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
