Big, fresh style is the signature of this poolhouse kitchen, designed for wet feet, quick snacks, and lots of happy visitors.

The white wooden beams and slate grey roof of this outdoor kitchen creates an elegant Hampton style space. The colour co-ordinated muted white worktops and island make the kitchen look light, spacious and calm. #homedecor Click for more outdoor kitchen design ideas. Image: The Creative Exchange

Part eight of our five-week series exploring every nook and cranny of our latest design project. Today, the home’s pool house and exterior.

This gorgeous poolhouse is not just a place to dry off after a dip in the water. Inside there’s a beautiful kitchen (with bar!) where the home owner shows off his culinary skills and creates al fresco dinners to remember. The iconic Gargantua in galvanized steel is the perfect spot to dine in the shade of the covered terrace. The aged wood, clean lines and functional design of the picnic table complements the sleek silhouette of this modern and airy poolhouse.
