What we did to achieve these

In the old laundry, there was a dividing wall that split up the powder room with the rest of the laundry. As licensed builders we were able to remove the dividing wall to open up the space. This allowed us to utilise the wasted space in the powder room as an area for the fridge. We designed and built a new smaller dividing wall and added a second wall that split the powder room and the new fridge recess.

The powder room became a large and functional space with a hand basin. The fridge recess only needed to be 800 deep, leaving room for us to design and build a beautiful open timber shelf unit – every millimetre was utilised to its most potential. We split the overhead cabinets in order to accentuate the 3 metre high ceilings.

There was quite a lot to fit into the laundry given the dimensions. In order to maximise the storage space as well as get the best out of the room we installed a compact laundry sink. This sink was the desired 45L capacity, but was smaller in width, and deeper in height. Making it the perfect solution. Bev and Morgan were thrilled with the outcome of both the laundry and the bathroom and say that they still haven’t used all of the storage space they’ve got!
