Build an outdoor patio with kitchen design

An outdoor patio with kitchen and cooking area adds living space, function, and style. It is like adding a whole new room to your home.

Environmental Construction, Inc. can custom design and build an outdoor kitchen with patiofor yourSeattle area homethat you will use and enjoy almost year-round. Outdoor kitchens are a great new idea and one that is really catching on in the Pacific Northwest. It is a practical way to add square footage to your home at a fraction of the cost.

I think food just taste better when it's cooked outdoors. And I prefer entertaining outdoors also -- the kids are free to run while the adults converse around the fire (or outdoor kitchen grill, in this case.) With good wind protection, a roof and a nice patio surface, an outdoor kitchen and accompanying eating area can really make a nice bonus to your home.

It is possible to use an outdoor kitchen and patio almost year-round. Radiant heaters keep the chill out and a wind block (along with a small paper weight) keeps the napkins on the table. A roof keeps you dry and retains some of the heat. Mesh screens are a nice addition in the summer as they help keep insects away from the party.

Just think…you could even convert your indoor kitchen into a guest room and use the outdoor kitchen all the time. OK...maybe not, but the idea might be tempting.

It's a bit of a paradigm shift, but you could install an outdoor dishwasher, refrigerator, and even a sink with garbage disposal...it's all possible.

If you build an outdoor patio kitchen design, it might mean your vegetable or herb gardencan be planted in your new kitchen. You can prepare a meal with ingredients so fresh and organic that the vegetables will have moved less than 20 feet from plant to dish. It doesn't get any fresher than that! The aromas of fresh lavender, rosemary, and orange blossoms add charm and ambiance to an already beautiful outdoor kitchen living area.

Ahh...breakfast bacon on the grill...steak dinner with a glass of wine at sunset...s'mores while staying cozy around the fireplace in winter...a cool breeze and view of the garden with lunch…

Am I tempting you yet?
