Home to a large family, the brief for this laundry in Brighton was to incorporate as much storage space as possible. Our in-house Interior Designer, Jeyda has created a galley style laundry with ample storage without having to compromise on style.

Design Actually, LLC

Ample storage and function were an important feature for the homeowner. Beth worked in unison with the contractor to design a custom hanging, pull-out system. The functional shelf glides out when needed, and stores neatly away when not in use. The contractor also installed a hanging rod above the washer and dryer. You can never have too much hanging space! Beth purchased mesh laundry baskets on wheels to alleviate the musty smell of dirty laundry, and a broom closet for cleaning items. There is even a cozy little nook for the family dog.

Nestled within the confines of a space boasting lofty 10-foot ceilings, this bespoke arrangement effortlessly blends form and function to elevate your laundering experience to new heights. At the heart of the room lies a stacked washer and dryer unit, seamlessly integrated into the cabinetry. Standing tall against the expansive backdrop, the cabinetry surrounding the appliances is crafted with meticulous attention to detail. Each cabinet is adorned with opulent gold knobs, adding a touch of refined luxury to the utilitarian space. The rich, dark green hue of the cabinetry envelops the room in an aura of understated opulence, lending a sense of warmth and depth to the environment. Above the washer and dryer, a series of cabinets provide ample storage for all your laundry essentials. With sleek, minimalist design lines and the same lustrous gold hardware, these cabinets offer both practicality and visual appeal. A sink cabinet stands adjacent, offering a convenient spot for tackling stubborn stains and delicate hand-washables. Its smooth surface and seamless integration into the cabinetry ensure a cohesive aesthetic throughout the room. Complementing the structured elegance of the cabinetry are floating shelves crafted from exquisite white oak. These shelves offer a perfect balance of functionality and style, providing a display space for decorative accents or practical storage for frequently used items. Their airy design adds a sense of openness to the room, harmonizing effortlessly with the lofty proportions of the space. In this meticulously curated laundry room, every element has been thoughtfully selected to create a sanctuary of efficiency and beauty.

Bedroom Suite

Tate Enterprises

In this garage addition we created a 5th bedroom, bathroom, laundry room and kids sitting room, for a young family. The architecture of the spaces offers great ceiling angles but were a challenge in creating usable space especially in the bathroom and laundry room. In the end were able to achieve all their needs. This young family wanted a clean transitional look that will last for years and match the existing home. In the laundry room we added a porcelain tile floor that looks like cement tile for ease of care. The brass fixtures add a touch of sophistication for all the laundry the kids create. The bathroom we kept simple but stylish. Beveled white subway tile in the shower with white cabinets, a porcelain tile with a marble like vein, for the flooring, and a simple quartz countertop work perfectly with the chrome plumbing fixtures. Perfect for a kid’s bath. In the sitting room we added a desk for a homework space and built-in bookshelves for toy storage. The bedroom, currently a nursery, has great natural light and fantastic roof lines. We created two closets in the eves and organizers inside to help maximize storage of the unusual space. Our clients love their newly created space over their garage.

White Galley Laundry Room Design Ideas

Laundry designs seldom receive the attention they deserve, especially considering how often they’re used. A well-planned laundry, complete with built-in cabinets, a laundry sink, washing machine and clothes dryer, can serve many needs. It can help simplify your household chores; store drying clothes and cleaning products; and can even provide a spot for you to groom pets. Because of its hardworking, multipurpose potential, a laundry renovation is a worthwhile investment. Smart laundry designs have layouts that save you time and effort. For example, a washing machine and clothes dryer should be positioned next to one another or stacked, and laundry baskets and hampers should be within easy reach; while an ironing board should be stowed by a power point. Ample storage, bench space for laundry baskets and practical lighting are also essential.

How do I add storage to my laundry?

A combination of storage solutions is key to running an efficient laundry. Include shelves above or beside the washing machine to store washing detergent, softener and other cleaning products; and laundry bins for dirty clothes. Consider a custom-built cupboard for an ironing board, so it can easily fold out when you need it, or mount the ironing board directly to the wall or on the back of a door. A retractable clothesline is a handy addition to dry delicate clothes, while a clothes hanger mounted to the wall is ideal for hanging freshly pressed shirts.

What else can I use my laundry for?

Multipurpose laundry rooms or utility rooms can help save valuable space in your home. The laundry sink can be used to bathe your furry friends; your laundry cupboard can store sports equipment, gardening tools and umbrellas; and a spare nook can be filled with a desk and chair to create an office space while you wait for your load to finish. If your laundry is at the front of the house, consider using it as a drop station for mail, mobile phones and keys. Include a bench seat or stool, wall-mounted hooks for bags and a coat stand and it can even be used as a place to get the kids organised before you walk out the front door.

How can I decorate my laundry?

Laundries are usually filled to the brim with appliances and storage, so take advantage of your walls when decorating and use cheery paint colours or wallpaper to make doing the chores more pleasant! Fun signs, posters, murals and wall decals will also add character to the space. Think of your storage as decor, too – look for bins and baskets with decorative touches, and use brightly-coloured or patterned hangers.
