Design: Space Sense
With home sizes getting smaller, especially in condominium apartments, there is hardly any space now for a dedicated laundry area. Washers and dryers are either stashed away in a cabinet or underneath a countertop. You could build a cabinet to house them, but that takes up significant footprint and could look bulky.
Pictured above is a solution that might not hide them completely, but makes them appear visually lighter and more appealing than a solid structure. Kelvin Teo of Space Sense designed this wire cage to screen off the washer and dryer in the yard area of this five-room HDB flat. Not only does it do the job, but it also ties in perfectly with the home’s industrial-style aesthetics.
