Turn your laundry into a gorgeous and efficient work zone
Doing the laundry can be a pleasure rather than a chore. Really! Imagine if you had a place to wash and iron that was light and bright. A streamlined work space with lots of storage and bags of style. Well you can – and it won’t cost the earth. Take your cue from this room and keep the plumbing and flooring but upgrade everything else – windows, walls, doors, cabinetry and appliances – and add a few DIY bespoke features. The focus is on clean lines and calm colours, with decorative touches for a laundry as practical as it is lovely. So inspiring!
you’ve got style! Forget the old idea of a ‘utility room’ – the laundry is part of your home and should look like it! Give it a deco style and colour scheme – such as contemporary and neutral – then let your inner stylist loose!
le sleek, c’est chic
The secret to a streamlined laundry? Bench space! Take your washer and dryer down low, ditch any tall or wall cabinets and use tricks to boost light levels – here a new glass-paned external door and arched mirror.
window dressing
If your laundry has an ugly outlook, turn the window into the view! Build a timber frame with shelf to fit in the reveal – it makes a fab spot for indoor plants or even a herb garden! PS, check out the round ceramic sink. So much sleeker than an old-school metal tub.
