The World's Most Beautiful Bars by Peter Martin

The most beautifully designed cocktail bars from across the world, with interviews from the designers who created them.

Beautiful Bars is a stunning photographic journey through the world's most beautifully designed cocktail bars, told through interviews with the designers who created them. From New York and London to Buenos Aires and Hong Kong, all are united by incredible interiors, seminal design and cultural impact, captured through lavish, large-format photography.

Interviewees include Martin Brudnizki, designer of Annabel's and Italy's Hotel Splendido, and David Collins Studio, who created the legendary Connaught Bar and Cafe´ de Paris Monte-Carlo. From the French Riviera's Casino Royale Palm to Korea's award-winning Zest Seoul and Mexico's immersive Tlecan, Beautiful Bars is the definitive visual bible for all those interested in era-defining design, timeless photography - and the good life.

The introduction to Beautiful Bars is written by the design journalist Peter Martin. Threaded with insights from hours of interviews with famous bar designers and legendary mixologists, it examines the history of the cocktail bar, the cultural impact of cocktails from the Jazz Age to the 1990s revival, and the vivid, globally exploding bar scene of today. Throughout the book, stunning photography is accompanied by insights and commentary on each bar.
