I’m a firm believer that a counter chair is not just merely a place to sit. A counter chair, or bar stool, if you will, can be a sculptural statement piece that turns that kitchen island or outdoor patio bar into something far more than just its functional self. I’m waxing on about counter seating as I recently agonized over just the right counter chairs for a soon to open coffee and wine bar here in Pasadena. Upholstered or not, back or no back, the choices are endless. So On Madison, your ever intrepid style detective, has put together some of our favorite counter seating solutions that will have you sitting pretty.
