The Breakfast Bar

Few additions to enhance the nook

Worked on our outdoor breakfast bar this weekend. Here is the final result and a few progress shots to show how I created it. Time to get some stools!

I used the existing columns of the patio to carry the larger weight load from the new main frame which I built inbetween the columns.

After

I then built the secondary cantilevered frame into the main frame, which I stepped down for some visual interest.

We had painted the screening panels Woodland grey (previous project) which we used again on the bar frame to blend in into the rest of the structure.

I used Ekodeck composite cladding and framed it with some 90x45 and used some angle brackets to float the actual platforms.

Before

Cheers

@diy_hausdesigns  @This looks great. What did you use to fix the 90 x 45 to the brick work

Hi @Matrossi, 

Thank you kindly. The section adjacent to the wall is cantilevered from the section on the right. While it may look like it's fixed to the wall it is not attached to the brick wall at all.

See image below of how I connected it.

Hope that helps
