Our client is a popular blogger in the grilling space. He hired us to create the dream grilling backyard: a large deck with an epic outdoor kitchen. The outdoor kitchen area was to have:
It was a great project. With our design, our client achieved an outdoor cooking and entertainment space that will provide enjoyment and added home value for years. Check out our renderings of the dream griller’s deck and outdoor kitchen.
The outdoor kitchen includes pretty much everything a grilling aficionado could want, including a grill, smoker, and pizza oven. We tailored the kitchen to our client’s needs and preferences, ensuring enough space and functionality to grill, cook, and entertain guests.
Of course, an epic outdoor kitchen needs a dining area, so that’s included adjacent to the spacious outdoor kitchen. We built a customized dining area that is the perfect spot to enjoy meals outdoors while taking in landscaping views.
A dream deck design wouldn’t be complete without a large lounge area with sofas and a firepit. While the outdoor kitchen area is covered, the lounge is not covered for maximum sun enjoyment. Whether for socializing or unwinding alone, we build customized lounge areas outdoors, creating an inviting oasis for letting in the fresh air.
Usually, a deck looks enhanced with a swimming pool. This design is no exception, so we added a pool to the griller’s dream backyard. Whether for exercise, play, or entertainment, this pool design creates the ambiance of a private resort.
Careful planning is critical when designing an outdoor kitchen to meet your needs. An ideal designer in Vancouver will listen to your needs, translate your vision, and deliver a high-quality, customized outdoor cooking and entertaining space you’ll enjoy for years.
Careful planning is essential when designing an outdoor kitchen to maximize the space. Larger patios can accommodate L-shaped designs, while smaller areas may only fit one or two cabinets and a grill. A fully equipped outdoor kitchen contains four key zones:
Planning for necessary utilities like electricity, gas, and water is also important. Additionally, incorporate comfortable seating and a sturdy dining table to entertain guests. Bar-height seating is great for casual gatherings around a TV.
Creating a budget and sticking to it is crucial when designing an outdoor kitchen, as costs can quickly escalate and affect the project’s timeline.
Consult with professionals first to understand the full scope and estimated project cost before finalizing the budget. The budget should include line items for elements like:
Summers in Vancouver are short and partly cloudy, whereas winters can be long, wet, and very cold. When designing an outdoor kitchen, aim for a space you can utilize year-round, not just in summer.
Sustainability is valuable in interior designing. A designer needs to incorporate protection against elements.
When designing an outdoor kitchen, carefully consider the quality of the materials used. Choosing durable, weather-resistant materials is vital to withstand the elements better and have a longer lifespan. As designers, we look for the following attributes:
Your designer should pick premium quality, outdoor-rated materials. While it often results in a higher upfront cost, it pays off in the long run through years of reliable performance and less need for replacement.
When selecting appliances for an outdoor kitchen, focus on items that support your typical cooking style rather than getting caught up in unnecessary fancy gadgets. For instance, you likely don’t need an expensive oven to grill foods and make broth mostly. However, multiple burners would be valuable for simultaneously cooking different dishes.
Professional designers select equipment and non-furniture items, like appliances, to ensure your investment provides practical functionality rather than just flashy features.
Are you dreaming of combining your ideas with the top design trends? Creating an outdoor kitchen requires research, creativity, and knowledge to build an outdoor oasis perfect for entertaining, adventurous cooking, and added storage. Our outdoor kitchen design services provide careful planning to fit the design and budget requirements of Vancouver homeowners.
Space is one of the elements of designing, and a proper layout maximizes the available area, whether a patio, deck, backyard, or rooftop. Space is one of the main elements of design.
We will examine the outdoor space and suggest an appropriate layout. Likewise, we can customize these layouts for any outdoor area.
Whenever we design outdoor kitchens, our plans emphasize functional zones: cold, hot, wet, and dry areas. We strategically place furniture, fixtures, and equipment for a smooth workflow between refrigeration, cooking, cleaning, and prep. The functional design also covers plans for necessary utilities like electricity, gas, and water access.
A well-designed layout allows cooking, cleaning, prepping, eating, drinking, and mingling. We do proper zoning and amenity placement, which balances functionality and aesthetics. These are our other ideas:
Cabinet hardware, colors, and materials let you incorporate your desired design aesthetics and styles. The suitable materials blend form, function, and longevity to achieve your ideal stylish, durable outdoor kitchen.
