\"KitchenGalley-style kitchens are common in many types of Flagstaff apartments<\/a><\/a> because of the efficient use of space. Modeled after a professional kitchen, the galley features two long countertops around a narrow center aisle. Use these tips to make your galley kitchen as efficient as possible.<\/p>\n

Make the Most of Wall Space<\/h2>\n

The two walls that define a galley kitchen should offer plenty of space for shelving if they're not already covered in cabinets. If the upper cabinets don't run all the way to the ceiling, use the space above them as an extra storage space and display area as well. Hanging racks allow you to organize everything from spices to dishes where you can easily see them.<\/p>\n

Add Pull-Out Racks to Cabinets<\/h2>\n

For existing lower cabinets, expand and organize the storage space inside with pull-out or roll-out racks. You can scan your canned goods, backup dishes, and cooking tools at a glance rather than squatting down to dig through the cabinet's shelves. These racks are easily added to most apartment cabinets with no alterations or permanent installation necessary.<\/p>\n

Minimize Clutter<\/h2>\n

Watch out for too many decorations when dealing with a galley kitchen. Look for food storage containers and dishes with colorful patterns in the colors you prefer to double as decoration when they're stored out on open racks and shelves.<\/p>\n

Limit Special Appliances<\/h2>\n

Regardless of your kitchen's layout, you don't want to clutter the countertops or cabinets with dozens of single-use small appliances. If you have an oven, you may not really need a toaster oven, bread machine, and tortilla warmer. Minimize single-use appliances to leave more space for the essentials.<\/p>\n

Set Up Workstations<\/h2>\n

Finally, organize your kitchen areas by purpose. Spices should be within reach of the prep areas, while dishes should be stored near the sink for faster transfer when they're dry. <\/p>\n
