You can build this layout as a mirror imagefrom what is shown in the drawings.

This compact L-shaped layout pairs a grill island with a kamado to create a flexible kitchen that fits comfortably into smaller patios. It works well where space is limited but both everyday grilling and longer cooks are part of how the kitchen will be used. Because the footprint is efficient, the layout benefits from thoughtful spacing to keep movement easy and natural.

Why This Layout Works

This layout works because it keeps two cooking styles organized without spreading the kitchen out. The grill island handles quick, frequent meals, while the kamado adds depth for slower, hands-on cooking—all within a tight, functional footprint.

The L-shape keeps prep, cooking, and serving areas close without feeling crowded. That structure helps the kitchen feel intentional and well balanced, even on smaller patios.

For homeowners who want flexibility without overbuilding, this layout delivers strong cooking capability with a natural flow that suits compact outdoor spaces.

How This Layout Is Built

This layout is built using Cornerstone’s Unity Smart Modules—a modular system designed to work together as complete outdoor kitchens. That’s what allows the layout to be adjusted, expanded, or refined without starting over or redesigning from scratch.
The important part is the order: choose a layout that fits your space and how you want to use it first, then configure the details as your plans come together. The system exists to support the design—not dictate it.
