Laundry & Mudroom Elevations...please help and review layout
Comments (2)I have a laundry room layout similar to yours, but my hanging space and cabinets are reversed. I wasn't sure the hanging space over the sink would be a good idea as if something slipped off a hanger and the sink was soaking something, I'd end up with my clean item all wet in a sink of soap and/or stain remover. Can you tell me why you decided to have your hanging space over the sink? Curious, in case I missed something! LOL This is a pic from our cabinet guy of how the laundry room will be:...See MoreHelp me design my laundry / mudroom
Comments (12)You'd probably want to leave an inch on either side of the pair and an inch between them just to be on the safe side. The standard model they give me on the layout program is 30" wide, so with those dimensions side by side is a no go. With your dimensions and adding the 3" of wiggle room, that would put you right up against the 24" deep countertop running under the windows. So it could be done, but you are pretty much locked in to that size washer and dryer from then on. I like the idea of putting the rack in the pantry style closet--that's what my mom does with hers. Another thought is to do pullout hampers. We are doing 3 sets of them. They are actually tall trash pullouts, but they will allow the kids to go ahead and sort their clothes when they bring them in to the laundry room & I can just load them in the washer. I like the idea of the shelves for the clean clothes baskets too. We did the corner sink and it looks great. We used a single basin stainless undermount large D-shaped sink. You would not believe the space in there and I don't have to worry about it staining or yellowing or cracking like alot of the "laundry sinks" out there. I've attached an 'under construction" pic for you of our countertop & sink. I don't have time right now, but I'll work on some elevations for you with some additional ideas....See MoreQuick help please! Mudroom / Laundry lighting placement
Comments (1)Update: another option is to move the 2 lower cans in mudroom up a bit so they are symmetrical around flush mount with the other 2 cans ......See MoreCan You Improve My Mudroom/Laundry/Pantry Plans?
Comments (3)Ask and you shall receive.... The Kitchen and stairs are located as follows: For reference, the garage would go to the left of this, past the back of the house, and pick up that door to the "north" of the stairs (not shown, but labeled, top left) The stairs and kitchen are an exterior wall. No windows until you get to the kitchen sink. 3D Overview: That wall running through the refrigerator is the existing pantry area and would be beamed at about 9'. to match heights with the back room. The opening in the kitchen wall is new also--currently just two 30" doors on either end. It has a post in the middle due to a steam line that can't move. Plumbing in the back area does not need to stay. All can move. Current 6x9 bathroom is where the proposed laundry is, if that makes sense. Current wall location does not matter--it's already stripped and ready to pull. I just didn't feel 6' wide was enough for a laundry. The mudroom is basically the space that was left over after trying to accommodate both rear doors, and fit in the walk in pantry, laundry, and a half bath. All of those elements need to be in here in some respect. For scale, the entire house is almost 5000 square feet above grade. This 15.5x21.5 back room is just open, disorganized space (apart from the tiny 6x6 laundry)....See MoreMark Bischak, Architect
