Building on the principles explored in Winning Outdoor Kitchen Design, this course is designed to help design professionals understand the evolving trends and best practices in outdoor kitchen design by considering three key areas: the natural landscape, the existing architecture and the human component. It will review the key considerations for creating sophisticated and functional outdoor cooking and entertaining spaces and determine how to create outdoor kitchen designs that prioritize client needs and comfort while ensuring longevity.
