4. Squeeze in a drying rail
The addition of a clothes drying rail above the sink in this laundry room by SWITCH INTERIOR DESIGN is a smart and practical way to fully utilise the space.
As long as there’s adequate ventilation, drying rails are a good option in a utility or laundry area where floor space is limited and there isn’t room for a traditional clothes airer.

3. Choose farmhouse styling
This generous laundry area feels calm and organised thanks to the simple, timeless farmhouse styling, as well as the soft sage and cream colour palette that flows through the rest of the home, designed by Blackburn Architects.
Tongue-and-groove wall panelling, wicker storage baskets and a simple brass drying rail are key elements of this look. The addition of warm textiles, such as the vintage rug and Roman window blind, help to soften the space.

2. Bring in light and sunshine
This laundry room by Maddalena Minerva isn’t big, but it still feels light and airy thanks to a couple of clever design tricks. A glazed patio door maximises the amount of daylight coming into the room, while a sunny yellow colour palette enhances the feeling of light and warmth.
Terracotta floor tiles and a wooden worktop bring in even more warmth, making this a bright and pleasant room in which to spend time.

1. Choose hardworking storage
Laundry rooms are often small spaces, but they usually have to house a lot of items, from large appliances and laundry baskets, to bottles of laundry detergent and all the assorted bits and pieces that end up drifting there, so smart storage is essential.
This laundry room by First Sense Interiors packs a lot into a small space thanks to a bespoke cupboard that allows two appliances to be vertically stacked, with a pull-out clothes airer above. This, combined with a second, ceiling-mounted airer and plenty of under-sink storage, alongside baskets and a wall shelf, ensures every inch of space in this room is put to work.

This neat laundry and utility room by Herringbone Kitchens is tucked away in the corner of a larger open-plan kitchen space where the units are painted a deep burgundy.
Colour drenching the units and walls of the laundry area in a deep olive shade helps to zone this space, giving it a unique identity separate from the main kitchen.
