Systems and design

Which outdoor kitchen systems does Novara offer?

Novara offers five outdoor kitchen systems: N1, minimalist and focused on the essentials; N2, with complete freedom of dimensions and finishes; N3, floating architecture with sculptural proportions; PURA, with 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 can be personalised with the finishes and appliances of each system. Compare the systems.

What determines the price of a Novara outdoor kitchen?

The price of a Novara outdoor kitchen depends on the system, the dimensions, the number of modules, and the finishes and appliances you choose. Each system shows its guide price on its own page.

You can design your kitchen and get a quotation with the Novara configurator, or ask an adviser for one.

Can I have a bespoke Novara kitchen?

Yes: Novara is the outdoor kitchen brand with the most personalisation options. All the systems are modular and combine finishes, materials and appliances, and the N2 system also accommodates special widths to suit any space.

Tell us about your project in the contact form and an adviser will help you define it.

What is the difference between the N1, N2 and N3 systems?

N1 is Novara’s essential system: minimalist in design, with sintered stone surfaces and C5-M lacquers. N2 is the origin of the Novara systems and the most flexible: it allows special dimensions and also HPL finishes. N3 is the masterpiece: cantilevered side modules that create a floating architecture.

Discover 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 combination of two noble 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 worktop (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 hob disappears beneath the glazed lava surface thanks to Novara x NOVY Undercover technology: there is no hob, no frame and no black glass. The worktop is continuous and, when you need it, becomes a cooking zone.

Can I design my Novara kitchen online?

Yes. The Novara Builder configurator lets you choose the system, modules, materials and finishes, see the kitchen in your own space using augmented reality, and receive a personalised quotation.

Open the configurator.

Materials and finishes

Which materials and finishes does Novara use?

Novara offers more than 50 finishes in 7 materials designed for the outdoors: sintered stone (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 has metal and natural stone, and only LAVA has glazed lava and fabrics. View all finishes.

What is Q-XTREM® technology?

Q-XTREM® is a technology developed by Novara and inspired by the shipbuilding industry and the finishes of luxury yachts. It protects surfaces from humidity, salinity, UV radiation, temperature changes and knocks, with low water absorption and easy maintenance.

More about Q-XTREM®.

Can a Novara kitchen withstand the seaside?

Yes. Novara kitchens are designed for marine environments: Q-XTREM® technology withstands humidity and salinity, and the C5-M lacquers are suited to the corrosivity category of marine environments. That is why they work in beachfront homes, penthouses and exposed terraces.

What is C5-M marine lacquer?

C5-M lacquer is the marine lacquer Novara uses on the N1, N2, N3 and LAVA systems. C5-M is the corrosivity category for marine environments. There are 12 colours, from Blanc to Antracite and Rosso, plus four volcanic shades exclusive to LAVA.

Can I choose a Dekton worktop?

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

Can I combine different finishes in one kitchen?

Yes: combining materials is part of Novara’s personalisation. For example, a sintered stone worktop with C5-M lacquer fronts, or, in PURA, liquid metal with natural stone. The possible combinations depend on the system; an adviser can help you choose them, or you can try them out in the configurator.

Appliances

Which appliances can be integrated into a Novara kitchen?

Novara offers 12 appliances that can be built into all its systems: Argentinian grill, charcoal barbecue, kamado, gas barbecue, taps and sinks, hobs, paella burner, beer tap, pizza oven, fridge and ice bucket, wine cooler and wooden cutlery holder.

View 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 cooler and fridge so your drinks are ready when you are. How to serve each drink at its ideal temperature.

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

It depends on how you cook: the gas barbecue is the most practical and quickest; charcoal gives the traditional smoky flavour; the ceramic kamado is ideal for slow cooking, and the Argentinian grill lets you roast with total control of the fire. In a Novara kitchen, you can build in more than one.

Can the pizza oven be used all year round?

Yes. The pizza oven built into a Novara kitchen works in any season: besides pizzas, it is ideal for bread, roasts and vegetables. Ideas for using it all year round.

Maintenance and warranty

Are Novara kitchens easy to maintain?

Yes. Novara’s materials are low-maintenance and repel stains thanks to Q-XTREM® technology. For everyday care, soap and water are enough on the worktop; the grill is cleaned after each use with a brush and degreaser, and the sink with disinfectant.

Maintenance and cleaning guide.

Can I leave the kitchen outdoors all year round?

Yes. Novara kitchens are designed to stay outdoors in any climate: Q-XTREM® withstands rain, humidity, strong sun and temperature changes. Care varies with the climate: protecting it from cold and snow is not the same as protecting it from heat and salt air, which is why we recommend adjusting how often you clean it.

What is Novara’s Lifetime Support?

Lifetime Support is Novara’s lifelong after-sales service: technical assistance and original parts even after the warranty has expired, in the event of accidents or wear. More about Lifetime Support.

Purchase and project

How can I buy a Novara kitchen?

Novara kitchens are not sold online: each one is a project. Complete the contact form with your country, your profile (private client, professional or distributor) and the details of your project, and an adviser will guide you through the whole process, or visit an official distributor.

What does a Novara kitchen include?

Every Novara kitchen is designed as a complete system, not as separate pieces: the layout of the modules, worktops, finishes, appliances and features are all planned together for your space.

Does Novara have official dealers?

Yes. Novara works with a network of official distributors, selected for their professionalism and their ability to represent the quality of the brand. Find your nearest.

Do you work with architects and interior designers?

Yes. Novara works with architects, interior designers and landscape architects on projects such as Villa Veles (Mallorca) and Conde Orgaz (Madrid). Tell us about your role in the contact form and the projects team will be in touch. View projects.
