The leading home furnishing and lifestyle brand partnered with the [celebrated American chef](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/williams-sonoma-iron-chef-masaharu-morimoto) to carefully design the new Frontgate Outdoor Kitchen Collection set to launch this spring. The range includes three distinct sets with over 15 modular pieces. Frontgate aimed to add style, flexibility, and functionality to its customer's alfresco spaces. To promote the launch, Chef Symon will showcase how to set up the outdoor kitchens while sharing expert culinary tips. In addition, the partners are committing to humanitarian efforts in tandem with their new launch. Frontgate pledged to donate $25,000 to the [Michael D. Symon Foundation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/michael-graves-design), w which serves food banks and the Salvation Army in Cleveland.
