We're building our new home (Rawson - Metford 33 with modifications) and have modified the laundry and pantry to combine them into one big room. We're going to have some parts of the pantry with a bench and cupboards as well as all of the laundry, but I thought it might be better to put full length cupboards in instead of shelving as I'm concerned things will get too dusty. We will have heaps of storage for both food and kitchen appliances/platters etc.
I'm interested to know what your thoughts are for cupboards vs shelves? Do you find things get really dusty and have be washed before with shelves?
