This used to be a store room with floor to ceiling cupboards full of toiletries, toilet rolls, dog food, iron, food mixer, food processor, vases, towels and all the stuff you accumulate as you go.      It still looks like a room with floor to ceiling cupboards, I know.   However now those doors hide the washing machine and the back of the fridge that has been pushed through from the kitchen.  Strangely, now that the space is technically a lot smaller, we've got nearly as much storage as before.  Nice isn't it?
