White wash
1 MEET + GREET
“I wanted a clean, white and spacious laundry with loads of storage and a large bench for folding laundry. I wanted a space I would love to be in”
Philly Lyus, 37 (interior designer at Philly Lyus Design and DMI Homestagers), Nick Lyus, 38 (real estate agent), Harry, 10, George, 7, and Sofia, 5, plus Vader the pooch. Why have you installed a new laundry? Philly: When we bought our house, we always planned to move the laundry to a different location and turn the space into a large study.
What was your brief for the new space? Clean, white and spacious with loads of storage and a large bench for folding laundry. With three kids and a busy household I wanted a space I would love to be in as I do spend a lot of time doing laundry!
Were any consents required? Yes, we had to get consent as the laundry was part of a larger house renovation.
How long did it take to build? Three months.
Where did you look for design inspiration? Pinterest but, being a designer, I always have ideas in my head, too.
How did you decide on the colour palette, tiles and finishes? I love white, oak and texture so it was an easy palette to pull together.
I went with a large hexagon tile from Artedomus as it matches
