INSIDE: OUT CONTENTS OUTSIDE: IN
We have big news at Exterior Design! We’re going to team up with our sister publication, Designers Today, in a two-for-one interior/exterior punch. We figure it only makes sense, because today’s interior designers are being tasked with bringing their indoor sensibilities—outside. (Just ask Kris Kolar, vice president of merchandising and design at Clive Daniel. On page 32, Kris describes the elements of a luxurious space as “an extension of the interior.”) To kick off our new partnership, I will moderate a panel titled “Inside: Out . . . Outside: In” at the Las Vegas Market alongside Jane Dagmi, editor in chief of Designers Today. So please mark your calendars for Tuesday, July 31, 11:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m., when we’ll gather accomplished designers Justina Blakeney, Rafael Kalichstein, Joshua Rose, Kerrie Kelly and Lori Paranjape. The topic: how to bring natural elements inside and then seamlessly take that same aesthetic outside to the fi ſth room. Held in the OW Lee showroom (Bldg. C, C1301), the panel will award 0.1 CEU credit, and designers can expect goody bags and lunch served aſterward, thanks to our kind sponsor and premier exterior design manufacturer, OW Lee. (For a behind-the-scenes peek, turn to page 62.)
EDITOR
Another powerful punch: This July issue drops the mic on the myriad design choices for exterior spaces. I’m oſten asked, “What’s the most popular style for the outdoors?” And I always pause because . . . well, I can’t name just one thing. Almost anything goes! And yes, a lot depends on the place. In the Vision department, pages 28–33, we take you from the year-round stylings of the Sunshine State to the sleek rooſtops of New York to the West Coast sensibilities of a social media megastar. Then we segue to the Project section, pages 34–46, where we go from the easy grace of Saint Simons Island to the commercial heights of LA Build to the landscaping of the Julian Price House in the South. Other must-sees: The delicious outdoor leather that contributor Elaine Markoutsas found in Italy (our Trends pages 6–10), the artisanal craſtsmanship of Uwharrie Chair on pages 26–27, and our Focus on the edgy, new outdoor cabinetry line by Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens on pages 60–61. Then we leave you on a summery note on p. 64, where we remember that fashion is furniture, and in this case, furniture is fashion. □

The comfy sofa, with extra-deep seat cushions and big rolled arms, beckons you outside. You touch it, and it’s kid-glove soſt. That’s because it’s leather. Handsome Italian brand Exteta (exteta.it) showed off tailored outdoor leather styles in Paris and Milan. A sleek chaise (above) with a taut clove-colored footrest and rolled headrest paired with an outdoor-safe linen-like chenille weave. Poufs and chairs filled out the group—so elegant, they remind us of an insanely gorgeous outdoor lantern that Hermes introduced a few years back. Covered with water-resistant calfskin, the lantern comprises four individual

cylinders with LED technology, a rechargeable battery and a $19,100 price tag. Another modern, sophisticated group shown at Maison & Object is designed with a proprietary outdoor leather craſted by Boxmark, a company in Austria with a 200-plus-year history. Called the Xtreme collection, it includes a sofa, chair, lounge, bar stool and table, with handsome stitching and detailing like weaves and embroidery. Designer Sabina Zerezghi craſted the collection with the idea that, “True luxury is not loud; it does not scream— true luxury whispers.”

