Systems and design

What outdoor kitchen systems does Novara offer?

Novara offers five outdoor kitchen systems: N1, minimalist and focused on the essentials; N2, with total freedom of size and finish; N3, floating architecture with sculptural proportions; PURA, straight geometries in metal and stone; and LAVA, in glazed volcanic stone. PURA and LAVA are collections designed by the studio CirculoCuadrado.

All are modular and customizable with each system’s finishes and appliances. Compare the systems.

What determines the cost of a Novara outdoor kitchen?

The cost of a Novara outdoor kitchen depends on the system, dimensions, number of modules, finishes and appliances you choose. Because every kitchen is custom, pricing depends on your configuration, so the best next step is to talk to a design specialist.

You can design your kitchen and get a quote with the Novara configurator or request one from a design specialist.

Can I get a custom Novara kitchen?

Yes. Novara is the outdoor kitchen brand with the most customization options. Every system is modular and mixes finishes, materials and appliances, and the N2 system also offers special widths to fit any space.

Tell us about your project in the contact form and a design specialist will help you shape it.

What’s the difference between the N1, N2 and N3 systems?

N1 is Novara’s essential system: minimalist design with mineral surfaces and C5-M lacquers. N2 is where the Novara systems began and is the most flexible: it supports special sizes and HPL finishes. N3 is the masterpiece: cantilevered side modules that create a floating architecture.

Explore each one on the systems page.

What is the PURA collection?

PURA is a Novara collection designed by the Barcelona studio CirculoCuadrado and launched at Milano Design Week 2024. It redefines minimalism with straight geometries and a pairing of two premium finishes: liquid metal (gold, copper, bronze or titanium) and Breccia Imperiale natural stone.

Discover PURA.

What is the LAVA collection?

LAVA is Novara’s collection in glazed volcanic stone, designed by CirculoCuadrado: rounded edges, induction built in beneath the countertop (Novara x NOVY Undercover) and a hidden sink. Its Magma finishes and lacquers are named after volcanoes: Etna, Fuji, Teide and Timanfaya.

Discover LAVA.

How does LAVA’s hidden induction work?

On LAVA, the induction cooktop disappears beneath the glazed lava surface thanks to Novara x NOVY Undercover technology: no cooktop, no frame, no black glass. The countertop is one continuous surface, and when you need it, it becomes a cooking zone.

Can I design my Novara kitchen online?

Yes. The Novara Builder configurator lets you choose your system, modules, materials and finishes, see the kitchen in your own space with augmented reality and get a personalized quote.

Open the configurator.

Materials and finishes

What materials and finishes does Novara use?

Novara offers more than 50 finishes in 7 materials made for the outdoors: mineral surface (Dekton® and Inalco®), C5-M lacquer, HPL (Trespa®), liquid metal, natural stone, magma (glazed lava) and fabric for LAVA’s benches and sofas.

Each system has its own palette: only N2 offers HPL, only PURA offers metal and natural stone, and only LAVA offers glazed lava and fabrics. See all finishes.

What is Q-XTREM® technology?

Q-XTREM® is a technology developed by Novara and inspired by the marine industry and the finishes on luxury yachts. It protects surfaces from humidity, salt, UV radiation, temperature swings and impact, with low water absorption and easy upkeep.

More about Q-XTREM®.

Will a Novara kitchen hold up by the ocean?

Yes. Novara kitchens are built for marine environments: Q-XTREM® technology stands up to humidity and salt, and the C5-M lacquers are rated for the corrosivity category of marine environments. That’s why they perform in oceanfront homes, penthouses and exposed terraces.

What is C5-M lacquer?

C5-M lacquer is the marine-grade lacquer Novara uses on the N1, N2, N3 and LAVA systems. C5-M is the corrosivity category for marine environments. It comes in 12 colors, from Blanc to Antracite and Rosso, plus four volcanic tones exclusive to LAVA.

Can I choose a Dekton countertop?

Yes. Novara works with Dekton® by Cosentino, an ultra-compact surface that stands up to sun, heat and stains, in finishes like Keyla, Kreta, Rem, Sabbia, Sirius, Zenith and Grafite for N1 and N2. More about Dekton in outdoor kitchens.

Can I mix different finishes in one kitchen?

Yes. Mixing materials is part of customizing a Novara. For example, a mineral-surface countertop with C5-M lacquer fronts, or on PURA, liquid metal with natural stone. Which combinations are possible depends on the system. A design specialist can help you choose, or you can try them yourself in the configurator.

Appliance

What appliances can be built into a Novara kitchen?

Novara offers 12 appliances that integrate into every system: Argentine grill, charcoal grill, kamado, gas grill, faucets and sinks, burners, paella burner, beer tap, pizza oven, refrigerator and ice bin, wine fridge, and a wooden utensil holder.

See all appliances.

Can I have a beer tap in my outdoor kitchen?

Yes. Novara builds a beer tap into its outdoor kitchens without breaking the line of the cabinetry, alongside the wine fridge and refrigerator to keep drinks ready. How to serve every drink at the right temperature.

Which grill should I choose: charcoal, gas, kamado or Argentine?

It depends on how you cook. A gas grill is the quickest and most convenient, charcoal gives you classic smoky flavor, a ceramic kamado is ideal for low-and-slow cooking, and an Argentine grill gives you total control of the fire for a true asado. In a Novara kitchen, you can build in more than one.

Can I use the pizza oven year-round?

Yes. The pizza oven built into a Novara kitchen works in every season. Besides pizza, it’s great for bread, roasts and vegetables. Ideas for using it year-round.

Maintenance and warranty

Are Novara kitchens easy to maintain?

Yes. Novara’s materials are low-maintenance and stain-resistant thanks to Q-XTREM® technology. For everyday care, soap and water on the countertop is all you need. Clean the grill after each use with a brush and degreaser, and the sink with disinfectant.

Maintenance and cleaning guide.

Can I leave my outdoor kitchen outside year-round?

Yes. Novara kitchens are designed to live outdoors in any climate: Q-XTREM® stands up to rain, humidity, intense sun and temperature swings. Care varies by climate. Protecting a kitchen from cold and snow is different from protecting it from heat and salt air, so we recommend adjusting how often you clean it.

What is Novara’s Lifetime Support?

Lifetime Support is Novara’s lifetime after-sales service: technical assistance and original parts even after the warranty ends, whether for accidents or wear. Learn more about Lifetime Support.
