Wood is a natural product. Knots, grain, small cracks and seams are normal and make every outdoor kitchen unique. The finish is different from that of an indoor kitchen and is made for outdoor use. The Louisiana is built from two-sided planed and dried douglas wood, the same wood used throughout the rest of the range. Planed wood is splinter-free and dried wood remains stable, which you'll notice especially after the first wet winter. If left untreated, the color will fade to silver-grey over one or two seasons; with an annual layer of wood oil it stays reddish-brown. In this model, the ceramic tile sits above the fridge, which requires a bit of know-how. A pan that has just come off the heat radiates its warmth downward, right above the cooling compartment, causing the compressor to run longer than necessary. Place a trivet in between or let the pan stand on the wooden section on the right for a minute first. Also, the fridge needs to release air at the back, so leave a few centimeters of clearance behind the cabinet.

• Terrace where the wall is on the left side, since the cabinet door swings to the right and stays clear.
• Balcony or narrow patio where 98.4 cm just fits past the table.
• Second cooling point by a pool or garden house, far from the indoor kitchen.
• Drinks for six to eight people: cold drinks within reach and a 98.4 cm worktop to place glasses and dishes on.

• Louisiana (98.4 cm): fridge on the left with the tile above it, cabinet on the right with a right-opening door.
• Outdoor kitchen VARETTI Velora 332 (157 cm): one panel wider, with the fridge in the middle and a cabinet on each side, also in natural douglas.
• Outdoor kitchen VARETTI Avelia 332 (157 cm): same layout as the Outdoor kitchen VARETTI Velora 332, in black-framed douglas.
• Outdoor kitchen VARETTI Arela 432 (205 cm): two panels wider, with fridge, drawer unit with four drawers and two cabinets.