Boxmark outdoor leather comes in seven standard and 50 “trendy” colors, including substantial blue, green, orange and yellow ranges—even Ultra Violet, Pantone’s Color of the Year. Incorporating the best European bull hides, the leather is soiland abrasion-resistant, with high tension and tear values. Both the Xtreme Collection (as well as Boxmark leathers) are available at IK Yacht Design (ikyacht.com) in Dania, Florida. At DeLany + Long Ltd. (delanyandlong.com), the outdoor leather is sourced from European hides that are 1 to 1.3 millimeters thick. They come in 17 colors in hides around 55 square feet. It’s water-, stain- and mildew-resistant and available through Cowtan & Tout (cowtan.com). Hydes Leather Products (hydesleather.com) near Seattle is another source that sells to high-end yachts. Its European hides are chrome tanned, then drum dyed with anilines resistant to washing. The leather is then washed twice at 60 degrees centigrade, followed by surface dyeing with pigments resistant to atmospheric conditions. The durable, light-fast leather also is antimicrobial, suitable for outdoor and marine use. At Maison & Objet in Paris, we discovered leather chairs and lounges at the stand of Italian company Baxter (baxter.it). Big, easy upholstered chairs and bamboo looks in copper tubing, with mossy green and sand leathers. Everything was furnished in a chill post-industrial oasis, framed with real potted palms and lush plants. Many of the products, as well as the stand, are the design of Paola Navone, who believes outdoor rooms should be as stylish as they are comfortable—even casually luxurious—whether you’re lounging or entertaining. One of the Baxter’s phenom materials is called Hydro leather— and it’s real, not faux. It’s about 4 millimeters thick, full-grain, with 100% vegetable tanning. During a process of aniline dying, some oils are added to make the surface water-repellent. In spite of its water-resistance, the leather maintains its transpiring properties. So if it’s exposed repeatedly to sun and water, it ages with a patina that only enhances its appearance. So raise your glasses for a toast: Here’s to luxe-look leather upholstery that can actually be out in the sun, get rained on and even spilled on without compromise. Cheers to raising the bar in outdoor materials! Paola Navone designed the Rimini, an etched copper tubular frame paired with a moss Hydro leather seat and cushion, for Baxter.

As summer temperatures soar, we’re crushing on designs that feel open, airy, light. On the modern front, an array of minimalist, easy-on-the-eyes objects refresh with the power of a stirring breeze. Traditional designs get reinvented, inspired by exotic places. They demand we slow down and take a second look through an updated lens.

ith more than a half-million followers on Instagram (and thousands more on other social platforms and her blog), Los Angeles designer Amber Lewis knows the power of social media. In just six years, she’s turned a simple home renovation blog into a thriving interior design business that includes a brick-and-mortar and online store, Shoppe. We recently caught up with Lewis to talk about how she harnessed the power of the Internet to take her business to the next level.
SOCIAL DESIGN
BUILDING AN ONLINE FOLLOWING HELPED LAY THE FOUNDATION FOR AMBER LEWIS’ BUSINESS
VISION
BY JENNIFER BRINGLE
How has a strong online presence helped you build your brand? My online presence has been everything to my growth as a designer. I first started with a blog when I was remodeling my first home. I would do DIY projects that were budget-friendly, which really captured my readers’ attention. I was then featured in Glitter Guide and Apartment Therapy, which changed everything. I had a following on my blog, which then helped me gain followers on Instagram when that became a popular platform. I have people all over the U.S. inquiring about designing homes, which wouldn’t have happened as easily without social media. I’ve also been lucky enough to open my own brick-and-mortar store and an e-commerce site, which sell all the furniture and accessories that I’m known for. Also, because of social media I have fans all over the world, which is very exciting! Why is Instagram such an important platform for designers? Instagram is a great community for designers because it’s all about gaining support and inspiring one another in this industry. I not only post my own clients’ designs, but I highlight designers that genuinely inspire me. Design is ever-evolving, so it’s exciting to be a part of it in the moment, and Instagram allows that to happen. How do you choose what goes on your blog and social channels? I wish I had more of a rhyme or reason to
28 | exterior design
what I post on @amberinteriors, but it’s very in-the-moment. I don’t have anyone manage that account—it’s all me adding my current daily inspiration or thoughts. I do have someone who manages my blog, which is also very in-the-moment and meant to be a fun space to inspire others. I try to keep everything current and fresh. You have a very authentic voice that comes through in your online posts—why is it so important to maintain that voice? Because it’s me! I don’t want people thinking I’m some unapproachable designer. I want to stay approachable with
my brand and have a voice that people can relate to. I make mistakes, I have bad days, and everything isn’t perfect all the time. But that’s OK, and I think my followers appreciate my truth and realness. What’s the one piece of advice you’d give designers interested in building their brand online? Find other designers who inspire your passions and start a conversation with them. Be excited about being in the community; it’s not about what hashtags you use—it’s about what you put out there. Keep doing and making, and people will notice. □ exterior design | 29

