BBQ in a country house

BBQ in the area always has a special status. It should not be just a place for cooking summer meals in the garden. Like no other structure, barbecue expresses individuality of the owner, his tastes, religious preferences and the level of self-esteem. Those who have a sitting area with barbecue even in dreams and plans, FORUMHOUSE experts recommend: Remember your true desires and not be lazy - then everything will turn out well.

How to create a beautiful barbecue area

Everything depends on the country the site owner and his relationship to himself - reflectsMaxim Solomatin, sculptor, director Unformat design studio. - If it is set to self-improvement, the expression of his personality and will not be lazy, then sooner or later be cultivated spiritually them the space required to acquire its own style, its taste and its individuality.

Many of the things people do "everything" to get a "no worse than others." This is the root of all evil: the man hides his identity, afraid to seem familiar dacha odd or even abnormal. But your task - to make a barbecue area, which is you, not your friends, it will be comfortable as much as possible.

We have to think about yourself and that this place has been good to you. Therefore, the first postulate: if you are going to create a space for recreation, it is necessary first of all to think about yourself and that this place has been good to you! It is necessary to dig a well and to understand that love, and that - no, - says Maxim Solomatin. - None of the designer will not be able to climb into your head and understand what you mean, talking about the style of your space and how you think he is in reality. Without its own creative torments can not do, on a need to work, and then even a layman can easily help you find "that thing." Not please everyone!

Second, ignoring the difficulties and too lazy to constantly try to improve the created object. During the use of space are beginning to emerge hundreds of little things that can not be foreseen. Any place you want to serve, nothing eternal does not happen. If you want the object to be durable, take care of them. Patience and a little effort.

These are the basic axioms of good results for the creation of individual space.

Now, the tuning of expression, patience and hard work, you can start building.

• The project is a barbecue area! Development of ideas - this is important!
• Drawing sketches and choice of materials - this is a must!
• Combining the image with the landscape area, and try to take into account as much as possible details: wind rose, shade and sun, summer and winter.
• Choosing builders (as lucky here) and permanent control over them.
• Logistics and selection of high-quality materials.
• Construction.

Barbecue under a canopy where to place

None of the garden is not like the other, and it seems that the choice of location for a barbecue area - something purely individual. But designers believe that there are two optimal variant of its location: the first - a practical, independent The distance from the house, bath and gazebo, and the second - in a remote corner of the garden, with views of the beautiful a place.

- In a first embodiment, a barbecue area in functionality is considered rather as an extension of a country house, the kitchen, said Olga Pirogov, director of design studio "Den". - In the second case, it is located near some raisins garden: there may be a small fountain, a beautiful flower bed on the lawn or alpine garden - an object which can be enjoyed when going with friends and family.

Structure, composition materials

barbecue area design is dependent on many factors, including on whether you will use it only in the summer, or in the off-season or winter vacation and supposed too. But, as experience shows, 90% of people come to the fact that businesses around the BBQ enclosed gazebo.

Lyudmila Mogutovo (Deputy Director of the company "Studio of comfort"):

- BBQ - still, big or small - is a garden complex, which includes a grill area, work area, washing... Ideally, this complex was closed, at least from the top, from the rain and other precipitation. People who received the first experience, are aware of this. If you build a gazebo with an open aperture, then a year or two it are glazed and insulated. Complex barbecue - this is not a budget structure, and build around him something to protect the much more correct than to clear the snow after the winter.

therefore BBQ under the roof and with walls and gaining all gaining in popularity in recent years.

- barbecue area design depends on the owner's wishes, - says Olga Pirogov. - The most common version: with a canopy, as an extension of the arbor. This is an attempt to "kill two birds at once", combining a relaxation area with fireplace. I think we have this tendency emerged from the small-sized suburban areas. Some make a barbecue area without a pass or a very small shed-roof and bowline arrange recreation area a little distance, so that it does not enter the smoke. In my experience, enclosed gazebo is chosen by those who are going to insulate them to be used not only for the summer, but also for the transition and even the winter holidays. Naturally, in this case, a barbecue set inside the pavilions, but there has to be well thought out range hood, chimney ...

Material object, according to Maxim Solomatin, chosen most often based on the idea of ​​its creation, and it is important not to turn off common sense. "I would even say that the material is often dictated by the idea of ​​creating an object", - said the sculptor.

BBQ consists, firstly, of a base on which the structure is placed. It is concrete, which can be finished with stone, tile or terrace board. Then to the construction itself: the hearth, cooker hood above it that resemble smoke from the barbecue area and the so-called "wings", which bear the functional load. Often near the hearth arrange space for smoker, a grill area, plate making, which will appear or some iron pots for cooking, sink, cutting zone ...

How to choose a center

Hearth - the heart of the barbecue area, its most important element. This can be proved for a stationary hearth, Russian mini-oven with flame chamber, smokehouse, Pompeian oven, even a portable BBQ on the lawn... A few years ago were popular Tandoor, now they are inferior to Russian stoves: cooking principle - the same, but in the Russian stove is much more functionality.

Lyudmila Mogutovo:

- I like braziers camera Russian oven. I can say from experience of its customers: those who have the flame chamber, is not fried skewers, almost all dishes are cooked in the Russian oven. They tell me: grill area we use only occasionally, as a fire, and cook in the oven. And baking can be done, and protomai and meat bake - many people like the taste as in the tandoor. This is probably the best thing that you can think of.

