When designing a true “forever home,” it is essential to think beyond aesthetics and consider how a space will function as its users’ needs evolve over time. As more people plan to age in place, early consideration of mobility and accessibility is crucial; ensuring spaces can adapt gracefully to future needs. While these conversations are common in interior design, guidance for outdoor environments is far less accessible. That’s why we’re welcoming Susan Doyle, a specialist in home renovation for long-term, accessible living, to share her expertise on creating outdoor spaces that support living well at every stage of life.

Unlike most interior or exterior spaces, the outdoor kitchen doesn’t sit neatly within one design discipline. Sometimes it lives with landscape architecture, sometimes with interiors, sometimes with architecture, and at times it’s handed directly to the builder. In this Design Dialogue, we’ll bring together experts from multiple fields to examine how teams can work together more seamlessly. Through real-world insights and cross-disciplinary perspectives, we’ll highlight strategies that lead to thoughtful, well-coordinated, and truly elevated outdoor kitchen environments.
