After the shell is built, then the inside works starts.
Retama Lot Build One of the design considerations we had to make was the positioning of the washer and dryer.  The easiest way to handle the dryer vent would have been to place the dryer on the left and run the vent pipe out the side wall.

We needed the dryer to be on the right because the washer door only opens to the left and cannot be reversed.  Dryer doors can be reversed.

We wanted the doors of the washer and dryer to open away from each other to facilitate moving the wash items to the dryer.

To complicate issues, the plumber had placed the washer drain pipe on the right side and that was set in the concrete slab.  The plumber creatively routed the drain to the left through the studs and then placed the dryer vent box atop the drain line and set the dryer vent to exhaust upward out through the roof.
