Room & Board and Room & Board Business Interiors, the home furnishing brand’s commercial arm, introduce their inaugural launch into the outdoor kitchen market with three new contemporary products.
The offerings feature storage cabinets, islands, bar counters and pre-configured kitchen sets. With expertise in modern and durable design, Room & Board is entering a booming industry. With exclusive design partnerships with Loll Designs and Sielaff, the new outdoor kitchen products optimize outdoor space and serve as sustainable, practical and maintenance-free solutions for commercial and residential spaces.
“The evolution to outdoor spaces is a result of the way we want to live and work,” explains Elise Nicpon, director of business customer experience at Room & Board Business Interiors. “Our 2023 sustainability framework is better products, better people and a better planet. This new launch, with our valuable eco-conscious partners, achieves all three.”
Room & Board’s partnership with Loll Designs, a leader in eco-friendly outdoor furniture, continues with the new Granger Outdoor Kitchen line, designed exclusively for Room & Board. Loll uses recycled materials to make long-lasting, maintenance-free outdoor furniture. The Granger products are a part of Loll’s Material Reutilization Program, offering businesses a circular furnishings option when shopping with Room & Board Business Interiors.
“As a company striving for unique designs and a truly green quality product, it was evident that Room & Board Business Interiors shared those same values,” says Eric Swanson, president of Loll Designs.
The high-quality, durable and sustainable Granger line includes the Granger Kitchen Island, a versatile workspace available in 24-inch and 48-inch widths with fixed open shelving for communal spaces. Complementing the functional island, the Granger Outdoor Storage Cabinet offers ample closed storage, designed with two sliding front doors and adjustable interior shelving.
Crafted in the U.S. from resilient materials, the high-density polyethylene is nonporous and waterproof. Colors and UV stabilizers are mixed into recycled plastic by experienced artisans to minimize fading. Combining the two product building blocks, the pre-configured Granger Outdoor Kitchen Sets create a robust outdoor environment in sleek modern colors such as putty, gray and black.
Also new in 2023 is Room & Board’s Parsons Outdoor Counter Table, an inspired pairing of the iconic Parsons table and elegant outdoor contract grade materials. Handcrafted domestically in Wisconsin by Sielaff, the linear counter is designed to withstand all weather conditions with a structurally simplistic appeal.
It’s available now in seven sizes including narrow open shelving for bar stools. The hand-welded frame uses partially recycled materials in 11 outdoor-rated options including stainless steel, graphite and onyx glass. Contemporary surface tops range from marbled white quartz to mesabi black granite.