hen a boy born in Canada’s northern prairies creates a thriving design practice in one of the world’s toughest cities, you know he’s talented. But designer Michael Wood says a little luck helped him along the way, too.
URBAN OUT F I T TER A MANHATTAN DESIGNER CREATES OUTDOOR OASES IN THE CONCRETE JUNGLE
VISION
BY KIM COOK
“Some call it luck, others call it timing,” laughs Wood, whose eponymous firm is situated in Manhattan’s design-centric Flatiron District. While he’d been a partner in a Calgary design firm, Wood came to New York as a project manager for a custom mill-work and exhibit manufacturer. “I wasn’t actively designing,” he says. “When I was directed to a friend of a friend who was contemplating some cosmetic changes to his West Village loft, I offered some advice, and the next thing you know we were gutting the place.” The client was an up-and-coming Wall Street executive, and his friends started calling on Wood. Before he knew it, he had several jobs, and the business took off. Wood’s projects range from townhouses and apartments to lofts and terraces in trendy neighborhoods like the West Village, Tribeca, Madison Square Park and the Upper West Side. To each, he’s brought his signature ease and élan. Designing and building outdoor spaces in Manhattan poses unique challenges. What are some that you’ve had to address? There’s a wide range of Department of Building requirements, some of which were updated after Hurricane Sandy. Building management requires that no elements be permanent so they can access the roof and structure for repairs. But they also require that everything be secure enough during inclement weather. We solve that dilemma by rethinking the concept of permanence—attaching fencing to planters weighted with soil or gravel, etc. What are some other hurdles that impact urban design? Construction costs for an outdoor kitchen often exceed those of the cabinets and appliances. Some
30 | exterior design
buildings won’t allow a sink at all, but if they do, we need to run the drain though exterior walls into the waste line. It’s important to consider these factors before getting too far down the road with the design. How do you handle privacy concerns for residents with a city terrace or rooftop? Everyone’s perception of privacy is unique, so we take direction from the client. There are building and code restrictions, like a max 6-foot fence. When a fence isn’t the answer, tall planters with boxwood or arborvitae make an effective screen. You’ve got some very substantial planters on the West Village terrace. How do you handle weight concerns? We sometimes have to provide a load calculation letter to the building before construction. One solution is to replace existing concrete pavers with lighter wooden deck tiles. While some of the man-made products have come a long way, I prefer ipe for its durability, flexibility and natural weathering qualities. What are some design elements you like to bring to New York’s lofts and terraces? We might design a fence with varying widths of horizontal planks to interpret ipe in a modern way. We might ease or chamfer the planks, or create a radiused seat edge on a bench. The furnishings are often built-in, and we always incorporate some custom upholstery elements
to personalize the space. There are so many outstanding outdoor fabrics from Perennials and Sunbrella. You incorporate some interesting sconces and integrated wall lighting into your designs. In some locations the city offers a good deal of ambient light, but I like to enhance the space with integrated wall and deck lighting. A lot has to do with the type of mood the client prefers. What are some design considerations urban homeowners should think about when it comes to outdoor living spaces? You really have to think about durability if you want a solid return on your investment. The forces of nature take their toll quickly, so after not too long, poorly designed furnishings and finishes will start to show. Read the history of reviews for outdoor furniture carefully. The longer a product has been in production the more you’ll understand how well-designed it is. What should potential clients know about your approach and your design philosophy? What I hear most from my clients is their appreciation for our one-stop shop—interiors, terraces, architecture and project management—we’re their advocate throughout the process. Ultimately we all want the same thing: a beautiful project that you’ll love forever, to time and to budget. □ exterior design | 31
K WH O LE HOME design
THE OUTDOOR IS A MUST AT CLIVE DANIEL HOME
VISION
B Y WA Y N E T T E G O O D S O N
32 | exterior design
ris Kolar knows what she’s talking about. As the vice president of merchandising and design at Clive Daniel Home, she has more than 25 years of design under her belt, heading up projects for discerning individuals and commercial sites alike. Think The Breakers, Palm Beach, and The National Hotel, South Beach. She once told me that when designing the home, if you stop short at the outdoor space, it “lessens” everything you’ve done indoors. Well said! Here’s her vision when it comes to exterior design: What are the elements of a luxurious outdoor space? I look at the outside as being an extension of the interior. So when we’re doing the interior, whatever colors we’re using, whatever style we’re using, I need to also have things for the outdoor area that goes with that. So if it’s transitional and gray, then I need transitional and gray, and if it’s black-and-white stripes on the interior, or just a black-and-white statement, then I need blackand-white for the outdoor. You now have locations in Naples and Boca Raton. Have you noticed any Florida-specific trends in outdoor? In Florida, we live outside a lot, and we have these huge sliders, and the whole rooms open up, and I’m in places where it’s hard to even tell when you walk from the inside to the outside. They’ve gotten so good with the flooring and the small divides for where the sliders and the windows go. It’s all one subject. And customers, if they want quality on the inside, they’ll want quality on the outside. What is your forte in exterior design? Grace Akol, who buys our upholstery for the inside, also buys outdoor. So she’s very scaleconscious. We’re very style- and scale-conscious; that’s what we do the best. The other thing you have to worry about on the exterior is the condo market, because they’ll have balconies or small patios, and then there are huge homes that might have acres of land and pools outside. We go through the same exercise outside as we do inside as far as making sure we have things for all size locations and all size people.
When you work with your clients here; it’s the total home. When Clive Lubner started Clive Daniel Home in 2011, he wanted it to be the total home. So there’s everything in here from outdoor lighting and then there’s indoor lighting. If you would like custom side panels for the exterior space, we can do that as well as the draperies for the interiors. If you want a new tile floor for inside or outside, you’ve got it made of porcelain, things that look like wood but they’re made for the outside. So we’ll do the total home. We’ll do construction, whatever they need to do. Has Clive Daniel always had designers on staff? Today we have about 44 designers. When Clive started this company, the first person he called was me, and my background was in interior design. I’ve been an interior designer my whole life. But I head up the merchandising because I have that mindset. If I’m in a showroom, the first thing that I think of when I see something unusual is, ‘Is it functional? Where could I use that in a home?’ So if it’s too deep and too big and not going to fit in a foyer or in kitchens, then we have to pass because it’s too big or it’s too
small. So scale is probably the thing I’m the most conscious of, more so than a typical buyer would be. And you do contract, too. We have a hospitality division, and the hospitality designers are more knowledgeable about products for commercial spaces than our interior designers. So it could be clubhouses, timeshares, hotels, or big country clubs. They do everything. And we do international. Is there a higher degree of detail required for luxury? No question. And good designers get that. And I think that customers who are used to having and living in well-designed spaces, they understand that, and they expect it. People who have never experienced it, however, are thrilled when you bring it to them for the first time. It’s just like inner-lining the draperies so they hang better, and they look like European draperies and keep out more of the sunlight, and they’re just more luxurious looking. The attention to detail is what separates good designers from the ones who are just furniture salespeople. □ exterior design | 33

