The best outdoor kitchen design will depend on how much space you have, where you live, and what you plan to use it for. Here are some ideas to consider when designing an outdoor kitchen.

But what about storage options? Here’s how to incorporate them into your outdoor kitchen design.

If you have limited space, you might need to think about using a freestanding island instead of a built-in one. This allows you to add more countertop space without sacrificing any storage. You can also choose between a freestanding sink or a built-in sink. A freestanding sink is easier to clean than a built-in sink, so it’s better for people who cook often.

Add Shelving

Adding shelves to an outdoor kitchen design will help you organize your food items and keep them out of sight. It’s also a good idea to use clear glass containers rather than opaque ones. Clear glass lets you see what’s inside and makes it easy to find things when you’re not looking at the container directly.

Create an Island

If you want to add storage space to your outdoor kitchen, consider adding an island. An island adds extra countertop space and gives you more room to cook and eat. You can choose between a freestanding island or one that attaches to the side of your grill.

Build a Bar

A bar is a great addition to any outdoor kitchen. It’s also a great place to store food and drinks. You can build a bar out of wood, metal, or concrete. Choose a material based on how much weight you expect to put on it.

Install a Wine Rack

If you plan on having guests over often, consider installing a wine rack. This will allow you to easily access bottles without opening them.

An excellent experience from start to finish. David is very experienced in terms of site position, planning, seeing potential problems and finding good cost effective solutions. Dale and Dean were a pleasure to have working on site. As a family, we love our outdoor kitchen and cannot recommend it enough. The blinds and pivoting roof makes it a useable space for all seasons. I wouldn’thesitate to recommend David and his team to anyone.

I think sometimes, projects like this can be so overwhelming. Although, with David’s advice and wealth of knowledge, he was able to advise and help to design our outdoor kitchen which catered for all our needs and requests and all within our budget too. Thank you!

All about outdoor living came to see me and produced some amazing ideas, after getting the quotation and drawings I was pleasantly surprised it was in my budget. The workmen who carried out the job were clean and hard working, I can highly recommend this company for doing what they say they will do. Thank you David for overseeing the project and making the whole process comfortable for me.
