Green Oak Carpentry Announces New Partnership with Grillo Living

Celebrating 30 years of craftsmanship with a shared vision for beautiful outdoor living.

As Green Oak Carpentry celebrates its 30th anniversary, we’re delighted to announce a new partnership with Grillo Living, one of Britain’s leading designers and manufacturers of premium outdoor kitchens.

Having become a Silver TradePro Partner, we’re excited to bring together two British brands that share the same passion for exceptional craftsmanship, thoughtful design and creating spaces that bring people together.

For three decades, we’ve been crafting bespoke oak-framed buildings that blur the boundaries between home and garden. From handcrafted pergolas and garden rooms to outdoor entertaining spaces and complete oak-framed kitchens, we’ve spent years refining a centuries-old craft and making it relevant for modern living.

As outdoor living continues to evolve, partnering with Grillo felt like the natural next step.

A Partnership Built on Shared Values

The best partnerships happen when two companies share the same philosophy.

At Green Oak Carpentry, our ethos is simple: Beautiful Timber. Beyond Tradition. Every structure we create is crafted by hand, created with care and designed to stand the test of time.

Grillo shares that same commitment.

Their vision has always been to create beautifully designed, British-made outdoor kitchens that can transform any outdoor space, whether it’s a compact city courtyard, a contemporary family garden or a sprawling country estate. Their modular kitchens are fully configurable, allowing every project to be tailored to suit the way each client wants to live, cook and entertain.

Like our handcrafted oak frames, every Grillo kitchen is built for life outdoors. Designed and manufactured in England, each kitchen combines exceptional engineering with timeless aesthetics, creating spaces that are as durable as they are beautiful. Their mantra says it perfectly:

Built British. Built Strong. Built Beautiful.

It’s a philosophy that feels remarkably familiar.

Designed Around the Way You Live

No two homes are the same.

That’s why every Green Oak Carpentry structure is designed specifically for its setting, its architecture and the people who will enjoy it for years to come.

Grillo approaches outdoor kitchens in exactly the same way.

Their flexible cabinetry, integrated appliances and wide range of layouts allow kitchens to be configured around any space, creating bespoke outdoor entertaining areas that complement the surrounding landscape rather than compete with it.

Together, we’re able to create complete outdoor living environments where handcrafted oak architecture and premium outdoor kitchens work seamlessly as one.

Whether it’s a sheltered oak pergola with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, a garden room designed for year-round entertaining or a contemporary outdoor dining space, our shared approach puts craftsmanship, longevity and thoughtful design at the heart of every project.

See the Partnership Come to Life at RHS Sandringham

We’ll be officially launching our partnership this July at the RHS Sandringham Flower Show, where visitors will be able to experience the collaboration first-hand.

Our stand will feature a bespoke handcrafted oak pergola, created especially for the show, alongside a fully installed Grillo outdoor kitchen complete with premium barbecue, drinks fridge, sink, high-end cabinetry, bar seating and outdoor dining area.

Rather than simply displaying products, we’re creating an inspiring outdoor room — a space designed to demonstrate how beautifully handcrafted timber structures and premium outdoor kitchens can work together to transform gardens into places where family and friends naturally gather.

It’s a celebration of outdoor living, British craftsmanship and thoughtful design.

Exactly the way we believe it should be.

Looking Ahead

As we mark 30 years of Green Oak Carpentry, we’re proud to be partnering with businesses that share our commitment to quality without compromise.

The collaboration with Grillo Living opens up exciting possibilities for homeowners looking to create complete outdoor living spaces that are every bit as considered and beautifully crafted as the homes they sit beside.

It’s more than a partnership. It’s two British brands, united by craftsmanship, driven by quality, and inspired by creating spaces that bring people together for years to come.

“We’ve spent the last three decades refining the craft of oak framing for modern living. Grillo has done something equally remarkable with the outdoor kitchen. Bringing the two together felt like the perfect fit. We’re united by a shared belief that great design, honest craftsmanship and quality materials create spaces where life’s best moments naturally happen.”
