Don’t get hung up on aestheticsWe all want our homes to look great, but it’s more important to ensure everything functions. Focus on the less glamorous, practical elements first when you’re planning your renovation.Consider those day-to-day necessities, such as coat and shoe storage, laundry areas, and linen cupboards for stashing towels and sheets. They all sound pretty mundane, but without properly planning these spaces, your beautifully designed home will soon look pretty chaotic.Discover how to store household linen (no matter how little space you have)
Tackle your laundryIf you want to keep your washing appliances out of the way, you don’t have to sacrifice a whole room (or extend) to accommodate a utility or laundry area. By simply concealing the washer and dryer in your kitchen, as they’ve done in the image above, you’ll keep them hidden. You can use a similar solution for storing clothes drying paraphernalia, laundry detergents and ironing equipment, too.Discover more ways to disguise drying laundry
Also consider how you make dishes and beverages such as rice and coffee. Do you have a coffee machine but still keep a drip percolator? Do you use a microwave rice cooker, but have an electric one in the cupboard as a back-up? Don’t be afraid to throw out duplicates; you’ll still be able to perform necessary tasks, and you’ll have the added benefit of extra space.Is it over for kitchen islands? You decide…
