Hi Everyone, I am new to the forum. I already checked out different sections of the forum to get some inspiration but also to got a lot of information on what and how to build my own pizza oven.
I want to have the pizza oven for some cozy summer (and maybe even winter) evenings making pizza together with my wife and 2 daughters, for me enjoying heating the oven up and cooking together with the family. And of course also the occasional party or large group event. I won't be something I will do every night in summer and also for me it's important heating up time won't be too long. Therefore I am more looking to build a smaller size oven.
When I moved to our new house, one of the thing I definately wanted, was a pizza oven in the garden, I preferably to build one myself. Because of circumstances at a certain point I didn't believe I would have the time and energy to build one myself, so I settled on looking for a ready build version. I was actually looking at something like this: Ambiënta Cinza Iso Pro 100 x 100 cm
​
So a 100x100cm outside size pizza oven with an internal size of 85cm x 70cm. For me the right size considering my garden plan. I would then build the plateau/stand myself, and just buy the pizza oven.
Then circumstances changed a little bit, so I thought let's do it myself. And without research thought I would make something like the above link. Now after some research and found out, that the way this oven is constructed is not the best, with the air vent/pipe behind the door entrance. I found out especially after seeing this image on the Forno Bravo website and reading all the info:

Am I right to think the oven in the link above is not the right way to go, or maybe not worth all the time it takes to build a pizza oven to end up with something just not right?
I am continuing my research on this site, and look at all the incredible builds. I am an industrial designer, so the design/look of the oven would be very important to me. I will first "build" it in 3d and also think very well about the outer finish of the oven. I will try to post as much of the progress here in the forum.
Greetings, Patrick
