COEO: Design, Outdoor Cooking and Art of Living around the Fire
COEO is a French brand specialising in the design of outdoor kitchens, high-end fire pits, kamados, barbecues, planchas, outdoor furniture and cooking accessories. Far beyond simply manufacturing outdoor cooking equipment, COEO imagines objects capable of transforming outdoor spaces into true living areas where design, gastronomy and conviviality meet. Each COEO creation is based on the same ambition: to design beautiful, high-performing and durable products that encourage gatherings and create memorable experiences around the fire. Terrace, garden, patio, rooftop, hotel or restaurant, COEO solutions naturally integrate into all outdoor design projects thanks to an approach where aesthetics always serve the purpose.
An award-winning design brand for its innovation
Since its beginnings, COEO has been committed to designing products that go beyond their simple function to become true design objects capable of enriching the user experience while sustainably enhancing outdoor spaces. This philosophy has led the brand to develop creations recognised for their aesthetic quality, ergonomics, and ability to respond to new uses of outdoor cooking. Each project is based on in-depth reflection aimed at creating equipment that naturally combines elegance, performance, and ease of use in order to offer a sustainable alternative to traditional outdoor equipment.
Outdoor kitchens designed for hosting and sharing
The outdoor kitchen is today much more than a space reserved for meal preparation. It constitutes a natural extension of the home where the boundaries between indoors and outdoors disappear to make way for new sharing experiences. COEO outdoor kitchens are designed to allow cooking, preparing, serving, and hosting without ever distancing oneself from guests, thus creating a natural continuity between gastronomy and conviviality.
Transforming every outdoor space into a true living area
Whether it is a contemporary terrace, a landscaped garden, an urban rooftop, or an ambitious architectural project, COEO outdoor kitchens allow for the structuring of spaces around culinary preparation and the pleasure of being together. Thanks to their careful design and premium materials, they become the heart of outdoor arrangements and naturally encourage exchanges among guests.
Creating spaces where cooking brings people together
The kitchen has a universal power: that of bringing people together around a shared experience. It is precisely this ability to gather that COEO seeks to amplify through each of its products by imagining equipment designed to facilitate interactions and extend moments of sharing.
The fire pit as a symbol of conviviality
The fire pit occupies a special place in the COEO universe as it perfectly embodies the human dimension carried by the brand. More than just a simple cooking or outdoor heating device, it becomes a central point around which people naturally gather. Fire has a universal attraction that fosters conversations, brings generations closer, and transforms every meal into a collective experience.
A design object at the heart of the garden
Made from Corten steel or powder-coated steel, COEO fire pits are designed to combine cooking performance, resistance to outdoor conditions, and architectural elegance. Their visual presence adds character to all outdoor arrangements while their functionality allows for the exploration of numerous wood fire cooking techniques.
A new way to cook outdoors
Around a fire pit, meal preparation becomes a living spectacle where everyone participates, exchanges, and discovers new flavours. This proximity to the fire and this participatory dimension enhance the culinary experience and create lasting memories.
Design in the service of function
At COEO, design is never considered a mere exercise in style. Every line is born from a real need, every curve responds to a precise gesture, and every design detail aims to enhance the cooking or receiving experience. This approach, summarised by the philosophy "Form & Function", guides all of the brand's developments and allows for the creation of tools that facilitate use while maintaining a strong visual identity. When aesthetics meet performance and the beauty of an object naturally enhances its use, outdoor cooking becomes a true mastered art.
Award-winning products
Our tools are recognised and awarded by the most prestigious design awards.
QUATRO: the boldness of a new generation kamado
The QUATRO has been designed for all cooking enthusiasts who wish to step off the beaten path, experiment with new techniques, and push the boundaries of outdoor cooking. Thanks to its exceptional thermal performance and incredible versatility, it allows for both high-temperature grilling and long smoking, low-temperature cooking, artisanal bread, or even pizzas worthy of the best ovens.
A design awarded worldwide
The QUATRO stands out with a strong visual identity that breaks with traditional kamado codes. Its sleek, modern, and elegant design has earned it some of the most prestigious awards in the design world, including the IF Design Award, the German Design Award, and the Red Dot Design Award. These distinctions recognise COEO's ability to create objects where innovation, ergonomics, and aesthetics form a coherent whole.
QUATRO Juicy, the meeting of design and gastronomy
The QUATRO JUICY perfectly represents COEO's vision by illustrating the possible fusion between an extremely high-performance cooking tool, a piece of contemporary design, and a true gastronomic experience. It embodies the idea that a cooking appliance can become a source of creativity capable of inspiring those who love to cook, share, and create.
When street art, gastronomy, and engineering meet
To illustrate its philosophy, COEO has developed a unique piece inspired by street art to symbolise the role of catalyst for exchanges that its creations play. This approach is based on a simple observation: street art, gastronomy, and engineering share deep commonalities that far exceed their respective fields.
A shared quest for aesthetics and meaning
Street art intervenes in public space to question, engage, and enrich the environment around us. Accessible to all, it creates a direct dialogue with those who discover it and provokes an immediate emotional reaction. Gastronomy follows a similar logic as it also seeks to create a collective emotion through taste, sharing, and the experience of a meal. Engineering naturally complements this approach by enabling the design of aesthetic, high-performance, and sustainable tools capable of making these experiences possible.
Objects designed as catalysts for exchanges
Just as a piece of street art attracts the eye and sparks discussion, COEO products are designed to create meeting points. A fire pit brings people together, an outdoor kitchen welcomes, a kamado stimulates creativity and becomes a platform for exchanges among cooking enthusiasts. In each case, the object transcends its primary function to become the trigger for a human experience.
The COEO art of living
The COEO universe draws its inspiration from the south of France, from the landscapes of Pic Saint-Loup and from a culture deeply attached to gastronomy, sharing, and conviviality. This identity is found in outdoor kitchens, fire pits, or kamados as well as in the collection of clothing and lifestyle accessories developed by the brand.
A community united by the passion for fire
Through its t-shirts, caps, and creations inspired by barbecues, kamados, and outdoor cooking, COEO celebrates a community of enthusiasts who share the same values of authenticity, creativity, and conviviality. These products extend the spirit of the brand by allowing an attachment to a way of life where design, gastronomy, and the pleasure of being together occupy an essential place.
Gastronomie étoilée & Street art
At COEO, every line, every curve has a meaning: that of enhancing the use. We design fire pits where the design is not limited to aesthetics: it optimises every movement, every cooking.
Designed for discerning enthusiasts and professionals, our products combine timeless beauty and technical performance, making outdoor cooking a fluid and precise art.
Juicy - the fusion of worlds
