Corridor Kitchen

Another name for a galley kitchen — a layout with two parallel walls of cabinets and countertops facing each other across a central aisle. The corridor arrangement creates an efficient work zone where the cook can pivot between opposing workstations with minimal steps. Corridor kitchens work best with an aisle width of 42 to 48 inches and are favored in apartments, condos, and compact homes.
