Getting “into” a Galley Kitchen

There’s a lot to love about galley kitchens, also known as corridor kitchens. And while the name might drive some to think of ancient ships sailing the broad seas, this kitchen is definitely more than meets the eye. So whether you’ve got a galley kitchen, or you’re thinking of a kitchen remodel, here’s a few reasons to love it.

It’s an easy upgrade from the one-walled kitchen

One-walled kitchens can cause malaise, what with the lack of kitchen cabinet space, everything being lined up in a row, etc. But turning your one-wall into a galley kitchen is easy. Just add cabinets on the opposite side. Easier still is adding those cabinets and making them look like your existing set. With a quick kitchen cabinet refacing project, all of your cabinets can look like they were installed at the same time.
