Custom Modern Wood Outdoor Bar

I want a sleek, weather-worthy outdoor bar built entirely from wood and left with a natural finish so the grain stays visible. The overall look should be modern—clean lines, subtle hardware, no ornate trim—so it complements contemporary patio furniture rather than a rustic cabin feel.

I’ll share the exact footprint and height once we connect, but you can expect standard standing-bar dimensions. Your role covers:

• confirming measurements on site
• recommending a durable hardwood that holds up outdoors
• milling, sealing, and assembling the bar with a clear protectant to preserve the raw look
• integrating any practical touches we agree on, such as a simple foot rail, shelves for bottles, or cut-outs for an ice bin

Please have experience in outdoor carpentry and access to the necessary tools for precision joinery and weather-resistant finishing. Before you start cutting timber, I’d like a quick sketch or 3-D mock-up so we’re aligned on proportions.

The final deliverable is a fully installed, ready-to-use modern wooden bar in my backyard, finished naturally and built to last through sun and rain.
