Laundry rooms today are bright and organized cleanup command centers. Whether they are located in a tidy corner of the basement or a nook next to the kitchen, these areas have come a long way from the laundry rooms of past. From energy-wise washer and drying machines to thrifty flooring options, updating your laundry room area offers endless solutions.
Just because you have limited space in your laundry room area, does not mean you can not have some smart storage solutions. With a little creativity and organizing, you can create a space with a new aesthetic.

The best way to begin the process of setting up a home office is to browse for inspiration. When browsing, keep in mind that offices in design magazines may not be set up to accommodate your current situation. Try to balance items that seem appealing versus actual use. Upholstered dining room chairs may look quality, but they won’t support your back as well as they should. And older, retro desks usually do not accommodate your project files.
The top of your computer screen should be at eye level and the location of your desk should be close to the windows, parallel to the window panes.
