Context and Design Intent
- Make washing, drying, ironing and linen handling efficient without blocking the service yard.

Non-Negotiables
- LDY-NN-001 — Provide washing-machine services and a laundry drying rack.
- LDY-NN-002 — Provide an ironing area, iron power point and storage for laundry products.
Strongly Preferred
- LDY-SP-004 — Coordinate appliance dimensions, electrical load, water, drainage, ventilation and service clearances before design freeze.
Detailed requirements and coordination
Provisional Ideas
- LDY-P-003 — Consider an automated drying rack; model and type remain undecided.
Questions for the Interior Designer
- How many laundry loads are typical and how are they sorted?
- Is a dryer required now or should space and services be future-proofed?
- Where should clean laundry be folded, hung temporarily and stored?
Whole-Home Coordination
- Refer to 10 - Requirements/01 - Whole-Home Systems Requirements.md for shared electrical, network, plumbing, AC, accessibility and service-access requirements.
