A functional half bath and laundry room are dependent on several factors, including the washer and dryer, wall finishes, floor covering, storage, and organization. The most important aspect of remodeling your laundry room is determining the best room layout for your needs. With large appliances, countertops, cabinets, and sometimes a sink, half baths and laundry rooms are inspired by kitchen layout planning, using popular styles like the L-shaped, U-shaped, galley, and open plan kitchen. The laundry room footprint must work with the available space, but it must also maximize your efforts while reducing your overall workload.
