Galley Kitchen Design, Made to Measure in London
Two parallel runs of cabinetry facing each other across a central walkway. Particularly successful in period kitchens (long narrow Victorian/Edwardian rooms), side-return extensions, and professional-grade home kitchens where the work triangle benefits from compact circulation.
Six elements, one composition.
Every The Galley kitchen commission is built from six coordinated elements — cabinetry, worktop, appliance integration, the layout-specific specialism, lighting, and door/finish library.
Specified individually or as one complete commission. The Galley kitchens start from £32,000 — priced on survey.
The composition, in detail.
Each element below can be specified, customised and commissioned as part of the complete The Galley kitchen — or as a standalone upgrade to an existing kitchen.

The Master Suite Commission
A whole-loft master commission. Hanging walls under the highest pitch, dressing bench beneath the dormer window, eaves drawers to the knee walls, integrated lighting throughout. Typically a 4-5m ridge-to-floor commission.
The Compact Loft
Designed for sub-3m ridge heights — Victorian terrace conversions, mews-house lofts, narrow Edwardian roofs. Single wall of stepped-down wardrobes, double hanging where ceiling permits, drawer banks where it doesn't.
The Dormer-Flanked
Wardrobes built either side of a dormer window with an integrated window seat between, doors stepped down to match the surrounding pitch. The dormer becomes the focal point of the room rather than a break in the joinery rhythm.
The Eaves Drawer Bank
A dedicated commission for the knee-wall zone. Deep pull-out drawers along the lowest part of the slope — typically 600-900mm tall — where ceiling height is too low for hanging. Often combined with a separate hanging wall under the high pitch.
The Statement Loft Walk-In
A walk-in dressing room carved out of the loft. Central island or dressing bench, wardrobes on both pitched walls, integrated lighting throughout. The most-photographed loft commission we build — usually paired with a Velux skylight overhead.
The Office & Wardrobe Combo
A hybrid loft commission for clients using the loft as both bedroom and workspace. Wardrobes on one pitched wall, integrated desk and shelving on the other, separated by a low knee-wall console that doubles as a room divider.
