But First, Should You Be Spending Time On Laundry Room Design Ideas?

The difference between amateur and professional decoration efforts often lies in the little things. Small, neglected pockets of space can affect your home’s overall ambience more than you may think. If your laundry area is in a visible section of the house, such as one you pass by on your way to the kitchen or balcony, it’s going to need a touch-up along with the rest of the space. Plus, laundry hampers, supplies, and those bulky washers and dryers aren’t the picture of elegance by themselves.

The good news is that a little reorganization, the right wall treatment, and a few well-placed accents are all that you need to turn your boring laundry space stylish. From quirky experiments to rustic decor for your laundry room, here are some fun ideas to get you started.

Go Artsy In Black And White.

As a room that is likely to be low on space and natural light, laundry rooms need every bit of help they can get from white or light-toned wall treatments. Pristine white laundry rooms have a timeless appeal. You can up the style quotient with black-and-white floral wallpaper, abstract artwork, and vintage metal fittings. A black-and-white color palette will let you try everything ranging from contemporary to rustic decor for your laundry room.

Get Creative With Storage.

Square footage can be scarce in modern laundry areas. Make the most of the space by adding shelves and storage units wherever possible. Placing your washer and dryer side by side may allow you to add a shelf on top, something that you can highlight through a contrasting finish.

If all you have for a laundry area is a corner just off the bathroom, you could even consider stacking your appliances and screening the space off with a partition. Add a cheerful peel and stick wallpaper to the partition for a delightful, upbeat look.

Have an oddly shaped laundry room? Flaunt it!

Often, the most awkwardly shaped, leftover space in the house gets relegated for laundry purposes. However, this doesn't put you at a disadvantage. You can leverage the irregular floor plan to set a pleasantly quirky tone. If you're looking for narrow laundry room design ideas, here's one — create a gallery-like feel by drawing attention to the linear layout.

Use textured wallpaper featuring a whitewashed brick or shiplap print as the backdrop for your appliances and storage units. Wrap the rest of the room in a vibrant floral or abstract print for a nice dose of contrast and whimsy.

Transform Your Laundry Room With Rustic Decor

Rustic decor has been trending of late, and for good reason. Raw charisma aside, it’s one of the most convenient looks to maintain. A big advantage of using rustic decor in laundry rooms is that it includes your appliances, shelving and laundry paraphernalia as part of the visual composition. You can introduce drying racks, wood-and-metal shelving, laundry hampers, and nautical peel and stick wallpaper without worrying about ending up with a chaotic setting.
