Project Brief

Three individual mobile bar units have been built by Bar of Thor for the service industry. A number of these units can be placed together to create a larger service area. Different utilities such as; refrigeration, glass wracks, kegs etc can be placed underneath each individual unit. The units can also be placed together to create a fully functional "wet bar". Dimensions of these units are 1.2 metres wide by .6 metres deep.
