Laundry

• Rigid plastic baskets – lightweight and budget-friendly; look for ergonomic handles and ventilated sides.
• Bamboo-framed hampers – add warmth to stone and tile floors while keeping linen breathing freely.
• Collapsible bags – ideal for apartments; fold flat when not in use.

Pay attention to capacity (40–75 L is typical) and whether you need lids or separate dark-grey and light-grey compartments to simplify sorting.

Integrated grey laundry cabinets conceal detergents and bulky appliances, creating a spa-like feel. Matte charcoal fronts hide fingerprints, while mid-tone greys bounce light around smaller rooms.

Modern laundry appliances often come in graphite or dark-grey finishes, letting you create a seamless wall of colour. Complement them with a stainless or powder-coated laundry tub, and finish with matching clothes airers or built-in drying racks.

Locate the hamper near the entry, washer and tub side by side, and a heat-resistant bench for folding. Add an ironing board that folds into a cabinet to keep the floor clear.

Light greys open up compact laundries, while dark greys ground larger utility rooms. Mix tones for depth: think dark-grey cabinets with a pale-grey splashback.

Select mould-resistant paints and ventilated baskets. Powder-coated steel or polypropylene resists the humidity common in Australian laundries.

Opt for stackable baskets or adjustable shelving that can evolve as family needs change.

• Plastic (PP or PE) – affordable, easy to wipe; choose UV-stabilised options to avoid yellowing.
• Bamboo & rattan – sustainable, adds texture; ensure liners are removable for washing.
• Powder-coated steel – ultra-durable; perfect for slimline hampers that slide into cabinetry.
• Poly-cotton fabric – breathable and foldable; look for reinforced stitching on handles.

Singles & couples: 40–50 L basket or a twin 25 L set. Families: 60–75 L hampers with colour-coded liners to separate grey and white loads. Measure door widths before ordering large bins to avoid installation headaches.

Position laundry tubs and appliances to meet Australian plumbing codes and ensure adequate ventilation. The federal government’s YourHome guide to energy-efficient laundries offers practical tips on water and power savings.

• Place wall studs or masonry anchors before mounting overhead cabinets.
• Use waterproof silicone around tub edges to protect underlying cabinetry.
• Allow at least 150 mm clearance behind washers for hoses and ventilation.
