Laundry Rooms That
Actually Work
The hardest-working room in the house usually gets a wire shelf. We build laundry rooms around the actual work: sort, wash, dry, fold, done.
Every load of laundry moves through the same four stations: sorting in, washing and drying, folding and hanging, and staging out. Most laundry rooms support exactly one of those stations, the machines, and the rest happens on the guest bed. A designed laundry room supports all four in the room itself, and the whole house feels the difference.
We build laundry cabinetry the way we build kitchens: solid hardwood faces, plywood boxes, sprayed conversion varnish that shrugs off humidity. The Mantoloking project included a laundry room in exactly this spirit, cabinetry as considered as the kitchen upstairs.
Laundry pairs naturally with the rooms around it: many of our projects combine it with a mudroom, a pantry, or a dog-wash station, one hard-working service zone behind one door.
“The single most thanked feature we install in laundry rooms is not a cabinet at all. It is a counter over front-loading machines, deep enough to fold on. Every client says the same sentence a month later: why did we live without this.”
