Design Your Outdoor Space with an Alfresco Kitchen and Bar
An outdoor kitchen and bar can transform your garden into a social hub for summer evenings.
To make it feel like an extension of your home, coordinate outdoor furnishings with your interior style, using complementary colours, textures, and materials.
Add cosy touches like cushions, throws, and outdoor rugs, and bring in plants and greenery to enhance the natural vibe.
Stylish lighting, such as LED spotlights or lanterns, creates a warm, inviting atmosphere, ensuring your alfresco space is perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
Must-Have Features:
Built-in BBQ or pizza oven – The centrepiece of any alfresco dining experience.
Outdoor bar – A dedicated space for mixing cocktails or serving wine creates an effortless entertaining spot.
Comfortable seating – Lounge chairs and dining sets in weatherproof materials ensure a stylish, functional space.
Ambient lighting – Lanterns, string lights, and soft outdoor lamps add warmth and charm.
