Outdoor fireplace projects to inspire you

It’s time to get excited for the summer season! And, to fuel your fire, we have a few show-stopping outdoor spaces.   

In this article, we showcase our favourite projects from the past year to inspire you. Whether you like cosy and intimate or bold and elegant, these homes and outdoor fires are sure to impress. 

Outdoor fireplaces at the latest Queenstown destination

Have you heard about this new dining experience in Arrowtown? Labelled as Queenstown’s food and wine playground, Ayrburn is a curation of restaurants, bars, and wine tastings, complete with the outdoor dining setup of our dreams.

This impressive development is seamlessly integrated into the natural beauty of its surroundings. The development team at Winton cleverly incorporated new features into the historic site, proudly celebrating the 160-year-old Ayrburn story within the modern context. 

We especially love the Woolshed, a tiered dining space alongside the river. Complete with elegant stonework, rustic seating, and seasonal landscaping, this space is designed to be enjoyed all year round. 

Even in the crisp winter temperatures, guests are kept toasty warm with the powerful heat from our T1600 firebox and Burton outdoor fires. Strategically placed to heat each zone and clad with local stone, these fireplaces complement the atmosphere perfectly. 

Wood burning outdoor fireplace in New Plymouth

In our much-loved hometown, this family home has a special place in our hearts. Featuring our Burton outdoor fire, this outdoor living space is ideal for entertaining crowds as well as intimate evenings with just the family. 

We love the lush green backdrop of native trees, especially with the glow of golden hour contrasting with the sleek black steel. Whether to generate heat or roast marshmallows, the Burton sets the perfect atmosphere for long-lasting memories. And, looking at these photos, this family has already been putting this to the test.

Urban retreat and outdoor kitchen in Auckland

This Greenlane property is built for luxury living, complete with a swimming pool, private spa, outdoor lounge and kitchen, lush garden, pizza oven, and a Trendz outdoor fireplace. 

Designed by WatGunLow, this serene retreat expands the liveable space outdoors. We love the secluded feel, providing an inner-city escape for the homeowners to host friends and wind down. 
 
In an entertaining area like this, what better fireplace than the Twin Peak? With the swinging cooking grill, these homeowners can easily prepare impressive meals while simultaneously keeping their guests warm. The powerful heat output will keep them cosy for hours, no matter what season. 

Outdoor lounge and custom fireplace in Lake Hayes

This site captured our hearts, with majestic mountain ranges seen from every angle. To make the most of the surroundings, Crosson Architects and Alpine Group Construction created the ultimate outdoor lounge. 

This space feels effortless, with comfortable seating and a powerful outdoor fire to provide radiant heat. With its signature wood-grain finish, the Twin Peak design serves as a focal point where friends and family can relax, chat, and dine all year round. 

The Twin Peak has everything this space needs, from an integrated cooking grill to the built-in steel wood boxes. From intimate winter evenings with a glass of wine to evening swims in summer, we know this will be the ultimate social hub. 

If you want this look in a more compact space, check out our Single Peak design, featuring all the same benefits on a smaller scale. 

Outdoor dining and lounge space in Mt Campbell

Our Burton fireplace looks right at home in this poolside space, keeping the homeowners warm all year round. We love how they’ve paired it with custom timber panelling and matt black, creating the perfect blend of warm tones and sleek lines. 

We also love the way the natural surroundings of Mt Campbell create an ever-changing backdrop, with captivating sunsets behind the impressive Kahurangi National Park. 

If you’re looking for ideas of what to include in your outdoor space, this one has it all — plenty of comfortable seating, a dining space, a spa pool, an outdoor kitchen, and even a TV for late-night poolside movies. If you want this look in a more compact space, check out our Mini Burton design, featuring all the same benefits on a smaller scale.
