Stunning Narrow Kitchen Design Ideas

If your kitchen is on the narrow side, there’s a lot to be happy about. With a few clever tricks, there are actually several small kitchen ideas that will help transform the awkward kitchen layout into something stylish and sophisticated. So don’t give up yet.

What is the best layout for a narrow kitchen?

If you are dealing with a narrow kitchen, a double kitchen layout is the best way to make the most of your space. This allows you to use both sides efficiently, but it doesn’t feel too boxy like a U-shaped floor plan would in a room this size. A mix of kitchen cabinets and open kitchen shelving ensures it feels light and airy. Modern galley kitchens can be part of a much larger room and feature a wall-adjacent galley with a parallel long island separating a living or dining area behind it.

You can also try rocking U-shaped kitchens by adding a few cabinets between the galley sections for extra storage space.

How do you make a narrow kitchen appear wider?

Even the narrowest galley kitchen can feel roomy and roomy with the right wallpaper or backsplash. The trick is to use a light and lively approach to draw the eye as much into your kitchen as possible, in a way that feels both natural and subtle. And the busier your pattern is, the more it will draw attention and create the optical illusion you want.

Select the most attractive elements in the room and then paint them in contrasting shades to make them stand out. This also shifts the focus from less attractive elements.

Create a feeling of spaciousness by opting for sleek, handle-free units, light shades and glossy, light-reflecting surfaces, while keeping clutter to a minimum. Technological advances in push open and close doors have made it possible to do without handles on both upper and lower cabinets.
