A handcrafted circular wooden wall mirror placed on each side of the mudroom bench for a quick look before heading out the door, and a large professionally framed photographic print of a burly beast are two of the well-chosen design details in this space. "This mudroom is a lot more sophisticated than most mudrooms," says designer Brian Patrick Flynn.
