  • How IKD has perfected the art of online IKEA laundry design
  • Maximizing laundry room storage through effective design
  • Considering how you use your laundry room
  • Designing a laundry room to suit your taste

You may be surprised at how effective online home design can be. What comes to mind is a designer you’ll never meet hundreds (or thousands) of miles away, and you wonder how they could ever get to know you well enough to design a laundry room – or any room – you’ll truly love. But that’s exactly what IKD has done for thousands of customers, and we can do it for you.

With clear communication, professional design software, and design knowledge that extends well beyond IKEA, you can, in fact, achieve the IKEA laundry design you want with the click of a button.

Expectations from Your Online IKEA Laundry Room Designer

The following examples demonstrate how we use SEKTION cabinets in our IKEA laundry room designs to rethink your layout, ensure the room can take on tough messes, and complement your personal aesthetic.

Why Design with IKD?


Maximizing Storage and Organization in Your IKEA Laundry Room Design

Whether your laundry room is large or small, we have designer tricks up our sleeves to ensure you get the most from the hardest working room in your house. Technology is a wondrous thing, and by reviewing your photos of the space, design inspiration, homeowner questionnaire, and measurements (covered by our Pre-design Measurement Guarantee), we can achieve a beautiful layout for your cabinets, counter, shelving, and appliances.

For Joanne in Claremont, IL the above design helped her make the most of a narrow laundry space by including open SEKTION cabinets for laundry basket storage and Semihandmade floating shelves. These storage options don’t require cabinet door clearance, which is a space saver, but we were able to include closed storage in most areas using AXSTAD matte white doors.

“These really give a nice, finished look and make the space much more workable for me.” –Joanne, IKD customer

Even if you have a small space like Joanne’s, there are ways to include everything you need – including the laundry room sink.

Tailoring Your IKEA Laundry Room to Your Lifestyle

Before the clean laundry comes out, the dirty laundry must go in. Expecting your freshly designed laundry room to never get down and dirty is a pipe dream. As professional designers, we know this. That’s why we choose materials that can hold up under pressure (see: dirt) and organize your space in a way that minimizes your cabinets’ exposure to moisture.

It’s also why we ask you to carefully consider how your laundry room will be used. For IKD customer Shannon, the answer was designing the above IKEA laundry-mudroom combo.

Note that we placed the sink next to the appliances and not the cabinet to avoid potential moisture problems against the LERHYTTAN panel. We also made a clear division between the mudroom and laundry area to keep the mess to a minimum.

“My husband is a landscape architect, which means he often comes home covered in mud…[He] can remove his muddy items, stick them in the wash, and the dark doors hide any evidence of dirt.” –Sharon, IKD customer

One of the benefits of having an IKEA laundry room designed by professional online designers is ensuring it’s tailored to your needs – not everyone else’s.

Personalizing Your IKEA Laundry Room to Reflect Your Style

Another benefit of our custom IKEA laundry designs is letting your personality shine. When using our professional online designers, you aren’t limited to IKEA products. Mix affordable SEKTION cabinets with funky – or classic – cabinet fronts.

You’ll be spending plenty of time in your new laundry room, so you may as well love it.

The above design showcases Semihandmade shaker doors in juniper with fun black-and-white tile for the backsplash. Note how the separating panel between the washer and dryer gives the appliances a built-in appearance.

At IKD, we always design according to your aesthetic and base suggestions on your inspiration photos, color palette, favorite fixtures, and how the design complements the rest of your home.

We want to hear your minimalist, maximalist, farmhouse, modern, and cottagecore laundry room design ideas. Because IKD isn’t associated with IKEA, we can suggest alternative solutions for cabinet fronts, shelves, fixtures, and internal organizers that may satisfy your needs better than products on IKEA’s shelves.

If you’re looking for a unique color combination and aren’t afraid of a little DIY, Semihandmade even offers paintable and stainable SEKTION cabinet doors.

Take control of your IKEA laundry design and make sure you’re getting exactly what you want by choosing a team of professional designers who also know IKEA like the back of their hand.
