The Laundry Room Gets Its Close-Up

In estates across our coverage area, the laundry room has quietly graduated from back-of-house to a space worth designing on purpose, and the hamper is the latest fixture to get the upgrade. Elle Decor rounded up nine baskets built to hold their own in a well-appointed utility room, proof that even the walk from bedroom to washing machine can be handled with some style. It's a small fixture, but a telling one: in the houses we cover, no room is too utilitarian to be finished properly.
