Revive Design and Renovation Featured in Better Homes & Gardens for Laundry Room Upgrade Insight
Justin Caballero, President of Revive Design and Renovation, was featured in a Better Homes & Gardens article sharing expert insight on high-impact laundry room upgrades that improve both design and everyday functionality.
Laundry rooms have come a long way from being tucked-away utility spaces. Today, homeowners are giving them the same level of attention as other high-use areas of the home, with thoughtful storage, better lighting, elevated finishes, and layouts that make daily routines feel easier.
That shift was recently explored in Better Homes & Gardens in the article 5 High-Impact Laundry Room Upgrades That Instantly Boost Your Home’s Appeal, where Justin shared an expert perspective on the upgrades that can make a laundry room feel more polished, organized, and valuable.
Laundry Rooms Are Becoming More Intentional
A well-designed laundry room is not just about making the space look nicer. It is about reducing clutter, improving workflow, and creating a room that supports the way the homeowner actually uses it. From cabinetry and lighting to storage zones and appliances, small design decisions can make a major difference in how the space feels and functions.
In the article, Justin explains that custom or semi-custom cabinetry is one of the most impactful laundry room upgrades because it immediately helps reduce clutter while giving the space a more finished, curated look.
The best laundry room storage is not one-size-fits-all. Closed storage can hide cleaning supplies, open shelving can keep everyday items within reach, and pull-out hampers can make sorting and organizing feel more streamlined.
Better Lighting Can Change the Entire Room
Lighting is often treated as an afterthought in laundry rooms, but it plays a major role in both function and design. Bright overhead lighting helps with everyday tasks, while under-cabinet lighting can reduce shadows and make the space feel more elevated.
For homeowners who want a more finished look, lighting is also an opportunity to add personality. A decorative fixture, layered lighting plan, or warmer lighting temperature can help the laundry room feel less like a utility zone and more like a thoughtfully designed part of the home.
Storage Details Can Add Everyday Value
The article also highlights the importance of stylish storage. Vertical shelving, wall hooks, and designated zones for sorting, folding, and hanging can help the room work harder without making it feel crowded.
Even smaller choices can make the room feel more considered. Matching baskets, labeled containers, cohesive finishes, and a clear storage plan can make a laundry space feel more intentional without requiring a full custom build-out.
For Revive Design and Renovation, this reflects a larger remodeling principle: the most successful spaces are the ones that balance beauty with how people actually live. A laundry room may be practical by nature, but with the right design approach, it can still feel polished, personal, and connected to the rest of the home.
