exploit the space under your stairs
Too often, under-stairs space in our homes is simply walled up and turned into a cabinet that is difficult to access and becomes a dark dump. Be more creative with space and squeezing in a couple of devices is the ideal way to integrate your laundry equipment. This design also has a warm place for the cat to sleep too!
