Roberts of Raleigh, N.C.-based Kitchen and Bath
Galleries. "Or, they are forgotten altogether, and
we have to get creative on working them into a
kitchen design, master bath or closet."
According to Williams, the ideal mudroom
should be at least 6-ft. by 8-ft. to comfortably
fit a freestanding sink and a little larger to make
room for hooks, cubbies and storages. Mudrooms
that double as laundry rooms should be about 70
square feet. While this might be optimistic at best
for all designs, there are other methods he suggests
to make more space.
"
Choose a sink based on the room size. A
utility sink is more compact than a cabinet
sink and feels more open with legs rather
than a cabinet.
"
R emove clutter. Utilize products like
built-in ironing boards that fold into the
wall or sinks and storage that disappears
behind closed doors.
"
Take advantage of the wall space. Fixtures
and racks always make a compact room
more usable.

of quartz in warm neutral

Jones, recently completed
a project that combined a
laundry room with a home
for the beloved family dog.
Sampson's new resting spot
was built between custom
cabinetry posts and provides
him a comfy bed. He also
has his very own marble
countertop that houses
his food bowls." - Rachel

little mudroom into a quaint
little home with a beautiful
stonewall and a stained
mahogany cubby seat. It
fit the space and the family
perfectly." - Michael Winn,

Lighting and paint are of course other ways to
open up the space. Adding a mirror helps reflect
light around the room, plus it offers a way to check
an outfit before walking out the door. Natural light
is always preferred, as well as light, neutral colors
on the walls.The cabinets though, whether or not
they are recycled, can be a bit more creative.
"Keep the cabinets light and the finishes happy,"
said designer Christie Board of Prescott, Ariz.based Board by Board Inc.,who added that it is also
very important to keep the cabinets in scale with
the room. "This is one room where your cabinets
can be an out-of-the-box color, and it can work!"
THE MOST PERSONALIZED ROOM

One of the keys to keeping a mudroom or laundry
room organized is by personalizing it to the client's
needs. However, over-organizing it is possible, and
listening to the needs of everyone in the family,
including the children, is essential to the design.
"The head laundry-doer, usually mom, thinks
of the room as 'hers,' but it actually gets used by

From IRON-A-WAY, the AE-46
adjustable swivel ironing
board gives the user the
ability to change the board
height. Premium electrical
features include a 60-minute
timer that powers an outlet
and spotlight inside the unit
and a built-in safety switch
that disconnects all power to
the unit when the board is returned to its upright position.

The SAMSUNG
AddWash Front Load Washer
is equipped with a second
access door on the upper part
of the main door. This lets the
user add any item up to the
size of large towel after the
cycle has begun without needing to drain the washer and
open the main washer door.
