Oxfordshire Cottage Bathrooms & Laundry
Laundry/Cloakroom/Utility:
The brief here was to relocate the washer and drier from the Family Shower Room to the downstairs loo and laundry to create a utility space. The shape of these two spaces were massively irregular, following a property boundary. Therefore, bespoke cabinetry had to be built for both rooms in order to accommodate a new layout with adequate storage. The two rooms now function as cloakroom, utility room, laundry and downstairs loo.
A small kitchen sink and tap with cupboard storage underneath were incorporated into the loo to allow for utility function as well as that of a wash-hand basin. Shelving with baskets were used for decorative and clever storage in both spaces and coat hooks were installed to the opposite wall for hanging. A sliding barn door made for neat unrestrictive access between the two rooms.
The blue of the Little Greene paint used on all the cabinetry and walls acts as a gorgeous foil for the oak, basket and other natural elements in the room to shine.
