In loft style - a modern approach to design
The same applies to the back. They make them:
- figured;
- straight;

Very important for small kitchens
On high legs
This parameter does not have one constant. Typically, the height is selected under the bar. Here, emphasis should be placed on the height (distance) between the table top and the seat. Standardly it should be about 30 cm.
The height of the chairs is selected under the bar counter
For kitchens with a large useful area, the height of the bar can be increased. Most often it is 100-115 cm. Chairs to it should have a height not lower than 90-95 cm.

Models with two legs - a modern design transformation of a traditional bar stool. Often used in styling. High tech.
This model cannot be called sustainable, therefore I do not recommend buying it to a family where children or elderly people live.
In the overall picture of the style look decent.
Not very stable and comfortable models.
Three legs
Also, like the previous ones, they cannot boast of a high degree of stability. But having the correct shape and location of the supports (legs) are considered better.
Before choosing, especially before buying, I recommend to check the bar stool in practice. Sit down on it, turn around. If you do not feel the imbalance, you can safely take it. At the slightest imbalance, abandon this model.
It is important to first test it in practice.
Four legs
The most reliable, stable and durable. Fit well in the interior. And any of the styles. Have a wide variety of colors.. I will not recommend anything here. Everyone has the right to choose what they like more, to which the soul and heart lie more.
Mini bar with standard chairs
Non-standard leg shapes
Such models in the finished form are sold very rarely. Usually they are ordered personally. But this should also be done for a reason, as they say "from the lantern." Before making a design, consider the form, make sure that it will not disturb you during operation.. It will be firm, secure to stand on the floor. The protruding parts and elements, if present, will not touch your legs while sitting on the chair.
