The best places to place your laundry basket

In bathroom

The most traditional and familiar way of storing containers for dirty linen. For a freestanding basket to become an interior decoration, instead of plastic, choose a product made from natural vine, metal or dense fabric.

If one or two people live in the apartment, consider a hanging basket-bag that can be attached to a wall, door or sidewall.

If you are going renovate the bathroom or buying new furniture, pay attention to solid countertops: usually they mount a sink on them, and below they have a washing machine, cupboards and a basket for dirty linen. This option is not only saves space, but also completes the design of the room.

In the dressing room

If you are a lucky owner even small dressing room, you're in luck: this is a convenient place to store a basket, and even more than one. You can build in containers for white, black and colored laundry at the stage internal planning... Retractable systems are the most functional solution. Unlike a cramped closet, the dressing room has excellent air circulation, the laundry does not get stale and does not smell.

The basket, delivered separately, will look no less attractive - the main thing is to select the container by size. This arrangement is also suitable for pantry.

In the living room

You may have noticed that characters from foreign TV series often use a laundry basket located right in the living room. Usually this wicker from the vine - thanks to the natural material and natural ventilation, the musty aroma does not appear. When choosing a container, give preference to a basket with a lid: this way the look of dirty laundry will not be annoying.

This option is not suitable for owners high-tech interior or neoclassicism - the wicker product, despite its attractiveness, will not fit into a clearly modern and expensive setting. For country, loft, eco and scandinavian style this is ideal.

In the curbstone

If you are a supporter of minimalism, then a basket of dirty laundry, like any unsightly things, can be hidden behind laconic facades. When equipping a bathroom, provide furniture with a drawer in advance. The wire container inside it will keep things from lying around.

Great option - a drawer with several compartments for sorting clothes. Pros:

• things are hidden from prying eyes;
• the decor looks neat;
• easy to fold and take out laundry.

There is only one drawback - such furniture will require thoughtfulness and financial investments.

On the loggia

Another interesting and practical option for placing a laundry basket is a glazed and insulated balcony. If a small apartment, the container exposed outside the living space will not interfere.

A good option for those who often have to wash, dry and iron linen is to arrange a utility room on the loggia. Here, the location of the basket will be as logical as possible.

Consider a wall-mounted basket that doesn't take up much space.

In the modern world, where most interior solutions are geared towards convenience, the laundry basket has ceased to be a purely utilitarian element of everyday life. It can become a highlight of the situation, and otherwise it can become an invisible detail that does not violate the whole image of the room.
