So, if you're in the mood for dining al fresco and cooking outdoor to entertain throughout the summer months, let us walk you through the process of designing your own outdoor kitchen space in great detail. Unlike indoor kitchens, there are a few design concerns you must keep in mind. Get them right, and you'll soon have a pleasant new room in your house that adds value to your garden and keeps your friends coming over all year.

Factors to consider for an alfresco outdoor kitchen design



When planning an outdoor kitchen, the first and most crucial factor to consider is the location. The optimal position for an outdoor kitchen surrounding your home is determined by a number of criteria, including:

The space available in your backyard - if you don't have much space, you’ll need to utilise whatever space is available.

How frequently you intend to use it - if you plan to use the kitchen for meals and entertaining throughout the year, we recommend placing it as close to the house as possible.

Which way the wind blows – this may sound unusual, but you'll want to place your outdoor kitchen in a location where the prevailing winds don't sweep smoke and kitchen smoke back into the home.

If you have a garden or other scenic elements in your backyard, you may want to plan your kitchen so that it does not impede the view.

What size do you want your outdoor kitchen to be?



The size of your outdoor kitchen will be the next decision you make. This will be determined by criteria such as:

How many people you plan to entertain - the number of visitors you anticipate cooking for will affect not just the capacity of your kitchen but also the area of the entertainment space surrounding it.

Your budget — constructing a kitchen from the ground up and outfitting it with the most high-end alfresco open air culinary systems may be costly, so make sure your designs are within your means.

Choosing enduring materials for you outdoor kitchen



Because your outdoor kitchen will be exposed to often-unpredictable environmental elements, it's critical to construct it out of robust and long-lasting materials. Consider the following:

Work surfaces can be made of stainless steel or granite.

Cabinetry – sturdy doors are made of glass or stainless steel. Treated woods certified for outdoor usage are an alternative.

Other flooring surfaces include: Structural Porcelain Pavers with a stone-look that help to handle oil, food, and alcohol spillage. There is no need to seal these pavers, and there will be no permanent stains.

Choosing alfresco appliances



If you do not already have water, gas and electricity connections available in your outdoor kitchen then it will affect your plans regarding how you choose your appliances and how many you need. You may need to rely on a gas bottle and extending connectors from inside the house if you don't want to extend your existing connections. Your appliances may be restricted to a grill and a bar fridge only, in this situation.

On the other hand, if you choose to go 'all out' with your outdoor kitchen design, the possibilities of alfresco appliances are endless, with everything from a stainless steel canopy rangehood to a built-in BBQ with hood to a full-sized refrigerator. These are all options you can consider if you have the necessary room.

The selection of appliances is the next phase in your outdoor kitchen design. Although it's easy to get caught up in the aesthetics of materials and finishes, it's critical to focus on the usefulness first.

A basic alfresco outdoor kitchen has a barbeque, sink, and an outdoor bar fridge, but there are many other items you may wish to include in the space. A rangehood, pizza oven, smoker, deep fryer, or hotplate are all popular choices.

However, because your barbeque is the hardest-working equipment in the room, do your homework before purchasing one. A huge 6 burner barbecue, such as the 6 Burner Built-In BBQ + Hood from Euro Appliances, is excellent for large groups or even a romantic evening for two.

How many extra facilities do you need?



The quantity of modern amenities you install is mostly determined by how elaborate your outdoor kitchen will be:

Installing gas heating or a fire pit will provide warmth and comfort if you plan to cook outside during the cooler months. Ceiling fans and mist sprayers, on the other hand, are perfect for hotter regions.

If you plan to cook and enjoy at night, lighting is a must. Task lighting over work and traffic areas, ambient lighting to illuminate a specified seating and gathering space, and accent lighting for visual flair are all important considerations.

Furniture - even if you're outside, you want your visitors to feel at ease when they're seated. Fortunately, there is a wide choice of high-quality outdoor furniture constructed of sturdy materials, which are suitable for all weather situations, accessible these days.
