The utility room ensures that household chores like washing, ironing and tidying can be moved away from the living area. This leads to a clear separation of living and work, which makes for a more pleasant home environment while shifting the focus towards housework.
Short distances and central organisation enable tasks to be carried out more efficiently. With suitable storage solutions and clever planning, it is even possible to integrate such a space into smaller homes.
As with a kitchen, a utility room also needs to be carefully considered in advance to adapt it perfectly to work processes and the room itself. You can either leave all of the preparations and planning to a trusted specialist retailer or do it all yourself with the following steps
Do you want to wash and hang out washing in the room? Or should it be used as a storeroom? What do you need to keep in there? It is also possible to integrate larder elements, such as a tall unit for drinks crates. How big a workspace do you need? To get a rough idea, our utility room planner can help!

First of all, you need to draw a layout of the room with all of the doors, windows and connections. This allows you to plan precisely how to set out the units for maximum effectiveness later on in the process.
What is the best place for the features that you have decided on? Can you move around easily and logically from task to task? If you’ve thought about this, you’re ready to take on the last part of the planning process.
Your competent local retailer will be happy to advise you and discuss your ideas with you. They can also give you helpful tips and share their expertise. In the furniture shop, you have the chance to see samples and ensure that your utility room looks perfect too.

In her Instagram account @dasmassivholzhaus, Sabrina lets us take a look at her utility room and how she has made the most of the small space. In just 13 m², she has created an oasis of organisation that is both functional and pleasing on the eye. The sand grey design with stainless steel-coloured grip ledges perfectly matches the worktop and recess panels in the new Luna beige decor. Sabrina also opted for a floor-to-ceiling design, which provides additional storage space and makes cleaning considerably easier.
The row of tall units is equipped with a tall broom cupboard in the left-hand corner and a sink with lockable doors beneath it so that cleaning products and hazardous substances can be safely stowed away. Next to it stands a tall laundry unit, where dirty laundry can be sorted, and the floor-to-ceiling units provide a space for the washer and dryer. Highly practical: pull-out shelves have been installed under the appliances to provide a convenient spot for the laundry basket.
A base unit with a pull-out table creates an additional storage area and workspace to the side. What was especially important to Sabrina during planning: “I wanted to have a space here with a base unit where I can fold washing.” Connecting the two areas is a corner unit that offers more storage space than conventional units. Above the worktop, an illuminated clothes rail has been fitted for hanging washing.
The design was rounded off with sand grey recess panels with stainless steel rails where functional inserts can be hung. This means that all accessories are perfectly placed and close at hand whenever they are needed. The rails can also be fitted with LED lighting if required.
Microgreens in the illuminated panel garden – fresh shoots grow in Sabrina’s windowless room, little highlights that enhance the panel wall inserts and add a touch of greenery to the room.
This whole design has benefitted from several new features from the 2025 collection. The focus is on ergonomics, efficiency and order, always paired with the aspect of design, of course.
