This repurposed grand piano gives an entirly new meaning to the phrase “piano bar!” While I strongly oppose gutting a working or salvageable piano (which is, of course, how I feel about despicable typewriter “key cutters”), if a piano is beyond repair, repurposing it into a bar is a marvelous idea, as created by Retreat Design.
The hammer box was gutted to create a storage space for bottles, an ice bucket, and glasses. In the body of the piano, the strings were replaced with wine storage racks, creating a true bar from top to bottom. Now it’s possible for us to have a piano bar in our homes!
