Let’s Make Your Laundry Room Pop

Paint Power

I swear by Benjamin Moore’s “Morning Sky Blue” – it instantly lifts the mood. Think beyond white – sage green or soft coral can work wonders. Pro tip: Semi-gloss finish helps with moisture resistance.

A sophisticated utility space with sage green semi-gloss walls, white trim, and a brushed nickel retractable drying rack above a built-in folding station. Under-cabinet LED lighting highlights a custom sorting system with grey linen-covered hampers. A small vintage crystal chandelier is centered in the room, with soft lighting creating a welcoming atmosphere from a corner angle.

Smart Storage Solutions That Look Good

Woven baskets (I use seagrass ones from Target – affordable and chic!)
Glass dispensers for detergent and softener
Vintage wooden crates for smaller items
Wall-mounted drying racks that fold away

A coastal-themed laundry room with coral walls, white shiplap accent, maple cabinets, brass hardware, stacked washer/dryer, ZZ plant on marble sill, black and white geometric rug, and gold-framed botanical prints.

Lighting That Changes Everything

Ditch those harsh fluorescents! Here’s what works:

Brass sconces on either side of your washer/dryer
Under-cabinet LED strips (game-changer for dark corners)
A small chandelier if you’re feeling fancy (yes, really!)

Industrial-modern laundry room with exposed brick walls and high-gloss concrete floors. Matte black front-loading machines sit beneath a wooden counter. Vintage-style laundry advertisements are displayed in black frames. Steel and wood shelves hold amber glass detergent dispensers.

Supply storage that’s actually accessible

Add Some Life

Hang botanical prints
Add a patterned rug that can handle water splashes

A modern, minimalist laundry room featuring white floor-to-ceiling cabinets with brass accents, an integrated washer/dryer behind sliding doors, a built-in sorting system with labeled canvas bins, terrazzo floors, and a small fiddle leaf fig in a matte black planter.

My Personal Game-Changers

After redoing countless laundry rooms, here’s what makes the biggest impact:

Counter space over your machines
A retractable clothesline
Built-in sorting bins
Good task lighting

Remember: Your laundry room should work as hard as you do. Make it functional first, then layer in the pretty stuff. Trust me, you’ll actually want to do laundry when your space looks this good!
