The laundry room is often neglected, yet it can become a functional and aesthetic space that greatly facilitates household tasks. Here are tips on how to arrange your laundry room to make it a functional and equally pretty space. A small photo gallery awaits you to find inspiration for the style of your future layout.
Custom furniture is the best solution if you have the budget
The essential duo: washing machine and dryer
For an efficient laundry room, installing a washing machine and dryer is essential. This allows you to quickly go from washing to drying without having to carry laundry throughout the house. And if space is limited, opt for vertical installation or choose built-in models to hide them behind a cupboard or sliding door.
According to studies, it’s better to have the dryer separate from the washing machine
How to organize the workspace in a laundry room?
If you’re lucky to have a large laundry room, consider setting it up as a real room dedicated to laundry, rather than just a corner. Here are some key elements:
- Sink : useful for pre-treating stained clothing.
- Work plan: perfect for folding and ironing your laundry. Sorting bins to separate colors and materials before washing.
The sink is becoming more and more popular in laundry rooms
Maximize storage
The laundry room can also serve as additional storage space to declutter your wardrobes. Install cupboards, drawers and shelves to optimize every meter. And to avoid back pain, place your furniture up high. Custom-made furniture with integrated niches allows the machines to be raised, avoiding you having to bend over each time you use them.
There is even furniture with a mini ironing board
Decorating ideas for a laundry room
In addition to its practical use, your laundry room can also be a pleasant space.
- Marine style: opt for light tones, like blue and white, which evoke water. Woven baskets are practical accessories and a good decorating idea for a natural touch.
- Cottage style: white tiles, wooden elements and a barn-style door will give a warm and rustic atmosphere.
- Modern style: smooth surfaces, clean lines and functional minimalism are perfect for a contemporary laundry room.
The practical goal of setting up your laundry room is clear: to have a separate room to take care of the hygiene of your clothes. Discover our beautiful proposals in a photo gallery and pick up ideas that you like.
