Designer tip. “By keeping our color palette simple with a collection of shades of blues and wood tones, we gave ourselves the opportunity to play with the patterns and textures without overwhelming this little laundry,” Christensen says.

“Uh-oh” moment. “Taking the wallpaper plunge was a big leap for our client,” Christensen says. “She didn’t have wallpaper anywhere else in her home and was worried her laundry room would feel out of place. We explored a few different directions together with variations of paint and wallpaper, and ultimately we all fell in love with this bold little laundry room design that was dripping in personality. Laundry rooms can be the perfect space to try something a little different.”

Christensen uses Houzz Pro software, especially for finish material selections. “It makes it super simple for our clients — including on this project — to approve finishes and leave us comments on individual items,” she says.
