I Keep Thinking About Stanley Tucci's Home Bar Cabinets and the Elegant, Enduring Design Details
Stanley Tucci takes on the fluted trend with his glass bar cabinets, showing us just how impactful and effortless ribbed details can be
Stanley Tucci's kitchen and home bar are extremely well documented, to the point that seeing them come up on our feeds feels like seeing a familiar friend's home. However, there are always new details to take note of and admire, and our latest fixation is his home bar's cabinetry.
The fluted kitchen cabinet trend is on the rise, and Stanley's cabinets make the case for the look with their subtle texture and chic glass material, in ways beyond the main kitchen area.

Colored glassware really has taken off this year, and these fluted glasses are a luxe take on the trend. They'll bring both honey hues and subtle texture to your bar cart.
While not traditional bar cart decor, I always keep a candle on hand. This option creates a cozy, inviting ambiance, housed in a decorative ribbed container. Made with soy and paraffin wax, it burns for around 72 hours, adding warmth and fragrance to the space.
Sleek, timeless, and expertly crafted, this cocktail shaker will help you entertain in style. It features a built-in strainer, a jigger lid with etched measurements, and a double-walled design to ensure your drinks stay cool.
Plus, I am not alone in my observations. 'Stanley Tucci’s home bar shows how simple design choices can make a big impact,' comments Megan Slack, head of celebrity style at Homes & Gardens.
'The fluted cabinetry adds subtle texture, while the matte gray-blue paint provides a clean contrast. Glass fronts and carefully arranged glassware bring depth to the space, creating a look that feels both vintage-inspired and modern. It’s a smart, stylish approach that makes the bar feel inviting as well as functional.'
While cabinet doors like Stanley's are more permanent fixtures, if you want to experiment with the trend, accessories are the way to go. Fluted glassware is an obvious choice, and this set of 4 glasses from H&M is a staple.
Alternatively, this candle from Target would make a delightful addition to any home bar (as well as providing a lovely scent). Keeping with the textured theme, this chrome cocktail shaker by HexClad is the perfect companion to ribbed home bar detailing.
Whether you’re ready to commit to fluted cabinetry like Stanley or just want to try the trend in small doses, these accessories make it easy to bring texture and style to your home bar. A few thoughtful pieces can instantly elevate the space, proving that even simple design choices go a long way. We'll drink to that.
