Did you know you could maximize your living space by adding an outdoor kitchen?

When it comes to Los Angeles renovation projects, we find that many clients weigh their options between expanding their current living space with a home addition vs. adding an outdoor kitchen design. I’m sure you can imagine that adding an outdoor kitchen is much less of an investment than an addition to your home…but, there is more than just the benefit of saving on your estimate. Outdoor kitchen designs allow you to incorporate style, design, and convenience into your backyard.

HERE ARE A FEW PRO-TIPS ABOUT WHAT TO EXPECT WITH AN OUTDOOR KITCHEN DESIGN:

● Custom outdoor kitchens might consist of wine chillers, ...
... under-counter refrigerators, pizza ovens, wet bars, fireplaces, side burners, smokers, warming drawers and even roasting spits.

● Not much space is needed to install an outdoor kitchen, the space just needs to be functional for cooking, entertaining, and relaxing.

● Something to consider when planning your outdoor kitchen is the proximity to the indoor one.The more convenient this kitchen is to your indoor one, the less travel for items such as seasonings, utensils, dinnerware and food items.

● Also, having an attached, covered outdoor kitchen can extend the length of time you can use this new food preparation and serving area.
