The Outdoor KitchenThat Gets More Use Than the One Inside

The Ueno Family

Location: Campbell, CA

Year Completed: 2019 

Some of our clients enjoy designing their outdoor kitchens as much as we do. When we met with the Uenos they were eager to create the kitchen of their dreams. We helped them do that, and it wasn’t by trying to upsell them on the most expensive features — we actually had to convince them to spend less money on certain components.

One of the Ueno’s favorite parts of the design process was choosing the stone for their outdoor kitchen. Until then, our client hadn’t given much thought to different types of stones, which made the process both fun and educational.

Once the stone was decided, the kitchen crew arrived. Like clockwork, they measured the space, taped it, and got busy.(We like working efficiently almost as much as we like working for our clients.)

A month after the Ueno’s kitchen was built, they told us they use it more often than their indoor kitchen. That’s what we call a worthwhile investment!

“Cooking outside is a game changer for our family as we are able to cook and watch our kids at the same time. The kids love being able to play and eat outside. Also, cooking outside just gives you a feeling of freedom as opposed to being cooped up in a kitchen while everyone else is having fun.”
