MacKenzie Posted June 29, 2020 Report Posted June 29, 2020 Awesome, I love the different areas, each one is so interesting and different from the others. 1
Steve M Posted June 29, 2020 Report Posted June 29, 2020 That was quite the transformation and beautiful job! Bonus points for the Japanese float I saw hanging with the tiles. Did that end up outside? 1 1
Basher Posted June 29, 2020 Report Posted June 29, 2020 Great photos Tekobo.It looks like you have numerous hot spots, and cool spots depending on the time of the year and the time of the day.Makes for a well designed garden.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 1
jonj Posted June 29, 2020 Report Posted June 29, 2020 Whoa! What a great combination of KKs and Argentine grill and garden! Terrific! 1 1
tekobo Posted June 30, 2020 Author Report Posted June 30, 2020 Thanks all. The fact that we now have somewhere to sit near the KKs and Argentinian BBQ is great. People can help out and I can be part of the conversation as opposed to having to scurry round the corner to cook. Moving the KKs round to their new position means friends sitting around don't interfere with direct access to the grills and I can move easily between the Argentinian BBQ, the storage underneath it and the KKs. I am so happy we paid attention to sorting out our outside space this year. @Steve M, that float is still in Roy's garage. He is a keen fisherman and brought us a nice trout the other week. 4
Tucker Posted July 1, 2020 Report Posted July 1, 2020 your space looks wonderful and inviting. tile back splash behind the Argentine grill is a great touch. really like the table between the two KK's, great idea. lotsa good cookin' gonna happen there! 1

We are really pleased with the bridging table. We asked the chippie to finish it like he would have for a yacht so we can leave it outdoors through the summer. The only big fail on this reno was the "bespoke" cover that I had made for both KKs. Shapeless disaster and probably too difficult to handle on a wet winter's day in any case. Thinking I will dismantle the centre table in the winter and get wings to store under individual KK covers instead. And no, that string at the bottom right does NOT work for tightening things up. The fabric is so stiff that you would shred your hands long before you got any decent gathers.