rom the beginning of the design process, Georgia-based designer Dee Simmons makes sure the client is involved. The first meeting allows her to get a feel for their preferences and taste. “It’s amazing what you can pick up on just by what someone is wearing or their mannerisms,” Simmons says. “To be a great designer, you must be able to read people quickly. This helps in saving time to get to the fun stuff.” With new builds, Simmons involves the clients throughout the process and gets to know them in regard to how they live and entertain. This is evident in two projects—one in Panama City, Florida, (right) and the other in Saint Simons Island, Georgia (above). Despite their waterfront locales, the projects are tailored to the clients. “It’s important to me that each person or family feels as if part of them went into the home design,” Simmons says. “They will then be proud and feel at home in their new space.”

A neutral color palette can exude a casual sophistication.
In her projects, Simmons incorporates inspiration from her own travels, as well. “I take notice of my surroundings and how each culture lives so I can bring something different and exciting back to the South,” she says. While Simmons draws on these international influences, the waterfront setting of both of these projects provided ample inspiration, as well as unique challenges. “In the South, where a lot of my designs are located, salt air is the biggest challenge,” she explains. “Besides purchasing high-quality furniture and fabrics, client training and awareness are the most important factors in exterior design. Designers should manage their clients’ expectations with examples of how to care for their exterior.” When sourcing furnishings and accessories for outdoor projects, Simmons looks for products that will be low-maintenance. Additionally, for many of her clients— whose spaces are secondary homes—she helps develop a plan for how the furniture will be covered or moved while they’re away for months at a time, to ensure a longer life for the furniture.
Design flourishes, such as this colorful vase, reveal Simmons’ penchant for travel.
Most importantly, Simmons emphasizes her relationship with the clients throughout the design process to create a truly personal retreat. “I work very closely with all of my clients on their whole-home project,” she says. “I love having their attention to the overall scheme and then at the end with the parts that will make it their personal home.” □

