Calm Workspace
The well-organized laundry room has a clean, modern look with a soothing taupe and gray color palette. “Laundry rooms can be quite stressful, especially with all the mess and the utilitarian work that is done, so I wanted to keep the palette very, very serene,” says designer Tiffany Brooks.

Plenty of Storage
