Whether you’re planning a family BBQ, garden party or evening soiree the kitchen remains the heart of the home even when the guests are outside (we hope!). Indoor-outdoor spaces work well at any time of the year, but here are our top tips for making the most of your kitchen during the warmer months.
- Add architectural interest with Crittal doors
Crittal doors are having a real moment turning functional doors into a real design feature. When closed they really frame garden views, and when thrown open they’ll invite guests to explore outside.
- Continue design features outside
Continuity between your kitchen and garden is a fantastic way to create a relaxed flow between the spaces. Choosing the same flooring is a clever way to do this, being both practical and grounding between the two spaces.
- Add a pop of colour to your island
If you fancy a quick summer update, consider painting your island in a bold summery colour to add some warmth and create a striking focal point when guests look back to the house.
- Turn your kitchen into a home bar
Using your kitchen as an indoor-outdoor bar, whether mingling over appetizers or collecting a drink before heading outside, use your island to transition from indoors to out.