ccording to recent U.S. Census data, outdoor spaces were included in 91% of newly constructed homes. That’s not surprising to Ami Harari, president of LA Build Corp (labuildcorp.com), a general contracting and real estate development firm based in Los Angeles. The company enjoys a brisk business in outdoor, working with homeowners, architects and designers to bring posh exterior living spaces to life. Harari explains why exterior design has become such an important part of his business, and how his company approaches building outdoor spaces. Many of today’s builders/architects are incorporating outdoor rooms/spaces in their plans—why has this become such a big trend? We have such fantastic weather in California that utilizing the outdoors has become a trend homeowners enjoy year-round. Watching

movies, eating and socializing are all activities that can be just as comfortable and luxurious if planned the correct way. The backyard is not just for kids anymore. What’s the secret to creating indoor and outdoor spaces that flow seamlessly? It’s important to keep a similar design theme so when you are inside looking out, it looks like an extension of the room and vice versa. Tall ceilings with exposed beams give the open sensibility so that the patio continues the same flow. The large aluminum sliding exterior doors really accentuate this extended look because they reveal so much of the exterior. Having floor-to-ceiling glass exposes the outdoors, and when they are open, the indoor/outdoor takes on a life of its own. How do you approach functionality in outdoor spaces? What are some must-haves? I believe that covered or partially covered patios help to create the idea of a room. Staging the furniture develops boundaries, and a running countertop rather than a simple barbecue also aligns the area to stay in-line with the building envelope. Lighting the exterior is one of the most important items—we use a strictly landscape electrician when designing exterior lighting. Are there any challenges—building regulations, etc.—you face with outdoor spaces? How do you overcome them?

I believe the main challenge for outdoor spaces is the actual square footage that there is to work with. If the design calls for a fire pit, pool and dining area, and the area is not as big as one would like, we like to design the pool on the side of the home and finish slightly wider at the actual backyard, thereby allowing more space to be allocated to the fire-pit and dining areas. Another challenge is that in some areas of Los Angeles and other cities, covered patios are considered as livable square footage, so we study these restrictions carefully. At what point during the planning stages of a project do you think about the exterior of the home? Most architects and designers have an idea of the entire home before they begin at the drafting table, so I believe the exterior is considered from the beginning of the brainstorming stage. Do you feel as though the exterior of the home is a continued connection to the interior? Essentially, why do you feel that clients find an exterior space just as important as the interior?
42 | exterior design
I feel that the exterior is absolutely the prelude to the interior. If they are not connected, they will lack the symbiotic relationship needed to create a continuous flow. How do you see this trend of living evolving in the future? People have incorporated their backyards into their homes for decades, but it is only recently that they have stepped up the design factor and built more luxurious areas so they don’t appear as an afterthought. We are already adding outdoor theaters, so more than likely, home automation will have a surge, as well. What is your advice to designers working with homeowners to create luxe outdoor spaces? I believe a big challenge is the expense that goes into building the exterior. Many times a homeowner is not quite prepared for the price tag that comes with essentially building more rooms to the house. Once this is accomplished, however, exterior areas often become the most utilized area on the property. Setting clients’ expectations so they budget the exterior generously from the beginning will help to achieve tremendous results. ▥

AL FRESCO RESTORATION REVIVING THE HISTORIC JULIAN PRICE HOUSE INCLUDED A LANDSCAPE OVERHAUL BY ROBIN SUTTON ANDERS
exterior design | 45
A
Greensboro, North Carolina, postcard from the early 1930s shows a grand Tudor Revival–style mansion, surrounded by sweeps of plush grass and dotted with a few prominent conifers. Designed for philanthropist Julian Price to resemble an ancient British manor, the four-story, 31-room, 7,266-square-foot house was worth writing home about. Over the next few decades, the “Hillside” estate became all the more spectacular as trees matured, framing the home’s defined arches and fairy-tale towers. Landscape designer Chip Callaway knew the home in its days of splendor. “I moved to Greensboro in the ’70s and bought a house in the same Fisher Park neighborhood,” he says. “I remember weddings under giant oaks and fancy cocktail parties during furniture markets.” In 1979, the historic mansion was added to the National Register of Historic Places. But over the coming years, neglect took its toll on the home and its once-coveted lawn. The situation became so dire, in fact, that the estate was featured on the A&E show, “Hoarders.” When Eric and Michael Fuko-Rizzo purchased the property in 2016, they had to use their imagination. “It was so overgrown that we literally couldn’t see it,” Michael laughs. They immediately partnered with Preservation Greensboro, selecting designers and architects to resurrect the home according to strict historic preservation standards. For the grounds, Callaway was a natural choice. “Across the country, Chip Callaway is known for his work in formal landscaping,” Michael says. “And he’s a preservationist who lives right here in Fisher Park.” Old postcards are helpful reference points for any restoration project, but they’re only a start. “You can restore a house to the way it was, but a garden, never,” Callaway says. “You acknowledge the initial aesthetic and recognize that the years bring a different dynamic.” Where young trees once let the sun dapple gardens and flowering plants, the deep canopy of today’s magnificent trees give shade. “You have to be respectful of what’s happened over time,” he explains. Strangled for decades by the undergrowth of 14 different invasive exotic plants, ranging from huge swaths of bamboo to Japanese honeysuckle and poison ivy, the first step was clearing the wild vines and shrubs. “We had to let the house have its say,” Callaway says. “It’s a gorgeous

