A galley kitchen mimic’s the long and narrow layout found on ships, which is where its name originates.
Typically found in extensions to the rear of terraced properties, a galley kitchen consists of a bank of two parallel units with a walkway, or corridor, running down the middle.
Ergonomically favourable a galley kitchen requires simplicity, organisation, and careful planning during the kitchen design stage, to really maximise the available space.
With a bank of two parallel kitchen worktop units that face each other, a galley kitchen design typically splits the two stations with one featuring all the kitchen appliances and the opposite surface left clear, for food preparation and serving.
If you’re faced with limited space don’t think you have to be restricted on style.
Providing a handful of galley kitchen ideas, with clever space enhancing tips a small galley kitchen can be transformed into an inspiring kitchen layout.
Kitchen Flooring
When installing kitchen flooring make sure it runs lengthways and parallel to the units to give the illusion that the kitchen is longer.
Kitchen Design
Any kitchen design lends itself to a galley kitchen, but a clean streamlined linear kitchen finish helps simplify the space, making it feel bigger than it is.
Colour Schemes
Keep the colour scheme light and bright in your galley kitchen to make the space feel open and airy.

Top class service from start to finish, I didn't really know where to start but Simon the designer came up with a great design to maximise the space.
The whole process was easy and efficient, Mick the main fitter was superb, nothing was too much trouble.
Delighted with the final result, highly recommended.
Mr Murphy, Thurstonland, Huddersfield, West Yorkshire
From start to finish the work was carried out efficiently and as each job was finished, the next person came to do their part of the job. Everyone who worked on the project was excellent.
We have been very satisfied with all aspects of the whole project & you all delivered as promised!

Mr & Mrs Middleton, Mirfield, West Yorkshire
We do not usually participate in surveys but are happy to make an exception in respect of our newly installed kitchen to recognise the outstanding work of the More Kitchens team.
From design by Julie through the stripping out and faultless construction by Mick (a craftsman of the old school) aided by the skills of the specialist tradesmen, plasterer, electricians, plumber, and painter, not forgetting the helpful input of Project Manager Rob. Nice people to deal with - thanks to all.
Not the cheapest but probably the best!
