Also known as a galley kitchen, the parallel layout is one of the most efficient designs for narrow spaces.
Ideal for Narrow Spaces
Two facing counters make excellent use of long, narrow kitchens where an L-shaped or U-shaped layout wouldn't fit comfortably.
Short Work Triangle
With the sink, stove, and storage split across two close walls, everything stays within easy reach while cooking.
Keep a Clear Walkway
A comfortable parallel kitchen needs at least 4 ft between the two counters so two people can move and work without bumping into each other.
Smart Storage on Both Sides
Since you get two full walls of cabinetry, parallel kitchens often offer more storage than an L-shaped kitchen of the same footprint.
