Designed around your home

A kitchen that belongs outdoors.

Start with what you love to cook and how you like to gather.

A useful outdoor kitchen needs more than a place for the grill. Preparation space, serving areas, storage and circulation should work together. We connect those decisions with the existing patio, planned appliances and the utility work the project may require.

What we can plan together

Plan the whole cooking experience.

Choose the features you will actually use, then develop the layout and construction scope around them.

01

New Outdoor Kitchens

Develop a new cooking and preparation area with the placement, work surfaces and connections considered as one design.

02

Existing Kitchen Updates

Review an existing island or cooking area for new finishes, improved storage, replacement appliances or a revised layout.

03

Grill & Appliance Planning

Coordinate the exact appliance specifications, access and manufacturer installation requirements before finalizing the enclosure.

04

Counters & Serving Space

Allow for food preparation, setting down dishes and serving, with guests and circulation considered alongside the work area.

05

Outdoor Storage & Finishes

Discuss exterior-rated cabinetry or storage, island finishes and work surfaces for the proposed outdoor exposure.

06

Utilities & Trade Coordination

Review gas, electrical and plumbing needs when applicable. Define specialist work, approvals and responsibility in the agreed project scope.

Materials & details

Built around the setting and the way you cook.

Outdoor selections need to be considered as a complete system, from the enclosure and countertop to the exact appliance model.

Island & Countertop

Coordinate the supporting construction, exposed finish and work surface with the appliance installation specifications and intended exposure.

Storage & Hardware

Discuss products intended for outdoor use, useful access to stored items and access panels needed for service.

Appliances & Layout

Confirm models early. Clearances, ventilation, connections and service access are reviewed against manufacturer instructions and applicable requirements.

Our outdoor kitchen process

From first idea to the final detail.

Clear decisions at each stage help keep the layout, materials and construction connected.

  1. 01

    Plan the cooking area

    Discuss the meals, appliances, storage and gathering space you want, along with the existing patio or yard.

  2. 02

    Confirm selections & feasibility

    Review appliance specifications, layout, finishes, utilities and applicable approvals before confirming the construction details.

  3. 03

    Coordinate the build

    Sequence the agreed preparation, specialist trade work, island construction and selected finishes.

  4. 04

    Walk through & hand over

    Review the completed scope, access points and product care information. Follow the appliance manufacturer’s operation and maintenance guidance.

Scope & investment

Start with a clear plan for the work.

A compact grill island and an outdoor kitchen with several appliances involve different levels of construction and coordination.

Pricing is prepared for your property and selected scope. Discuss the priorities, allowances and exclusions before making final decisions.

01

Layout & construction

Island size, supporting construction, preparation space and the condition of the existing patio shape the building scope.

02

Appliances & finishes

Selected appliance models, work surfaces, exterior finishes, storage and hardware affect materials and installation.

03

Utilities & approvals

Existing connection locations, new service needs, related trade work and required approvals influence the project sequence.

Clarify these items in your proposal

  • Removal and site preparation
  • Materials, quantities and finishes
  • Utility work and specialist trades
  • Permits and approval responsibilities
  • Access, cleanup and restoration
  • Exclusions and change approval

Frequently asked questions

Useful answers before you begin.

Can I remodel the outdoor kitchen I already have?+

Yes. We can discuss the existing layout, finishes, storage and appliances to establish what can be updated. The condition and compatibility of the existing construction and utilities must be reviewed before confirming reuse.

Can an outdoor kitchen include a sink or refrigerator?+

These features can be discussed as part of the design. Product suitability, water, drainage, electrical connections, service access and any approval requirements need to be reviewed for the specific property.

Can you use appliances I have already selected?+

Share the exact models and specifications during planning. Suitability, required clearances, connections and installation details must be reviewed before they are included in the final layout and scope.

Do outdoor kitchens require permits?+

The answer depends on the project and jurisdiction. Utility connections and associated construction can require permits even when the surrounding patio does not. Confirm the applicable requirements before work begins.

Can the kitchen and patio be designed together?+

Yes. Coordinating the two helps establish preparation space, dining, circulation and utility routes in one plan. They can also be discussed as separate phases where the site and scope allow.

Planning a project in Kirkland or Bellevue? Requirements depend on the site and scope. Review the City of Kirkland permit guidance ↗ and City of Bellevue permit guidance ↗, then confirm what applies to your property.
