These two “Best of KBIS” entries make light work of a formerly taxing chore
It’s easy to forget just how lucky we are compared to our ancestors, particularly when it comes to the conveniences in our homes. National Laundry Day is a good time to remember how fortunate we are–and how far our chores have come.
Before the advent of washing machines, laundry was an onerous, full-day endeavor–using washboards that gave our arms quite a workout. It’s both fitting and fun that this taxing ritual is now remembered on April 15th–which coincides with Tax Day.
With laundry rooms becoming more and more important in home design–rather than an after thought–check out these two standouts from KBIS 2026:
