New Venetian Gold Granite kitchen with a firepit and mixed reflective glass to match!!!! Now THAT is custom!

What a great finish to a nice project that's been been ongoing since the end of spring.  Here we have a custom 20 x 18 foot paver patio that was missing something!  What we did to maximize the space, and the grill/bar footprint was combine them all together so that not only could the kitchen area be a place to grill, but also a place to eat, sit by the fire, and relax!

The bar ledge which goes entirely around the back side seats about 10 people and we added about 2 feet of prep to the left of the grill.

What makes this unique from a lot of other featured on this outdoor living blog is that we decided to not try and contrast what was happening with the the beautiful paver flooring, but rather keep the base simple with an outdoor rated stucco, but make the top of the kichen/bar area POP with a New Venetian Granite top and some beautiful reflective matching fire pit glass.

What do you think!!!!

Refined elegance in outdoor cooking!!!!! Simple, but sweet!!!!


When we planned this custom outdoor kitchen we wanted elegance and power and that is exactly what we accomplish.  In a small space we were able to combine the natural elements of the custom paver patio with a complimentary cultured stone product, topped it off with New Caledonia granite - and put the E7660i diamond echelon engine to make it GO!!!!!! Complete with a viewing window for a closer look at this gourmet outdoor chef's food of choice on the grill.

When I help design and plan these outdoor kitchens we try and take in account everything we can so that the with the space we have, we maximize its final look.  Enjoy a peek into this elegant outdoor living space!
