Parallel Kitchens
Parallel or Galley Kitchen layouts are a relatively newer concept, where two kitchen platforms, along with their cabinets run parallel to each other. Compact and yet convenient, these kitchens are a favourite with small apartment dwellers or those who have a space constraint.
WHAT IS A PARALLEL/GALLEY KITCHEN DESIGN?
A galley kitchen design layout (also known as the corridor kitchen layout) consists of a three to five-foot corridor or walk-way situated between two parallel walls or runs of cabinetry. Named after its predecessor, a compact kitchenette area or “galley”, which you would find on a nautical vessel or ship is commonly designed for a one-person cook due to its small size. Typically the Galley kitchen will have two work stations that face each other: one wall featuring the cooking components and the opposite wall consisting of the prepping/cleaning fixtures.
Have a look at the kitchen layout below. This type of kitchen layout is ideal for smaller-scale kitchens and also been found to be quite preferable for many professional chefs because it provides a tight efficient work triangle and enhances the safety of the chef when cooking meals. However, the caveat that comes with the Galley layout is the stigma that the design seems too small or narrow in size.
