Bar Charles at
the Colony Club

Bar Charles at Detroit’s historic Colony Club carves an intimate corner into the building’s grand Louis XVI style interior. The space seamlessly blends formality and hospitality, exuding a sense of opulence while remaining warm and inviting.

Substantial walnut doors with amber stained glass insets welcome guests into the bar. A softly rounded walnut paneled bar spans the center of the space creating a stunning focal point and creating pleasant pockets of seating groups where guests can gather. A marble inlay mimics the curve of the bar and creates a dramatic contrast from the deep hardwood floors.

The deep blue of the coffered ceiling creates a dramatic backdrop for a series of antiqued brass chandeliers that softly illuminate the space while Tiffany lamps and a series of bar lamps create intimacy with their warm glow. A channel back banquette in a chestnut leather sits beneath silky upholstered wall panels and is nestled into a cozy corner niche while a series of bar height pub tables are sprinkled throughout the space, their tambour wrapped bases and marble inlaid tops creating a pleasing rhythm.
