Laundry room - transitional laundry room idea in Nashville

This house was a 50 year old outdated Cape Cod. With some easy, budget friendly rennovations the house went from outdated to right on trend. Enjoy, and feel free to contact me with any questions or requests. Thank you. Rebecca Segar

MA Peterson www.mapeterson.com This mudroom was part of an updated entry way and we re-designed it to accommodate their busy lifestyle, balanced by a sense of clean design and common order. Newly painted custom cabinetry adorns the walls, with overhead space for off-season storage, cubbies for individual items, and bench seating for comfortable and convenient quick changes. We paid extra attention to detail and added tiered space for storing shoes with custom shelves under the benches. Floor to ceiling closets add multipurpose storage for outerwear, bulkier boots and sports gear. There wall opposite of the cabinets offers up a long row of wall hooks, so no matter what the kids say, there's no reason for a single coat or scarf to be left on the floor, again. Nothing other than stone flooring would do for this transitional room, because it stands up to heavy traffic and sweeps up in just minutes. Overhead lighting simplifies the search for gear and highlights easy access to the laundry room at the end of the hall. Photo Credit: Todd Mulvihill Photography

As a cottage, the Ridgecrest was designed to take full advantage of a property rich in natural beauty. Each of the main houses three bedrooms, and all of the entertaining spaces, have large rear facing windows with thick craftsman style casing. A glance at the front motor court reveals a guesthouse above a three-stall garage. Complete with separate entrance, the guesthouse features its own bathroom, kitchen, laundry, living room and bedroom. The columned entry porch of the main house is centered on the floor plan, but is tucked under the left side of the homes large transverse gable. Centered under this gable is a grand staircase connecting the foyer to the lower level corridor. Directly to the rear of the foyer is the living room. With tall windows and a vaulted ceiling. The living rooms stone fireplace has flanking cabinets that anchor an axis that runs through the living and dinning room, ending at the side patio. A large island anchors the open concept kitchen and dining space. On the opposite side of the main level is a private master suite, complete with spacious dressing room and double vanity master bathroom. Buffering the living room from the master bedroom, with a large built-in feature wall, is a private study. Downstairs, rooms are organized off of a linear corridor with one end being terminated by a shared bathroom for the two lower bedrooms and large entertainment spaces.

Entryway - contemporary entryway idea in Cleveland

Mudrooms are practical entryway spaces that serve as a buffer between the outdoors and the main living areas of a home. Typically located near the front or back door, mudrooms are designed to keep the mess of the outside world at bay. These spaces often feature built-in storage for coats, shoes, and accessories, helping to maintain a tidy and organized home. Durable flooring materials, such as tile or easy-to-clean surfaces, are common in mudrooms to withstand dirt and moisture. Additionally, mudrooms may include benches or cubbies for convenient seating and storage of bags or backpacks. With hooks for hanging outerwear and perhaps a small sink for quick cleanups, mudrooms efficiently balance functionality with the demands of an active household, providing an essential transitional space in the home.
