With the laundry center close to bedrooms, where soiled linen originates, you'll cut needless stair-climbing. Also, with a modern com bination unit, you can do the laundry in small batches at convenient times and possibly by-pass the all-day washing chore, said Carl Sundberg, partner in a Detroit industrial design firm specializing in ap pliances. .