The choice of focus, many people follow the principle of "simpler - the better", and all the rest prefer the open hearth with supports for skewers and grills. Incidentally, one of the word barbecue - large frame with grate for cooking meat. It is this focus creates a special, romantic atmosphere, which is an integral part - the smell of smoke and the wood in the fire.

holiday atmosphere with their hands

 When the "skeleton" is built, you need to fill it yourself and those you love. The more details will be used, the better, the main thing - that they liked you, the counting Maxim Solomatin:

- From my own experience I can say that the person who will constantly try to improve the set up, perhaps even altering the initial concept will necessarily those details that are necessary in interior.

 It is important to all: design, light, decor, interior. It is the little things create the right atmosphere.

Lyudmila Mogutovo:

- Many people do not pay attention to interior lighting, taking a purely functional, Behold, there is a stove on which to cook anything - and everything, and that is around, do not always think. And in vain. BBQ in the house - a special zone. When a man holds the fire for some time, he needs to rest, not only physically but also emotionally.

Lyudmila said that the furniture and decorative elements should be selected under the section. For the portion where the house and other buildings made of wood, a barbecue zone should provide massive wooden work zone. If the site contains forged design in this style in the regeneration of the arbor, it is desirable to write and hearth: stylized door with forged elements, tongs, hooks, fireplace sets ...

As the functionality of the selection of furniture should be based on the owners' preferences. Someone who likes to sit with friends and enjoy a glass of beer - there would be appropriate bar. And so on.

What else you need to think - it's about gardening barbecue area. relaxation zone from the base portion barbecue complex often separated by hedges. By the way, a hedge of conifers not only beautify the site, but will saturate the air and healing volatile production.

Sofya Kovalenko (landscaper)

- Landscaping - individual and creative process. Some people prefer to place next to the barbecue area a small ornamental garden or lawn, that looks good. But looks interesting design ornamental plants - shrubs, suppose. You can set any lattice, a pergola to cover this area. A place in the pergola vines: girlish grapes, clematis, climbing roses. Shrubs can choose physocarpus. It looks wonderful viburnum buldenezh.

Good examples barbecue areas

We suggest you consider the examples of projects BBQ areas which were kindly provided by our experts. These are the cases when we see that if you follow for their real desires, you get a real piece of art.

Lyudmila Mogutovo:

- Now I have to develop a gazebo with a barbecue area: garden furniture is made in the Scandinavian style. The octagonal buildings such pockets are usually placed in the middle. We went from this idea: focus placed in a corner, and went on his wings. At one side - washing, passing into the bar, the other - a soft area made as a podium with large mattresses, pillows.

That is, a multi-purpose area: not just a place where the food, but also a relaxation area. Pantry area styled in the style of the ancient northern nationalities, the subject we are subject to all materials (mainly wood), painted some individual dostochek, reechek, textiles and objects interior. The customer came up to make a lamp-fan under the hood (you can see in the first photo). And another interesting point: the gazebo window overlooking the river, hence the idea of ​​the bar - people will enjoy not only the food, but also the view from the window.

Maxim Solomatin:

- I can give an example of one of the objects: the gazebo barbecue "of the Incas, the Warrior and the Clown." The owner of the site - a biker who loves rock music. The idea of ​​creating a brazier served as the song of "Alice", "The monk, a warrior and a clown."

Barbecue is in the shape of a regular octagon in the base, the hood-roof supported by eight carved pillars, three of which are songs of the characters, the rest are made different pattern. Barbecue is located in the center of the furnace is lined with refractory bricks without blowing (!). Thus gathering the company gets around the hearth, and while preparing meat or rice, are very spirited conversation.

In the photo - a barbecue area with a roof, a great example of the solutions:

In the five years of its use, it became clear why people are always attracted to the fire while cooking. And after going so intensive communication! Together with the heat of the brazier is splashed somehow easily released from the stress accumulated problems. I do not want to break up, I want to continue to communicate and maintain a fire.

Over time, the bone-chairs have been designed specifically for this grill, cutting table, lights appeared. Wood and marble countertops around the furnace were impractical and were replaced on the table of the art concrete. I just do not remember, but the idea proved to be very successful and popular.

we are now building two similar brazier. One is filled with characters of Russian fairy tales: Water, Baba Yaga, The Humpbacked Horse, Koschey Mermaid, Swan Princess, Goblin and hero. The second has a more profound idea: the fire gathered came from different countries and different times of giant warriors, bowed their heads to the fire and turned into a tree. Around the gazebo will be water, but can enter the bridge.

A lazy person is just not able to create around himself an interesting atmosphere

Here is an example of how to create a zone of barbecue with his own hands: when all the elements of the composition are united by one theme, a good result is obtained without a large financial costs.

This BBQ at the cottage based user FORUMHOUSE Fitil48 during pergolas hobbies. He got a few different buildings, each under its roof. The size of its area - only 5.63 weave, and there are already a house, sauna, shed and pond. But "place whenever the courtyard folding miracle on legs somehow not solid." There was a need in the normal brick fireplace. It became the center of the composition.

Fireplace stands on the foundation of the filler, in the masonry is not unusual, except for the arches: they have been made out of pieces of chipboard frame and hardboard. An important point: although each roof structures vary in size and area of ​​ramps, they have the same angle of inclination, and it also ensures the integrity of the composition.

Those whom made this area an impression barbecue at the cottage, photos and detailed story its construction can be viewed at the link.

Maxim Solomatin:

- Nature slowly and scrupulously tries to destroy any space that is trying to change the people. So the lazy person is just not able to create around himself an interesting atmosphere. If the fuse has passed and the man calmed down quickly enough personality will become a routine. And if the owner is looking for, and constantly brings in an object something new, this process is endless. The world and ourselves are constantly changing, our tastes and preferences. Therefore, after several years of any man she thinks "this is now generally be different... all done."
