While designing a planned redo of your outdoor space, you might consider incorporating an outdoor kitchen space, especially if you enjoy entertaining or spending family down-time outdoors. With an abundance of Unilock products available, your design is limited only by your imagination. Allow your landscape designer to assist you with finding inspiration and planning out your outdoor kitchen theme in Des Moines, Quad Cities, Cedar Rapids, or Waterloo, IA. For maximum satisfaction, the theme ultimately chosen should be in-line with your personal tastes, existing architecture, and superior functionality for your planned use.
Rustic Glamour
If you’d like to create an outdoor kitchen that fits the natural environment but enhanced by a touch of elegance, consider a rustic glamour theme for your outdoor kitchen. By choosing this theme, your guests and family will be charmed by either the glamour of the space or the naturalness that has been imbued to the area. Rivenstone pavers and Olde Quarry vertical building units combine to create this theme well.
Rivenstone pavers come in three colors: Bluestone, Canyon, or Sahara, in three sizes. In addition, the texture of Rivenstone is ultra-realistic using Reala Surface technology to ensure that each item is individually cast from one of thousands of natural stone molds. The vertical building unit, Olde Quarry, is an impressive, weathered material that also comes in three sizes in addition to corner and coping pieces. Choose from the colors of Fieldstone, Coffee Creek, Prairie, River, Sandstone, or Sierra to complement your choice of paver. By combining these products, incorporating rustic accents, and embracing elegance, you can create the ideal outdoor kitchen space.

Another option for your outdoor kitchen is to embrace a coastal theme. Whether you live near a body of water, incorporate water elements, or enjoy a reminder of coastal life, this theme is perfect for you. Pair Thornbury paving stones and Rivercrest Wall vertical units to complete this theme.
Thornbury pavers are fade resistant and have a rich flagstone texture.
