Farm Kitchen Remodeling Ideas: Farm-Style Sink

Farm-Style Sink

A butter yellow farm-style sink completes the kitchen’s authentic look.

The nostalgic look of a farm-style sink (also called farmhouse) harkens back to a simpler time when vegetables were freshly picked from the garden and rinsed off in the kitchen. Originally, this hardworking, utilitarian style of sink was intended for tasks that required a deep basin.

Its signature front apron protrudes beyond the countertop and into the space generally reserved for cabinetry. Stephanie’s sink, which is actually wall-mounted (Gilford apron-front in Sunlight by Kohler), also has an integrated backsplash.
