Utility room with washing machine and cupboards

Furnishing the utility room

Washing machine, tumble dryer and clothes horse - a utility room can quickly become cramped. With the right furniture, optimum planning and practical installation solutions, setting up the work area is child's play. It doesn't matter whether you only have a small laundry room or a large laundry room. If everything is in the right place, the work almost takes care of itself. It is therefore worth creating order by planning the furnishings and decoration individually. Clever ideas and space-saving storage management can also be used to arrange the room with the washing machine and dryer so that there is enough space for laundry, various utensils, worktop and waste disposal, even in a small space. HAILO shows you what you need to consider when planning and which installation solutions will fit into your utility room.

Storage space solutions for utility rooms and laundry rooms

For more order in the home, it makes sense to ensure that a new utility room meets the requirements for tidiness and sufficient storage space right from the outset. There are various challenges that need to be taken into account when planning the utility room or laundry room, particularly when it comes to furnishing and installing the furniture and accommodating the washing machine and dryer, especially in narrow rooms in the house.

Space-saving designs for the laundry room

Short distances and additional storage space can be gained with the practical L-solution, for example. A tip: use the entire surface of the wall and height of the room for storage. An L-shaped utility room allows room-high cabinets or open shelves to be placed along the wall. The advantage of this design is that the utility room is easy to organize and there is plenty of storage space. The L-shaped utility room is the ideal solution for square or slightly wider rectangular laundry rooms, for example. Alternatively, the room can also be arranged in a U-shape. With the U-shape, the L-solution is simply supplemented by an additional side. Whether a U-shape or L-shape is used naturally also depends on the size of the room and the amount of utensils to be stored.

L-shaped utility rooms or laundry rooms require particularly good planning and practical ideas to adapt the furnishings so that everything can be stowed away easily. Individual ideas and solutions are available here: narrower furniture and cabinets as well as several light sources make the utility room appear less cramped. With practical built-in solutions, you can create sufficient storage space in your utility room, space for washing and enough room for the temporary storage of dirty and washed laundry.

Multifunctional utility room: tidy up, plan, decorate

There are smart built-in solutions that help with arranging, storing and sorting, and not just for the kitchen, living room and bathroom. In the utility room, just like in the kitchen, there is a lot that needs to be stored there in addition to the washing machine. Practical built-in modules are often used in new or open-plan kitchens in particular to prevent the room from losing its appearance due to too much chaos. But with HAILO, no space in the utility room remains unused.

More order in the laundry room thanks to built-in technology

Cupboards alone often don't create the storage space or tidiness you want. HAILO offers various built-in solutions for utility rooms, laundry rooms and kitchens with the aim of generating greater customer satisfaction through innovative products that make work and everyday life easier.

The HAILO Laundry Carrier offers an innovative and elegant option. Here, the laundry basket no longer stands in the room, but the dirty laundry disappears conveniently and space-savingly inside the cupboard. The Laundry Carrier consists of two separate laundry storage containers, making it easier to plan each wash cycle. The additional ease of use meets the requirements of a modern laundry room.

Making perfect use of a small space

Another idea for the laundry area around the washing machine are pull-out shelves, which are very popular in laundry rooms. Thanks to large laundry baskets, even freshly ironed laundry can be stored there. And speaking of ironing: Fold-out laundry racks are the best choice for rooms with limited space.

Creating more storage space with clever solutions

Ideally, the utility room can be designed in such a way that brooms, mops, drinks crates, outdoor equipment for the garden and even shoes can be stored in a space-saving and appropriate manner. Because nobody wants to have to store these things in the kitchen. It's neither hygienic, nor is there enough space to store these things so that they are not visible. High-quality modules such as holders and shelves, partial modules such as the Shoe Rack and other tips for perfect storage are available from HAILO Built-In Technology.
