1. Pretty and Practical
Practicality was the goal in this compact laundry room in St. Charles, Illinois, but interior designer Tami O’Malley was able to fill it with charm too. The hardworking space serves not only as a laundry room, but also as a side entrance, a mudroom for storing kids’ school and sports gear and a sleeping spot for two dogs. A botanical wallpaper, custom-cut checkerboard floor, white oak accents and a white-glass-and-brass light fixture elevate the style. A clever panel on the side of the appliance cabinet conceals access to the mechanicals.
