One of the most functional rooms in the house can often be one of the most dysfunctional: the laundry room. From clothes piled high, stale fabric softeners and leaky detergents galore, our laundry rooms can have some dirty secrets. Here are 7 laundry room ideas to help clean up your laundry act.
Consider Function First
We’ve heard of double ovens, but double laundry? This is a phenomenal solution for a large family of hockey players, or a household with plenty of guests. This Miami Beach home is listed by Jill Hertzberg with Coldwell Banker Residential Real Estate.
Clean Clothes, Clean Lines
A laundry room with a skyline view? Yes, please! But, how about a plethora of storage, clean lines and sleek modern design? This Chicago, IL home is listed by Chezi Rafaeli with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage.
Here’s a Bright Idea: Natural Light
Natural light can make a big difference in a laundry room. We love the square window in the laundry room of this St. Helena, California home.
Storage: More is More
This Laguna Beach, CA home‘s laundry room shows that ample storage and bright natural light can help laundry not feel like a chore.
Consider a Calming Color Palette
Natural wood and a soft sandy color palette make the laundry space in this Redington Beach, FL home a tranquil place…without the sand, of course.
Create a Folding Station
We love the idea of adding a folding station to your laundry room like the one in this Blaine, WA home.
Pack a Big Punch with Little Touches
Adding wall art, or a pretty catch-all basket can bring your laundry room to life, like in this California home.
