Small Laundry Storage
The first thing you should think about is storage because a laundry is a functional space. Plan it beforehand: where will you put dirty laundry? What about detergents? If you need a lot of storage space, consider using kitchen cabinets for that, they will look sleek and will declutter the space. If you don’t, you can pair up lower cabinets and open shelves or stick to only shelves and racks. Consider having rails and drying racks that can be folded and hidden when not in need. Use every inch of space including doors, where you can attach shelves, under the ceiling space and so on.
