An outdoor kitchen can mean anything from a small built-in grilling station to a wall of cooking and prepping space for your guests. Some outdoor kitchens are fully equipped kitchens with all the kitchen necessities.

The right outdoor kitchen will complement your home design style with the right finishing touches to match. These outdoor décor ideas will surely spark some inspiration.

Modern poolside kitchen

Complete your pool area with an outdoor kitchen bar space overlooking the pool, creating an unforgettable view every time. Think of simple, neutral colours that blend in with the overall design of your pool deck, still fitting the aesthetic of your home design.

Semi-outdoor kitchen

This idea creates a seamless indoor-outdoor kitchen feel, where you are not fully indoors or outdoors. A good sliding door can help make the illusion pretty well.

Depending on your climate, a fully outdoor kitchen isn’t always desirable. For durability, use weather-resistant outdoor furniture, and choose neutral colours to match the interior.

Wood-fired oven

Who doesn’t love a freshly baked pizza, especially one baked from your very own unique wood-fired oven? Adding a wood-fired oven to your outdoor kitchen will take your culinary skills to the next level.

Imagine the aromas from your outdoor wooden fire oven wafting through your backyard. Pair with a tiled backsplash with vertical wood veneer slats that match the same tones as your outdoor décor style.

Add ambient lighting

Light your outdoor kitchen with ceiling lights and an oversized chandelier to create a formal entertaining space. Incorporate a variety of lighting options, to evoke a cosy ambience in your outdoor kitchen space. This will not only brighten up your area, but they will also set the perfect mood.

Small balcony kitchen

Not everyone has a backyard or a house with a large outdoor kitchen area. If you’re an apartment dweller, you can also have your unique outdoor kitchen catered to you and your space. A built-in grilling station can be the start to creating your very own outdoor cooking area, something small and intimate.
