Sometimes, it can feel like laundry rooms are the ugly duckling of spaces in the home. They’re just kind of…there. But, they’re actually so meaningful! (Writer’s Note: Don’t make fun of me for saying laundry rooms are “meaningful.”) Anyway, I digress. They’re important. Aside from the kitchen, a laundry room is the center of our home. It’s where we go to feel accomplished, organized and clean. It’s where we should feel the most functional. So, we have some key must-haves to build a laundry room space that fulfills all of these basic and beautiful needs. Psst…aesthetics are still an option!

Windows and space and sunshine, oh my! Smart design is all about building a space in your home that is fully functional and convenient to live in. Oh, and obviously aesthetically pleasing as well, full of natural light flooding in. How we live indoors should reflect how we enjoy a natural touch of the outdoors. Do you like to snuggle up by the fire? Do you prefer natural wood accents? Big, open windows? Spaces your family can spread out for game night? Along with remodeling a space that works for your lifestyle, smart design is all about the space itself – and perhaps – making it as open as possible.
