The first advice is to think about the function that you will give the stool. Depending on what you want it for, you must choose one type or another.
For example, if you want it as an extra chair for when they go to your house, the ideal thing is to choose folding stools. If you want it as a fixed chair in the bar or island of your kitchen and you plan to have breakfast, lunch and dinner there, it is advisable that the stool has, at least, support to make it more
comfortable.
Another example is that if you want it for your workshop the best thing is a rotary stool and that you can modulate its height. In this way you will work more comfortably and you can adapt it to each of your tasks.

It is necessary to take into account the size of the bar or island where you are going to put it, in the case that it is in the kitchen so you know how many stools you can fit.

On numerous occasions we have emphasized the importance of harmony in a room. For there to be harmony the elements must fit together with each other without this meaning that they have to be the same.
For example, if the decoration of your kitchen is modern, the modern Kitchen Bar Stools that would best fit the set would be of minimalist style, with simple and straight lines. If, on the other hand, your kitchen is industrial or rustic, choose stools made of wood or steel.
4. Types of material
The stools, being such a versatile and functional element can be found in various materials. The choice of material is determined by the place where we are going to place them.

If we want stools for our workshop, these should also be resilient. For example, wood or metal would be ideal.
