A parallel modular kitchen (also called a galley kitchen) places counters on two facing walls. It is one of the most efficient layouts for narrow kitchens found in many Patna apartments.
Wet side and dry side
The smartest way to plan a parallel kitchen is to keep the sink and dishwasher on one side (wet side) and the hob and chimney on the other (dry side). This keeps water away from the cooking zone.
Ideal width
Keep at least 4 feet between the two counters so two people can work comfortably and drawers can open fully.
Storage ideas
- Tall unit at one end for groceries and appliances.
- Tandem drawers instead of shelves for easy access.
- Overhead cabinets with lift-up shutters.
