Designer Jessica Bremner maximizes efficiency in this Windsor mud room with hidden laundry, smart storage and durable design details.
Utility and elegance combine in this Windsor mud room. The compact space is more than just a place to toss off snow-laden boots and rain-soaked outerwear: with creamy wood floor-to-ceiling cabinetry to tuck away coats, stylish-yet-durable black and white checkerboard floors and a well-placed bench to remove shoes, the North Vancouver mud room seems to guarantee efficiency.
The best-kept secret of the room is the stacked washer and dryer that’s hidden behind a full-height V-groove door. Plus, designer Jessica Bremner has integrated a laundry chute into the home—a polished touch that makes the homeowners’ daily routines that much easier. And if laundry day is a little chaotic? A pocket door slides across to keep the space sight unseen.
