Outdoor kitchens & BBQ areas
Built-in BBQs, stone benches, plumbed sinks, integrated fridges, and alfresco dining zones designed as part of the landscape — not bolted on.
The trolley-BBQ-on-a-deck era is over. The Gold Coast lifestyle now lives or dies on the outdoor kitchen — a built-in space where hosting feels effortless and the cook isn't trapped indoors while everyone else sits outside.
A proper outdoor kitchen is more than a BBQ in a stone surround. It's a plumbed sink. It's a fridge that doesn't fight the salt. It's bench space that's actually usable for prep. It's task lighting that lets the cook see the meat at 9pm. It's an exhaust hood that handles smoke. It's drainage that survives ten Gold Coast summers. And it's all integrated into the landscape so the whole zone feels intentional.
We've built outdoor kitchens from $18,000 single-BBQ benches up to $80,000+ integrated cook+entertain zones with pizza ovens, side burners, double drawers, kegerators and stone-clad island benches. The brief always starts the same way: how often do you actually entertain, what do you actually cook, and where does the wind come from. The build follows from there.

- 01Step 01
Brief + lifestyle audit
We talk through how you actually entertain — how many people, how often, what you cook, what's missing in your current setup. Most kitchens fail because the brief is wrong, not the build.
