What else can laundry rooms be used for?

If you have a smaller home, using your utility room for multiple purposes is a great space-saving technique.

It also easily transitions into a mudroom, where you can store extra shoes, sports equipment and winter clothing.

Think about what your family needs and incorporate those features into your laundry room design to start getting the most out of your space.

Bright paint or wallpaper can help make chores pleasant, while fun signs, posters, murals and wall decals can enhance laundry room designs of all styles. Think of your storage containers as laundry room decor too; find bins, baskets and hangers with fun patterns and colorful fabrics to bring life to the space.
