Outdoor Kitchen Contemporary Patio, Chicago

An additional challenge for the design team was to ensure that the kitchen would withstand the harsh Chicago elements; the countertop was done in honed granite and the cabinetry is marine-grade teak. To bring the modern design into harmony with the natural surroundings, a neutral palette was selected to complement the aesthetic inside the home without detracting from the lush green of the outdoor space.

How often does the Teak require treatment or sealing?

@ermd, the teak does require some maintenance. We suggest oiling it every season, or as necessary to withstand fading.

What Houzz contributors are saying:

Jennifer Christgau-Aquino added this to How to Cook Up Plans for a Deluxe Outdoor Kitchen

But if you’re truly interested in entertaining and using your outdoor kitchen as a full-service operation, then you’ll want to consider a bigger prep space and features like an outdoor refrigerator, sink, storage space and a bar or proximity to an entertaining or eating area.
