Throughout the home there is potential for hardware to help create a number of multifunctional spaces. Laundry / Mud room combinations have steadily been gaining in popularity. Bathrooms have become personal spas. Butler pantries offer additional prep and storage space. And closets have evolved into dressing rooms and peaceful sanctuaries.
Laundry / Mud Room
We often see home designs where the laundry room is located near a high traffic entrance for the immediate family. Whether it is located at a back door or on the receiving end of an entrance from the garage, having enough space to hang coats, kick off dirty shoes and store extra items for the season can add a world of possibilities to your home.
Mud rooms and laundry can benefit from a few Marathon Hardware products. Drawers, lift systems, and coat hooks for entryway coat racks, pullout laundry hampers for storing dirty laundry, and pullout waste systems for immediately discarding trash and recycling coming into the home. Shelving and closet rods for hanging and air drying clean laundry can also be added. As well as beautiful decorative hardware to tie the aesthetic together.
Hardware for a Personal Spa
The bathroom, especially the main ensuite, should be a place to escape the lulls of everyday life. A place to wash away your stress and emerge feeling refreshed and revitalized.
To help you achieve the feeling of your own personal spa, Float modular shelving and Salice PIN shelving are two ways to create an open, airy, and modern storage solution for freshly washed bath and hand towels. Small pullout hampers and waste bins hide dirty clothing and discarded waste while keeping a clean, spa-like aesthetic. Adding one more storage element for bathrooms in particular is the Syphon Plus plumbing cutout insert for vanity drawers. Working around the existing plumbing, Syphon Plus creates one more fully usable drawer. Perfect for all those little amenities / toiletries, while clearing clutter from the countertop.
Butler Pantry Hardware
Butler pantries offer a storage and prep space just mere steps away from the kitchen. This helps to alleviate excess traffic in the kitchen, while dedicating space to items and functions of your choosing.
Tall upper cabinets, lift systems, built-in pantries with internal drawers, walk-in pantries with shelving systems, pocket doors, and fall flap doors for appliance garages are just some of the ways you can use functional hardware to customize a butler pantry.
Closet / Dressing Room
A design trend growing in popularity over the last few years is the evolution of the large walk-in closet. Displaying in-season garments, storage for out-of-season clothing, and space to try on different outfits are the three most crucial necessities in today’s personal dressing room.
SLIM open shelving by Eureka is a great solution for turning a standard closet into a high-end fashion experience. Legacy Prima drawer systems offer everything you need to display and concentrate all similar items to their respective homes. Round out this luxurious way to start your day with beautiful designer decorative cabinet hardware from Viefe, Amerock, Eureka, and Citterio Giulio.
