Re: Narrow apartment kitchen

Although it's beautiful, I just wouldn't want to spend much time in that space.

Re: Narrow apartment kitchen

I like it especially since it's in a small apartment.

 

leaves more space for other rooms.

 

I could see DH and I having a kitchen like this.

Re: Narrow apartment kitchen

I had a kitchen like this for 21 years so efficient.

Re: Narrow apartment kitchen

This is a great kitchen for the amount of sq. ft. in this place. I notice a nice dining room where you can eat looking outside. I really like that, too. I like eating away from the "mess" of my kitchen especially if you can eat where there's a view.

Re: Narrow apartment kitchen

We are looking to purchase an apartment in NYC and these kitchens are pretty spacious for a city apartment!  I would love any of them!

Re: Narrow apartment kitchen

I don't mind the size of this kitchen as much as I don't care for the cabinetry, counter, and backsplash choices. Separately they are fine; I just don't like them together.

This is very pretty, and a very well done space. Love the appliances and the color is light and bright, so it doesn't seem stuffy and closed in at all.

 

Love the cabinets as well.....Do not like the counter tops!

Re: Narrow apartment kitchen

For small kitchens, bright and airy is the way to go! Personally have first hand experience with a very dark wood small kitchen total gut job that is now all white cabinets & literally everyone comments how it looks sooo much bigger (that saw the "before"). So that is HUGE for small areas, especially with no windows. Thankfully I have a kitchen window!

My only comment would be that I would love to see a window, to help open the space-but it might not be feasible if this is in an apartment or the wall placement is all inside (kitchen is not against an outer wall). The glass cabinets also help open the space. I'd change the countertop per my personal preferences.

Re: Narrow apartment kitchen

I think it is a very lovely kitchen. If I lived alone it would be perfect.

Re: Narrow apartment kitchen

I have lived in small spaces before and have never had a galley kitchen.  I do not like them because they look so cramped.
