Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @senseipaul. It's brilliant to have you join us, and many thanks for sharing your project.
You've created a wonderful alfresco space there, and I love the additional plants to green up the space. The timberwork on the wall is also a nice touch.
Many thanks for sharing, and great work.

Let me also extend my congratulations to you for creating a terrific alfresco area, @senseipaul. I love how you've created a space that can remain functional throughout the year.
How has it held up over time? And any words of advice to those who may be looking to design their own alfresco kitchen?
Thank you for sharing this terrific project once again. We look forward to seeing more of your work.

Hi @senseipaul,
Hope all is well.
Your outdoor kitchen has proved popular with the community so we are interested in creating a Featured Project article. Do you have any other photos we could use? It would be great to see what the space was like before you started work, and any in-progress shots you might have. Could you also please clarify how this space can be opened and closed according to the weather and seasons?
Many thanks,
Jason
