The stylish laundry room's central location just off the garage and tiled foyer makes it simple to drop off messy items to keep the home sparkling clean.

Periwinkle and taupe stripes line the walls, creating striking pattern and texture that complements the room's dark stone-and-metal accents.

Style and function seamlessly combine in this laundry room. Polished granite countertops provide a beautifully durable work surface, and a stainless steel, single-bowl sink is just as functional for hand-washing laundry as it is for freshening up.

To contrast the stainless steel sink, designer Linda Woodrum chose a matte black faucet that features a pull-out spout. The sleek, industrial finish complements the espresso-hued cabinets.
