How to transform your veranda into a kitchen

In addition to being the heart of the home, the kitchen with Corradi can also become the soul of your outdoor space. How would you feel about cooking surrounded by greenery? Creating an outdoor kitchen on your veranda is a great way to maximise your outdoor space without needing to carry out extensive renovations. Here are some ideas for turning a veranda into a kitchen.

A kitchen on your veranda: the steps to consider

Creating a kitchen on your veranda that is functional, aesthetically pleasing, and perfectly integrated requires careful attention to every detail. Where to start?

1. Assessing the available space

Start with the dimensions and shape of the veranda: how big is it, and how much natural light does it receive? What is its orientation? These factors influence the layout of the modules, the choice of colours, and the overall ergonomics of the kitchen.

2. Planning a kitchen on your veranda

As well as defining workspaces and the positioning of appliances, choose finishes and materials that combine aesthetics with durability. Some examples? Stainless steel, stone, or stoneware surfaces guarantee durability and easy cleaning. Furthermore, they are ideal for environments surrounded by nature.

3. Create a solid and protected structure

Insulate the veranda and incorporate heating, ventilation, or air conditioning systems to maintain comfort throughout every season. In light of this, the veranda side closures help regulate temperature and humidity.

Do you like to organise aperitifs at sunset or dinners under the stars? Add lighting systems on several levels (spot lights, decorative lamps, candles), to ensure the right atmosphere.

The importance of having a cover: Imago^® bioclimatic pergola

When it comes to outdoor cooking, protection from the sun and the inclemency of the weather is essential: installing a pergola is essential for enjoying your outdoor space all year round, even on rainy days or during intense heat.

Among the outdoor solutions by Corradi, the Imago^® bioclimatic pergola is the ideal ally. In fact, its adjustable blades make it possible to adjust natural light and the degree of ventilation, allowing you to use the cooker in any season.

Which outdoor kitchen to choose for the veranda

Turning your veranda into a kitchen opens up a multitude of furnishing possibilities. If you have plenty of space, a kitchen with a central island or peninsula is perfect: it serves both as a workspace and as a gathering spot for entertaining guests, thus serving as the focal point of your outdoor area.

Is the veranda compact? A linear or corner layout with space-saving modules provides the advantage of fitting even in the most compact spaces. This way, you won’t have to give up on the dream of trying out different recipes. Let yourself be inspired by the greenery and scents of your garden.
