might require a bold choice, such as leather not found anywhere else in the room.

When deciding on the number of bar stools that you need an easy guide is to allow for approx. 70 to 80cm per person when working out how many kitchen stools you can fit along your island bench. This allows a person to be able to sit comfortably and have space to enjoy their meal.
One of the biggest quandaries when selecting barstools is deciding if they should seamlessly work with the other pieces of furniture in the room or if they should sing to their own tune (while still working stylistically within the space). As they’re seen as an extension of the kitchen, it can be helpful to use that as a starting point rather than the rest of the room. You can then reference the material or style of the barstool by adding smaller pieces in the adjacent room- such as a leather ottoman, a rattan bowl, or a timber side table. You never know- the barstool may be the catalyst for a whole new interior design direction.
