Home Bars
If you want a sleek solution that perfectly matches your space, you can go for a built-in home bar or a bar that perfectly continues the style of the space. This is usually a piece composed of the same cabinets as you have in the kitchen, with plenty of storage, built-in lights and mirrors, drink coolers and all the necessary stuff. You may hide this bar with a sliding door or some other doors or keep it visible depending on the space where you place it. an under stairs home bar with a built-in storage unit and a fridge, open shelves, shiny tiles and built-in lights

Bar Carts/ Units
If a large built-in home bar requires too much space or money, you may go for bar cart or a credenza as a bar. What you need first is a credenza, a sideboard or just a table to store the bottles, shakers, glasses and all that stuff you need. Add some fun signs, chalkboards, marquee and neon lights, clocks and other decorations that seem appropriate to you. You can actually give any style to your mixing station using wall decals, appliques or other decorations like that. If you are tight on space, go for some creative storage like a high vertical sideboard, or a credenza with drawers for everything you want.
