Stone Kitchen Island Under Timber Pergola
At night, glowing pendant lights provide lighting over a stone kitchen island with a fire feature, situated beneath a timber pergola on concrete slab paving beside a post-and-beam mid-century modern home.
Design notes
Mid-century outdoor kitchens are low, linear and flush with the house. Look for a single long counter of concrete or terrazzo, teak or slatted cabinet fronts, a flat roof or beam overhang for shade, a breeze-block backdrop and bar stools in bent steel. Keep everything on one line and let the pool and lawn beyond be the view.
What to look for
- The work triangle — grill, sink and fridge within a few steps
- Ventilation: a hood, an open gable or clear sky above the grill
- Where guests sit relative to the cook
