This was a third project where as an Architectural practice, we designed and built in house one of our projects. This project we extended our arm of delivery and made all the bespoke joinery in our workshop - staircases, shelving, doors -you name it - we made it. The house was changed over an air source heat pump fed servicing from a boiler - further improving the environmental performance of the building.

A reorganised laundry space, with a dedicated spot for all the essentials.

The laundry has been completely replaced with this fresh, clean and functional laundry.. This image shows the pull out bench extension pushed back when not in use

Combined butlers pantry and laundry works well together. Plenty of storage including wall cupboards and hanging rail above bench with gorgeous marble herringbone tiles

This laundry is the perfect combination of classical and contemporary cabinetry design. With a gorgeous & practical Butler's sink, stunning Tasmanian oak benchtop, and sleek handle free cabinets . Combining style & functionality with plenty of cabinet storage and an integrated ironing board to make life easy.

This laundry is a space savers dream! Machines stacked nicely with enough room to store whatever you need above (like that washing basket that just doesn't really GO anywhere). Fitted neatly is the laundry trough with a simple tap. The black tiles really do make the space it's own. Who said laundries had to be boring?

Good looking and very functional family laundry. Great for muddy kids getting home from footy training! Loads of functional storage, large second fridge and blackboard with the family schedule

The laundry is styled to match the kitchen. Benches in Caesarstone Frosty Carrina. Doors in satin lacquer colour Tranquil Retreat.

When the client contacted Hatch Renovations for their Laundry renovation in their 1990’s home in Carine, they did not know how they wanted the space to look or how to make the room more functional. The existing Laundry lacked storage options for larger items and linen and had a dated colour scheme and tiles. When meeting with our interior designer their brief was to create a more functional space that also would allow better use of the room and to create a Laundry that looked modern and adaptable. Hatch Renovations made the whole renovation experience easy and hassle free for the client, taking the stress out of a somewhat daunting process. We designed the space, made the selections, co-ordinated the works and handed over a fully renovated Laundry that met all of the client’s key design needs.

As part of a large extension to a 1920’s house in Surrey, we undertook all the joinery requirements for the ground floor refurbishment, designing the kitchen, home bar, boot room and this utility room. We were recommended to the clients by Hampshire-based interior designers, Emily Steen and Danielle Marsh, founders of Wells and Maguire, with whom we have collaborated on numerous previous projects, and who created the overall interior design scheme. This spacious 4530mm x 2400mm utility room leads directly from the open plan kitchen and living space and is accessed via a sliding pocket door with a fluted glass front next to the home bar. It was agreed in advance that the style and colour palette for the utility would reflect and complement the Shaker handmade furniture created for the in frame Classic Bespoke Shaker kitchen, except using oak MFC carcases and 22mm thick lay on doors which were then handpainted in Hage Blue by Farrow & Ball, the same colour used for the kitchen island and home bar. While it needed to look aesthetically pleasing, the functions of this room are manifold being both a laundry room and a utility space. Housed within tall cabinetry is the boiler for the home next to a stacked washing machine and tumble dryer. Due to its proximity to the boiler, it is an airing and ironing room as well, and a hanging rail suspends from overhead cabinets to air clothing. It has a Belfast sink by Shaws, used for cleaning muddy boots and larger domestic items for the home and garden, and it is a herbarium. Potted plants sit alongside cooking and gardening books on open shelving and on the 30mm thick Misty Carrara Satinato quartz worktops, which have matching upstands. In addition, there are cupboards and top boxes for storing household items.
