The Farmhouse Sink
channels the era when homeowners carried their water from wells into their home. these original apron front dry sinks created for rural homes, often farmhouses, were engineered for practicality. Years later, the Brits took this sink and the aristocratic class made it stylish.
The original Farmhouse Sink looks fabulous and has been in fashion for quite some time, and we love it in a country home or beach cottage, but
the stainless steel, copper or zinc versions are super moderne and top our list as fabulous kitchen sinks. Practical too, and created more forward than a traditional drop-in sink, this sink puts less strain on the user.

When renovating this Manhattan kitchen we knew it had to be packed with great style, but on a budget so we kept it frugal. Adding this apron front bow shaped sink brought a contemporary and luxury together. It was finished off with a Brizo Venuto no-touch faucet, a white quartz counter top and a vintage looking white subway tile and dark grout backsplash, it all feels and looks fabulous in this home, and the vintage looking touches feel appropriate for this particular kitchen and the timeframe of the home on the Upper East Side.
