Mudroom: the section where you take off shoes upon entering

A mudroom: the area just inside the back door and work entrance of a farmhouse where you take off your shoes. The floor is made of dirt-resistant flagstone or brick, with visible mud stains and wear; against the wall is an old wooden bench, with several muddy boots on the floor beneath it. A row of iron hooks on the wall holds coats, straw hats, and tool bags. In the corner, a stone or ceramic hand-washing sink with a coarse linen towel hanging nearby. Several empty baskets are stacked next to it. Avoid: making this space clean and refined, using modern storage cabinets, adding decorations and ornaments, using materials that are not dirt-resistant for the floor.

一個農舍的後門與工作入口。地面是耐髒的石板或磚,有明顯的泥漬與磨損;靠牆一張舊木長凳,下方地上是幾雙沾了泥的靴子。牆上一排鐵掛鉤掛著外套、草帽與工具袋。角落一個石製或陶製的洗手槽與一條掛著的粗麻布巾。旁邊堆著幾個空籃子。避免:把這個空間做得乾淨精緻、使用現代的收納櫃、加入裝飾與擺件、讓地面使用不耐髒的材料。
