It was all about the garages & laundries this week, and the teams showed just how much opportunity a garage can have in providing a stylish and practical space.

THE WINNING GARAGE & LAUNDRY: Tim & Arthur

Tim & Arthur have achieved the near impossible, creating a garage & laundry space that is both stylish and versatile. The laundry has a luxurious feel, providing plenty of light, space and storage, while the customisable pegboards mounted on the garage walls provides clever and practical organisation for tools and other household items. Tim & Arthur even incorporated a dedicated workshop area in their garage.

Tim & Arthur have used Concorde garage carpet on the floor to turn the garage from a cold, functional space into a multi-purpose room.

Dylan & Keegan's Garage & Laundry

Dylan & Keegan's garage & laundry is a fitness fanatic's dream. Not only does the space feature a practical laundry area, but it also offers a dedicated home gym. The laundry features a classic navy and gold palette while the home gym area boasts an impressive full length mirror.

On the floor in Dylan & Keegan's garage & laundry is Concorde garage carpet, a hard-wearing solution that withstands both wheel traffic and foot traffic.

Meg & Dan's Garage & Laundry

Minimalist and stylish, Meg & Dan have kept it simple in their garage & laundry, opting for fresh white cabinetry and walls, and natural-look woods and textures. Their laundry features an impressive Samsung AirDresser, and substantial storage and bench space, making it the ideal space for a cleaning and housekeeping enthusiast.

Meg & Dan have used Concorde garage carpet on the floor to transform the garage from cold and utilitarian to practical and comfortable.

Connie & Rach's Garage & Laundry

Family friendly and fun, Connie & Rach's garage & laundry provides a functional space for family members of all ages, incorporating a stylish laundry area and a play area for the kids. They have breathed creativity, flair and Kiwiana into their room with an artful mural of a Kererū on the wall.

On the floor in Connie & Rach's garage & laundry is Concorde garage carpet. Suitable for use indoors or outdoors, it's a great option not only for garages, but also as a hard-wearing, easy clean surface for rumpus rooms.
