About this collection
Outdoor Kitchen Islands, explained.
The island is the centre of gravity in an outdoor kitchen: it holds the grill, hides the storage and gives guests somewhere to lean. These designs range from compact grill islands to long stone-clad bars with seating on the far side.
Compare the working side with the social side — the best islands keep the cook facing the party, put the sink within reach of the grill, and leave a generous overhang for stools.

- The work triangle — grill, sink and fridge within a few steps
- Ventilation: a hood, an open gable or clear sky above the grill
