Laundry Layout (below a bay window)
Comments (8)Just to add a few more thoughts: - I don't envision us spending a huge amount of time actually folding laundry or ironing in this room. - Collecting and sorting is usually done upstairs in the bedrooms. - The floors are epoxy coated concrete which looks great and is very functional for a utility room, but isn't that comfortable to to stand on for a long period of time. - The reality is that most folding/ironing will probably be done in an adjacent room which has a TV. Sketch A: - I like the idea of a tall cabinet to the left of the stacked machines as it will give me a place to put taller things (vacuum, broom, etc) - I will be able to put a standard sized sink immediately to the right of the machines. - The downside is there is not much counter space... but how much do I really need? Sketch B: - A nice long counter to work on. - No tall cabinet as drawn, but I could put one to the left of the machines. - It may prove difficult to find a sink that will fit in that small irregular cabinet to the right of the machines. Sketch C: - A nice long counter to work on. - Easy placement of a sink. - The 'cabinet' to the left of the machines looks odd and I cannot carry the wall angle as it would impede access to my electrical service panel. I am also very restricted on the maximum machine width of 24" so there would be no up-sizing. Leaving it out would also look odd given the depth of the stacking machines and the angle of that little space. Thanks again!...See MoreKitchen renovation layout problems!
Comments (11)A galley kitchen is actually a fairly efficient design. So what do you want this kitchen to do that it can't currently do? And if you expand into the dining area, where will you eat? I see that you appear to have a formal dining room that is not very convenient to the kitchen. And also that your front door appears to open directly into your casual eating area. (Correct me if I'm wrong, please). Are these issues that you are trying to address with a remodel? Or are you just trying to open the kitchen to the family room?...See More1929 master bath renovation: stuck on layout
