Kitchen Sinks
Introduction
A kitchen sink is a well-used piece of kit which must be both convenient and practical to use. However, no longer is a sink just a functional area of the kitchen, in recent years it is also becoming a focal point in itself, that complements the rest of the room’s design rather than compromising it.
There are now a huge variety of sink materials, shapes and sizes available on the market; the following guides will enable you to select the right sink for you and your kitchen.
Kitchen sink materials
Until relatively recently, the range of kitchen sink materials from which kitchen designers could choose were very limited. Today’s technological development, however, have widened the selection considerably.
Kitchen sink layouts
Whichever material they’re made from, sinks are now available in a baffling range of shapes, sizes and layouts which may include one or more bowls and/or drainers.
Fitting a kitchen sink
On top of the choice of layout and materials, one must also decide if the sink is to be overmounted, undermounted or inset to the worktop.
Inset sinks are generally the most popular choice due to a large range of styles and materials, however undermounted sinks are gaining popularity in contemporary kitchen design as they help give the impression of a continuous worktop.
