In this video, we show you some of the best design ideas and tips for creating a functional and stylish galley kitchen in your home.
A galley kitchen is a long and narrow kitchen configuration with a central walkway that has cabinetry, countertops, and appliances built along one or both walls. This layout is often found in older city apartments and historic homes, but it can also be adapted for larger spaces with an added kitchen island.
A galley kitchen is ideal for small kitchens that need to accommodate ample work space for a serious chef, as it helps streamline workflows by making it easy to navigate back and forth between work areas.
Some of the design considerations for a galley kitchen include:
- Choosing between a symmetrical or asymmetrical layout. A symmetrical layout features two facing countertops that mirror each other, creating a balanced and consistent look. An asymmetrical layout allows for more versatility and customization, especially in smaller spaces.
- Balancing aisle space, light, and storage. A galley kitchen should have enough aisle space to allow for comfortable movement and avoid a cramped feeling. It should also have plenty of natural and artificial light to brighten up the space and make it feel more spacious. Storage can be maximized by using wall cabinets, open shelving, or floor-to-ceiling cabinetry.
- Adding cafe-style seating or a breakfast bar. If you have a window at the end of your galley kitchen, you can create a cosy spot for meals, reading, or meal prep by adding a small table and chairs or a bar-style counter. This will also provide some extra counter space and storage.
- Following the architecture of your space. If your galley kitchen has an irregular shape or curve, you can use custom built-in cabinetry that hugs the space's contours and creates a natural home for your sink and dishwasher. You can also use the architecture of your space to create focal points or accents, such as a bay window or a glass door leading to the outside.
