Why homeowners use an outdoor kitchen design tool
An outdoor kitchen gets built once, in concrete and stone.
- 1 photo
See the kitchen on your patio
The island, counters, and grill placed on your actual space, so you can read the layout before any gas line or footing goes in.
- 1 try
Try a layout before you build
Built-in kitchens run into real money. Test the island and the flow on screen before you pour a slab.
- 60s
A design in under a minute
Shoot the patio, pick a layout, and get an outdoor kitchen back in seconds.
One patio, every kitchen layout
Grill islands, L and U-shapes, bar seating, pizza ovens, and more, designed on a photo of your actual patio, not a stock yard.
How the outdoor kitchen design tool works
One photo of the patio or yard you want to build on is enough.
- 01
Photograph the space
Shoot the patio, deck, or bare yard where the kitchen will go, with the house in frame for context.
- 02
Pick a layout or finish
A straight run, an L-shaped island, or a U-shape, with stone, tile, or concrete surrounds. Each one changes the build.
- 03
Get your design
See the outdoor kitchen on your real space, with a layout you can take to a contractor.
Built for real outdoor kitchens
What designing an outdoor kitchen actually has to get right.
Layouts that fit the space
An island, a grill run, a bar, or a full U-shape, sized to your actual patio so the work flow and the seating make sense. Compare a couple on the same photo before you commit.
Keeps your patio and house
The design keeps your patio footprint, the house, and the surroundings, then drops in the kitchen, counters, and finishes on top, so it reads as your yard and not a showroom.
A design you can build from
You get an outdoor kitchen you can save, compare against the original photo, and hand to a contractor for a quote. There's no heavy 3D software to learn first.

Dozens of layouts and finishes for any outdoor space, ready in under a minute.
