DFN outdoor kitchens: many solutions for sophisticated needs

Written by Chiara Bastianelli | Aug 21, 2018 7:35:00 AM

Outdoor kitchens are an ultra-modern, luxury way to enjoy the outdoors. They are specially designed to use domestic appliances that are built to withstand time and the elements.

Cooking outdoors is not just fun; it is more than that. It is an experience that can improve hospitality and make time spent together more pleasing for everyone.

This is why you will probably find clients who want to expand their living space to create somewhere unique and special, where they can enjoy free time; or hospitality structures wanting to build an open-air setting that is different and appealing to guests.

Outdoor kitchens have increased the functions of outdoor spaces, adding extra value, and giving the pleasure of being able to eat in the garden, or on a terrace, making the very most of the potential that outdoor furnishing can offer.

It is true that they belong to the broader category of outdoor furniture and are also one of the major elements that characterise a space.

This is why it is advisable to carefully study the right position of an outdoor kitchen as well as to place it in a well shaded, properly ventilated area. In fact, DFN outdoor kitchens combine perfectly not only with our furniture, but also with our covered structures such as bioclimatic pergolas and conservatories.

DFN has a range of outdoor kitchens to satisfy every need and requirement of its customers, thanks to the choice of different types to create pleasing, luxury and practical areas.

The pleasure of exciting your senses with outdoor luxury

Enjoy outdoor living on every occasion” - this is the philosophy behind the Outdoor Kitchens from the Samuele Mazza Outdoor Collection brand, made and sold by DFN srl.

The idea at the base of this innovative range for outdoors has its roots in a strong tendency for bespoke items and constant research for unique solutions that can be applied to any design element.

Base units

All of the models in the collection can be fitted with three different types of base unit to adapt to the customer’s preferred style.

The Canopo and Aralia base units have a metal bridge element, covered in woven synthetic resin, with the unique feet that used on all of the products in the Canopo and Aralia ranges, to adapt perfectly to the chosen furnishing style.

The Polaris base is made with a linear metal band in the same material as the kitchen structure to create a less formal look.

Both types of base unit, like all of the kitchens, are perfect matches for the furniture in the Samuele Mazza Outdoor Collection. 

Materials

The units in the structure are made in iron, with ultra-resistant powder coating that meets the most stringent criteria from tests of resistance to weather conditions.

The kitchen tops, like the table tops, are made in food grade porcelain stoneware and are resistant to frost and heat, as well as to UV rays. They are also stain proof and colour fast. The stoneware comes in a range of different finishes that perfectly reproduce fine natural marble.

All outdoor kitchens sold by DFN can be customised by adding units, domestic appliances and accessories that make them as functional and versatile as possible, as well as to meet any customer requirements.

On request, all kitchens can be made to fit the customer’s domestic appliances, and with equipment from preferred brands.