piece of architecture, and I wanted to plant things that would never outgrow their place in the landscape—plants that could be pruned so you could open up the magnificent vista from the street.” Shrubs like boxwoods now hug and anchor the house, surrounded by as many native plants as possible, including American hollies and azaleas, ferns and wildflowers. “I call these ‘Greensboro Gothic’ plants,” Callaway says. “In other words, the plants available to local nurseries in the ’20s and ’30s.” Now that the home has room to breathe, Callaway can turn his attention to Phase II. In areas he filled with camellias, azaleas and hydrangeas, Callaway will soon under plant old-fashioned bulbs, like surprise lilies, commonly used in the early 20th century. “There were apparently thousands of old-fashioned narcissus that had disappeared,” he says. “This year we’ll plant thousands more.” Pete Bryant, owner of Southern Exposure and Southern Lights, partnered with Callaway to execute a landscape plan that included new plantings, hardscaping and soft lighting. “The lighting literally is magical,” Michael says. “When the sun is still setting, the beautiful plants and the soft, green grass just glows. It is a fairy tale.” □

As brand ambassador for Coyote Outdoor Living, Kerrie Kelly has learned how intricately outdoor kitchen offerings have expanded in recent years. In fact, she has curated three outdoor furnishings collections that Coyote will debut at Casual Market in Chicago this September. Included in the line are the Laguna Collection, the South Beach Collection and the Catalina Collection, which take their cues from a variety of regional styles from transitional to warm contemporary.

