Often overlooked and unglamorous, the utility room is a space where numerous essential tasks are completed, from doing the laundry to cleaning shoes and storing many random household items. For this redesign, the original utility was gutted and then refitted with a new easy to clean statement scintilla black star tiled floor and slate-grey heritage shaker style cabinetry. Traditional and modern aesthetics are combined with the large white double Belfast sink and marble work surface. Window light is maximised in this North facing room with elegant barely-there voile curtains that also soften the room’s look.
