Utility room
It was colder today so, after our state sanctioned exercise walk outside, I sat in the kitchen for half an hour and sketched the utility room throughout open door. Some of these houses have had the two rooms made into one to enlarge the kitchen but we prefer to have the original arrangement. The room is formed in a little structure with a lean-to roof, ideal for housing the washing machine, fridge and boiler that frees up space in the kitchen and removes the noise of the appliance a bit further from the living rooms. It was originally a wash house and wc, the shelf we use for the microwave and toaster formerly being where the sink was. Having been the wash house it conveniently has a drain and water supply separate to the kitchen. We have had the wc removed, providing more storage space. Drawn with a Staedtler 0.3mm pigmentliner pen in an A4 cartridge paper sketchbook.
