Layout Overview
Layout Dimensions: 100″ Wide x 111″ Deep
You can build this layout as a mirror image of what is shown in the drawings.
This island layout places a gas grill at the center of a wrap-around bar, creating a compact kitchen where cooking and gathering happen in the same space. It works well on patios where the kitchen is meant to feel social and accessible rather than set apart. Because the bar fully surrounds the island, the layout benefits from enough room to keep people moving easily around it.

Why This Layout Works
This layout works because it keeps everything close and intuitive. The wrap-around bar defines the cooking area while giving guests a natural place to sit, talk, and stay involved without getting in the way of the grill.
Gas grilling lends itself to frequent, everyday use, and this island format supports that simplicity. Prep, cooking, and serving all take place in a single continuous zone, keeping the experience relaxed and efficient.
For homeowners who want a versatile, grill-focused kitchen that encourages conversation and casual gathering, this layout creates a clear centerpiece with an easy, natural flow around it.
