    Farmhouse sinks, also referred to as apron sinks, are a great choice for kitchen design that’s one part country, but still completely traditional.

    While some may think that these sinks are outdated and completely old-fashioned, what really determines the look and feel of a farmhouse sink is what’s surrounding it. With the right backsplash, faucet, countertops and cabinets in place, this charming sink style can be very up to date for a new kitchen renovation.

    From decorative grooves to beading and other engravings, farmhouse sinks can be completely customized for your kitchen. And instead of classic white, you might even go for something bolder like a copper fixture with an amazing patina finish.

    Not sure if a farmhouse sink would be a good fit for your kitchen? You might be pleased to know that, due to their sheer size, these sinks also work wonders in the laundry room! This might be ideal for hand washing the kids’ dirty clothes after a long day of child’s play outside this summer.
