Laundries

A laundry that works as hard as you do.

We treat the laundry like any other room in the house: considered joinery, durable stone and every machine tucked neatly out of sight. Most laundries are completed in about two weeks.

The look

A warm oak laundry.

Full-height oak joinery, a stone benchtop over the machines, a built-in bench seat and a terrazzo floor, with a joinery door that opens through to the rest of the home. Below, we walk through how a laundry like this comes together.

The design process

How we design a laundry.

01

Plan it like a room

We start with how you actually use the space: where the baskets land, where coats and shoes go, where things hang to dry. Then we wrap it all in full-height oak joinery so every job has a home.

Natural oak joinery

Warm oak veneer from floor to ceiling, finished with long bar handles.

Built-in bench seat

A spot to sit, fold or drop the shopping, with storage above and below.

02

Hide the machines

Nothing spoils a beautiful laundry faster than machines on show. We nest the washer and dryer under the bench and add a hanging rail beneath the wall cabinets for drip-drying.

Washer & dryer under the bench

A premium front-loading washer and dryer pair, built into the joinery with matching panels around them.

Wall cabinets & hanging rail

Overhead storage with a slim black rail underneath for hanging clothes.

03

Surfaces that work hard

Laundries cop a beating, so every surface has to be both beautiful and tough. A honed stone benchtop handles water and detergent, and terrazzo underfoot hides wear and wipes clean.

Copper gooseneck mixer

A two-piece gooseneck set in warm brushed copper, mounted on the soft-veined stone benchtop.

Terrazzo floor

Speckled terrazzo that’s durable, water-resistant and timeless.

04

Details that make it yours

The finishing touches turn a utility room into part of the home. Here, a full-height oak door swings open to frame a view through to the staircase, and closes to let the laundry disappear.

Joinery door

Clad in the same oak as the cabinetry, so it reads as part of the wall.

The finishing touches

Styled with.

The pieces we love to finish a laundry with: beautiful hardware, natural stone and storage pretty enough to leave out.

Rosa breccia plinth

A solid stone plinth to display a vase in the hallway beyond.

Marble-knob canister

Brushed steel storage for pegs or pods, topped with marble.

Bronze T-bar knob

Warm brushed bronze to pair with the copper mixer.

Hammered glass wall light

Textured glass that softens the light in a hard-working room.

Rosso Levanto door pulls

A pair of solid marble pulls that turn the joinery door into a statement.
