Despite being essential fixtures in every home, sinks are rarely the first feature to come to mind when you think about upgrading your property. However, choosing the right sink, whether in the kitchen or the bathroom, not only has practical benefits, but it can also really tie a room together, finishing off the aesthetic you have created within the space. Here are a few particularly beautiful sinks that are sure to add character and function to any home!
1. Don’t touch!
For the hygiene-conscious, or simply lovers of technology, there is not much better than a faucet that you don’t need to touch. GROHE Essence E and Allure E faucets are operated by activating an infrared sensor. These already-stylish faucets will stay in great condition for longer than your average faucet, as there is no need to handle them. GROHE also offers digital, pre-programmable faucets, allowing you to perfectly manage your water consumption with minimal effort.
2. Watch your water disappear.
If you are a fan of minimalist design but still want a touch of luxury, Sonobath’s Lotus sink could be the perfect option for you. Made of solid Caesarstone quartz, this simple, rectangular sink features a unique winged design, which innovatively funnels water into a concealed drain. Highly durable and undeniably striking to look at, this is an excellent finishing touch for any bathroom setting, making it worthy of its $2,280 price point.
3. Install your faucet right on the counter!
Undermount sinks are popular for most kitchens. Not only do they look striking and elegant, but they also allow you to save space in your kitchen by installing the faucet directly onto your counter. One popular choice is the Blanco Diamond range, available for between $300 and $650. This double-bowl sink can come with either equal-sized compartments or with one slightly larger than the other. This allows you to separate out dishes or reserve part of the sink for separate purposes while washing up. Made of 80% granite, this durable sink looks clean and stylish and will be highly resistant to wear-and -tear.
4. Get loads done.
This 22 x 25 inch free-standing kitchen sink is another favorite. With a single, 22-gallon tub, this versatile sink can handle everything from a whole household’s laundry to washing up after Thanksgiving dinner. Fashioned from polymer resins and reinforcement additives, this sink is also incredibly durable, giving it excellent value at a mere $109. On top of all that, its free-standing design also makes it easy to place anywhere in your kitchen. These are just a few of the wide range of beautiful sinks on the market, and the one you choose could be vastly different from any of these. When choosing your sink, it is important to consider not only your budget, but also the style of the room that the sink will be in and the specific features you would like it to offer. A professional plumber may be able to advise you about the models that are most suited to your needs and even carry out the installation, so you can relax in the knowledge that the job has been done to a high standard and in accordance with national regulations.
