A Family-Friendly Laundry and Workspace

A Family-Friendly Laundry + Workspace Transformation in Holliston, MA

At Hubley Painting & Remodeling, we believe every space in a home should serve a purpose—and when we can make it beautiful and functional, that’s when the magic happens.



That was exactly the goal for this Holliston family of five. They came to us looking to transform a single underutilized room into a space that could work overtime for their busy household. With school schedules, work-from-home needs, laundry for five, and a little bit of crafting thrown in, this room had to do it all. We were more than happy to deliver.

A Laundry Room That Works as Hard as They Do

On one side of the room, we designed a laundry area with storage, flow, and function in mind. We installed rich green custom cabinetry with a warm stained wood countertop—adding texture and contrast while maximizing folding space. Upper cabinets conceal supplies, and we included a deep utility sink with a matte black faucet for soaking and handwashing.



The backsplash? A subtle elongated ceramic tile that’s easy to clean but adds just enough visual interest. The washer and dryer are tucked neatly under the counter, giving this space a clean, streamlined look. Soft-close hinges and durable materials make the space feel elevated while still standing up to everyday use.

A Thoughtful Built-In Workspace

Across from the laundry zone, we created a fully custom desk area to support all the family’s other needs. Whether it’s homework time, bill-paying, crafting, or running a business from home, this desk is built to flex.


We installed matching green base drawers and upper cabinets for plenty of closed storage, along with a floating wood shelf for accessible organization or display. Integrated task lighting ensures functionality any time of day—but let’s not forget the gorgeous natural light that streams in through the window just beside it.

Beneath that same window, we added a custom window seat—complete with hidden storage and soft-close lids to keep little fingers safe. It’s a cozy spot for reading, relaxing, or just taking a breather between tasks.

One Room, Endless Possibilities

This project is a great example of how intentional design can completely change how a family lives in their home. By dividing the space into two clear functional zones—without sacrificing style—we created a room that truly works for every member of the family.



If you’re dreaming of a multi-use space that helps your home run more smoothly, we’d love to talk. Whether it’s a kitchen refresh, a custom built-in, or a full remodel, Hubley Painting & Remodeling brings the craftsmanship, creativity, and care your project deserves.
