This polished, modern laundry room looks much larger than it is by the use of bright white walls and illuminating lights mounted under the cabinets. A small, white, hexagonal backsplash above the apron front sink adds just the right touch of texture to the otherwise sleek and minimalist space.

If you have the choice and the space, installing your washer and dryer vertically in your closet can be game-changing. You don’t need to luge a heavy hamper through the house back and forth, and you can go straight from the dryer onto a hanger. The white closet here is perfect to create the illusion of space while adding a modern, contrasting design with black elements.
11 of Taming the Laundry Beast

When you have a large family, it is challenging to stay on top of laundry; you either sign your weekend away to the task or do at least a load a day. Having two sets of machines can make this task a lot quicker. If you can do two loads at a time, you’ll cut the overall time of the task in half! With four navy blue machines, white cupboards for storage, a counter for folding, and a large bright window, this is the ideal laundry room for a large, busy family. The fun geometric black and white floor tiles add a bold visual to an otherwise neutral space.

I love how this image shows how functional overhead cabinets are; they are the perfect spot for storing detergents, stain removers, fabric softeners, and other laundry goods that you want to be tucked out of sight.

19 of Extra Storage in Metal Rack

If you need more storage space in your laundry room, try incorporating a wire rack between your washer and dryer. This room has ample space between the machines for a large stand like this; however, you can find much thinner ones that slide between the machine and a wall. A wooden counter laid across the top of the appliances matches the wood cabinet above, maximizing the potential for storage and organization.
20 of Cottage Style With Wicker Baskets

Baskets can be a functional and stylish way to add sneaky extra storage to any room; they can rest in the corner of a countertop or stacked on the floor as a decorative accent.

This laundry room is so dreamy; I could actually see myself enjoying that laborious task of laundry if my laundry room looked this precious with blue floral-patterned wallpaper and pale Robin’s egg blue upper cabinets. The room not only looks lovely, but it comes packed with storage space, from the cabinets both above and below the counters to the extra pull-out draws, to the open shelves next to the window, and the full stand linen closet to the left of the space. The hardwood floors below add the right accent of dark wood to prevent the design from appearing washed out.

The red brick floors infuse the entire space with warmth.
24 of Wooden Folding Station

This is an excellent example of using shelving for storage when you don’t have cabinets. This laundry room has one built-in shelf, holding woven baskets and cleaning goods, and one mounted shelf on the wall above the washer and dryer. This shelf also doubles as a hanging rod for clothing. The most used items, such as detergent and fabric softener, are kept in arm’s reach right on the counter in a beautiful woven basket.
25 of Dreamy Laundry Bliss

Two white cabinets are mounted on the wall above the laundry machines in this space, which is just enough space for all your essentials.
