Landscape architects frequently work with homebuilders in the Las Vegas Valley to create outdoor gathering places that can be used all year round.
An outdoor kitchen becomes a hub of activity as a sculpture of industrial art and weatherproof food preparation center.
In addition to concrete, finished stonework, and wood, modern outdoor kitchens come with stainless steel appliances embedded and molded into a wide variety of hospitality features. In most custom designs, the cooking and entertainment complex is centered around the hooded grill. The cooking tools for the host will be placed within reach, making it easy for a chef to prepare raw meats, fruits, and vegetables.
The bar, food preparation, and beverage creation areas usually require an integrated sink, refrigerator, and multiple outlets for appliances that blend drinks and sauces. As guests share the food transformation experience at the bar, so they are able to interact with their hosts.
A gazebo, drop-down screen, or a rooftop overhang protects the dining area from the changing desert weather. These outdoor gathering spaces are usually located near the outdoor kitchen.
In the summer, fans and misters can circulate the air; in the winter, radiant heaters, fire pits, and fire tables can bring warmth to a cool night.
Adding specialty appliances to the kitchen will enhance its versatility. Examples include a Kamado smoker/grill, griddle, side burners, hot dog rotisseries, ice cream makers, kegerators, popcorn poppers, and even a wood-fired pizza oven.
In addition to working with you or your designers, several outdoor appliance companies have great reputations and can think outside the box. For a list of these companies, please contact the Smith King Team. A project takes between four and six weeks, depending on its size and complexity. Custom outdoor kitchens usually cost between $8,000 and $60,000.
