The hanging rail is quickly becoming an essential addition to any laundry renovation and a major trend for 2022. It offers a practical solution for gently drying delicate garments and a spot to hang clothes as you iron.
The standard position is above the bench, affixed to the underside of wall-mounted cabinetry. In the planning phase of your laundry renovation, think about the dimensions of the clothes you are likely to hang in this spot to ensure the rail is positioned at a functional height.
Design Tip: Choose a railing material that complements or matches the existing materials in the space. There are many finishes to choose from, including black steel, chrome, timber, brass, and powder-coated colours.

Striking and bold, dark appliances offer a stylish modern alternative to standard white models. “Black appliances look sophisticated and elegant — they have become a major trend in kitchen renovations, so it makes sense that they’re moving into laundry renovations as well,” reports Robert Fonti, Director of Balnei & Colina renovations.
These designs often feature chrome trims and tinted glass windows in colourways such as deep greys to jet black and charcoal stainless steel. They create a seamless tone-on-tone look in a laundry designed with dark joinery and flooring and add bold contrast to a lighter-hued space.
Design Tip: For a cohesive laundry look, it’s best to match the colours of your washer and dryer.

Sweeping across laundries Australia-wide, VJ panelling is definitely in the spotlight for 2022. As a key design element of a Hamptons, coastal or country-style home, VJ (vertical joint) panelling proves its worth as a versatile surface that can work within any interior scheme.
Decorative yet subtle, it adds character and texture to plain walls. It is a budget-friendly alternative to tiling that is easy to install, and the absence of grout means they are easier to keep clean! Painted in a fresh white shade or a soft grey, it creates a light and airy scheme, while deeper dark tones, such as emerald or navy, bring classic charm to the space.
Design Tip: Ensure your VJ panelling is waterproofed. Speak with a Balnei & Colina laundry renovation professional today about selecting the most appropriate products and materials for your laundry renovation.

Smart technology is revolutionising the way we live at home, and the wave of change has now made it to the laundry. The new generation of laundry appliances boasts Wifi connectivity and Artificial Intelligence (AI), offering features that will save you time, money and energy if you know how to use them.
Capabilities can include remote operation via a smartphone app and the automatic adjustment of water and detergent levels according to the detected load size. Brands that utilise smart technology include Samsung, Bosch, V-Zug, Miele and LG.

The open-shelf laundry design trend of 2022 offers practicality, and it falls under the interior design trend of customised and unique homes that reflect the homeowner’s personality and style.
Open shelves increase the storage capacity of a laundry renovation, especially when incorporated into a custom joinery solution, but they also work as a display space that adds character and life to the room. Style your shelves with plants, beautiful storage containers, art and meaningful objects to enhance every moment you spend in your new laundry.
Design Tip: Timber shelving adds visual warmth to an all-white space.
