Outdoor kitchens: everything you need to design a convivial outdoor space

by Leonarda Martimucci 08 Aug 2025

The kitchen is no longer just an indoor space: in recent years, more and more people are choosing to bring conviviality outdoors , creating fully equipped kitchens in the garden, on the terrace, or under a porch. Outdoor kitchens are not a passing fad, but an innovative way to enjoy the outdoors, combining style, functionality, and the pleasure of shared time.

In this guide, we'll guide you through designing your outdoor kitchen with practical ideas, select products, and tips to make every outdoor space unique.

Define the kitchen area: comfort and functionality

First, consider where to position the kitchen : close to the house for easy access to gas and water, or in a more secluded area to create an “oasis” effect?
Choose an area sheltered from the wind , well ventilated, with a light covering if possible (pergola, gazebo or canopy).

Domus Habitat selects modular outdoor kitchens and compact barbecues that are perfect for small spaces or urban gardens.

The heart of the project: barbecue or full kitchen?

You can opt for a simple barbecue or an outdoor kitchen equipped with a stove, sink, storage compartments and perhaps an outdoor fridge.

In our shop you will find:

  • Professional gas and charcoal barbecues (Ompagrill, Fogher, Sunday)

  • Wood-fired ovens for pizza and bread (Alfa Forni, Clementi)

  • Modular units to create real outdoor kitchens

Durable materials and consistent design

An outdoor kitchen must be weatherproof , but also beautiful to look at. The ideal materials are:

  • Stainless steel : hygienic and durable

  • Porcelain stoneware or stone : for elegant and robust worktops

  • Treated wood or teak : for a natural and warm finish

All the outdoor kitchens offered by Domus Habitat are selected to stand the test of time and maintain their aesthetic appeal.

Coordinated outdoor furniture: create a welcoming environment

An outdoor kitchen needs a convivial space for eating and relaxing . Pair the kitchen with:

  • Weatherproof dining table

  • Comfortable and stackable seats

  • Warm lights or LED lanterns

  • Waterproof textiles (cushions, outdoor rugs)

Complete the environment with a touch of style: natural outdoor fragrances , aromatic plants, natural materials.

Make room for outdoor conviviality

Designing an outdoor kitchen is an investment in quality of life : a space where you can cook, entertain, relax, and create memories with loved ones. Choosing the right furnishings and accessories is essential to making it truly functional and long-lasting.