KERRIE KELLY CREATES BEAUTIFUL OUTDOOR SPACES IN NORTHERN, CA, INCLUDING THE LUSH VINEYARDS OF NAPA VALLEY

“I like to blur the lines from indoors to outdoors,” said Kelly, FSAID and principal of Kerrie Kelly Design Lab. “With the right furniture designs, we can have the interior flow seamlessly to the outdoors. You can consider the same elements you use inside your home, and have it look just as beautiful outside.” We recently asked the designer for some tips on arranging the outdoor space: What are your considerations when setting up seating areas with outdoor furniture? Outdoor seating areas should be livable and versatile. It’s best when our outdoor spaces support the way we live and how we entertain others. Seating areas should be able to easily morph from an intimate two-person setting into a larger 12-person celebration. Are there particular color palettes that look good in outdoor spaces? Just as I would suggest for the interior, larger pieces of furniture like chairs and sofas are best when purchased in neutral tones. Cream, beige or gray Sunbrella fabrics allow us to layer on colorful, patterned throw blankets and throw pillows throughout the year. What are some of the details included in the furniture collections you curated for Coyote Outdoor Living? The details are timeless. Whether it’s the Laguna Collection’s X-back details or the South Beach woven panels, the designer accents add texture and interest to outdoor living while complementing the overall outdoor aesthetic.
De si g ne r Fa vo r i te s The Asado Cooker I love the Asado cooker for its effortless cooking options, not to mention its dynamic designer details. Since it’s on wheels, it can be put anywhere in your outdoor scheme. Its black exterior and thoughtful bamboo accents complement any exterior palette. It supports our lifestyle as we like to get our guests involved with the cooking—whether we are roasting tomatoes for homemade salsa or cooking up carnitas, everyone feels a part of the process and is excited to partake in the end result. The Electric Grill Island The Electric Grill Island has been a designer’s dream, as we outfit our urban loſt and condo living spaces. Grilling that was once “not an option” due to propane is now “bring it on” for our clients’ smaller patios. The easy, livable, durable grill setup truly elevates small-space living. The 30” S Series Grill The new 30’’ compact grill from the luxury-level S-Series line features two high-performance Coyote Infinity Burners, ceramic briquettes flavorizers and a 700-square-inch cooking area. It combines all the power and function of a luxury grill with the affordability and durability of every Coyote Outdoor Living grill. The heavy-gauge stainless-steel exterior brings the look of your indoor kitchen outside. Refreshment Center I also love the Refreshment Center. This item has allowed us to create the outdoor kitchen of our clients’ dreams using the 30-inch center as a drop-in cooler with a drain and a removable condiment tray insert. The beverage center also features a convenient bottle shelf, towel holder and a bottle opener so guests can help themselves throughout the day or night. For more product details and information, please visit coyoteoutdoor.com.
................................................................................................................................................... What is the favorite outdoor space you have designed and why? Brasswood’s Napa Valley al fresco bakery and restaurant patio. The two areas complement each other without being matchy-matchy and invite guests to stay and linger awhile. One can pick up a quick breakfast or watch their dinner being made by the pizza oven. Others can grab an afternoon glass of wine from the restaurant or celebrate in larger groups on into the evening. Can you tell us about the spectacular outdoor areas you have designed at famous wineries? We have also furnished some of the outdoor areas at Napa Valley’s Ink House. Our Coyote Outdoor Living seven-piece dining set perches beautifully just outside the bocce court for an Asado-cooked dinner or sets up effortlessly under the pergola for a barn-side wine tasting. We have even brought the dining set up to the wraparound porch and
grilled dinners on the Coyote stand-alone grill, showing how versatile both cooking and outdoor entertaining can be. Can you describe (from a designer’s perspective) how you add layers to a space? Once a solid foundation is created in your outdoor space, the layers are what add the livability and personality to the design. Anchoring the space with an area rug is always a good idea. Adding an overhead structure to block out the sun or provide privacy is also a great suggestion. Pillows, throw blankets and a variety of types of light via path lights, fire pits and lanterns add ambiance, too. Consider all of the elements you may use in your interior to be appropriate for your exterior as well. Mirrors, art and accessories only complete your outdoor look. □ exterior design | 51

BROWN JORDAN OUTDOOR KITCHENS DEBUTS NEW LINE

B Y WA Y N E T T E G O O D S O N
rown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens views exterior kitchen design as much more than, well, kitchen design. With the debut of TECNO, the company elevates mere outdoor cabinetry to that of an art form.
FOCUS
Created in partnership with architect and designer Daniel Germani and Dekton by Cosentino, the new line marks the second collaboration for the two brands and Germani, who last year launched the ASA-D2 outdoor modular kitchen, which continues to receive accolades from the design industry. “TECNO is the next step in the evolution of the kitchen cabinet,” Germani says. “The goal was to create an elegant outdoor kitchen solution that will inspire those who use it and transform the way they view and inhabit their outdoor spaces. “All of the ingredients for an amazing adventure in outdoor entertaining have been brought together in one unified, durable concept, including compact Dekton and stainless steel in a powder-coated finish. Both bring beauty and sophisticated design elements that command attention.” TECNO is a Euro-inspired luxury outdoor kitchen line craſted from stainless steel for durability and powder-coated for a beautiful and virtually maintenance-free finish. Features include a sleek frameless design, single-height façade and nested,

soſt-close drawers with integrated pulls. Designed with versatility in mind, TECNO accommodates a variety of appliances and configurations, and is equally at home outdoors and indoors. The new line is available in its own unique color palette, as well as powder-coat wood-grain finishes and four of the Dekton by Cosentino industrial colors, which pay tribute to the imperfections of metal and stone at different stages of age and decay (shown right, in the Nilium color). The powder-coated finish offers protection from the harshest elements, including marine environments, for long-lasting performance. “Our latest collaboration with Daniel Germani continues to expand the concept of outdoor kitchens beyond traditional offerings,” says Mitch Slater, president of Danver Stainless Outdoor Kitchens, licensee of Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens. “As consumers spend more time in their outdoor living environments, they want those spaces to offer the same level of design as found in the interior of their homes. TECNO delivers on this desire by bringing a sophisticated edge to the outdoor kitchen.” The TECNO cabinet line combines beauty and sophistication with high-performance functionality—perfect for outdoor entertainment spaces and under-roof applications. It’s part of an ongoing collaboration between Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens, Dekton by Cosentino and Daniel Germani Designs. □
