Design Notes
The kitchen sink is probably one of the most important elements in the kitchen, since it’s where we wash dishes, rinse food, and wash our hands. There are so many options, such as stainless steel, porcelain, and ceramic. Then, of course, there are multiple styles and sizes. At Greenbrook, we are always looking for new items that will meet a need for our clients, and sinks definitely are one of them, which is why we are an authorized dealer for the Karran Sinks.
What Is A Karran Sink?
Based in the USA, Karran is one of the leading manufacturers of sinks and faucets for the kitchen and bathroom. Their goal is to create a sink that is not only durable but also suitable for any design or layout. They are one of the first companies to manufacture acrylic sinks, ones that can be seamlessly undermounted to solid surfaces.
What Are The Benefits?
These sinks are built to last and backed by a company that cares about quality. Another interesting feature of the Karran sinks is the sound-deadening padding located underneath and on all four sides of their stainless steel bowl. This means that when something drops, it doesn’t ring in your ear like the typical stainless steel sink.
Their sink line is also heat resistant up to 530 degrees F, meaning that Karran sinks won’t crack under pressure. Plus, they are easy to clean, which is a huge advantage on its own since no one likes scrubbing the kitchen sink.
What Are Your Options?
They offer four different material choices:
- Stainless steel: This is a great option for a more modern design or for multiple uses. They also offer a workstation in this material.
- Acrylic: These sinks, when taken care of, have a beautiful shine and are durable.
- Quartz composite: This is a mix of quartz and acrylic, making it less likely to crack.
- Vitreous china: This option is only available for their bathroom line and is a ceramic sink that has an enamel coating.
These materials come in multiple styles that will reflect your unique design. You can browse their full line here.

From multi-bowl sinks to undermounts, farmhouse sinks, and more, sinks are among the lowest-priced components of a kitchen remodel. However, some high-end models can carry four-digit price tags. Fortunately, several well-made, affordable models are on the market.
Walker Woodworking Don’t panic if you can relate to one or all of these issues. Clutter can accumulate quickly and multiply even faster. But there is hope to get rid of the piles in your home. We will share some of our best tips and tricks categorized by the top three trouble spots in the home.
One of our first objectives in a design meeting is to establish a budget for the entire bathroom project, which could include cabinets, flooring, hardware, and fixtures. This budget will set the tone for the whole project and tell us exactly what products to show you. In this blog, we will share what a reasonable bathroom renovation budget should include and a general estimate for the total.
Walker WoodworkingYou are considering doing a kitchen renovation, but are a little nervous because of what your friend told you when they renovated their kitchen. The project was completed, and they settled into their new space and enjoyed many of the latest amenities. Then something happened. As they adjusted to the area, they thought about something that could have been done differently or that they wished they had added.
This design trend seems to always be among the most popular, and you don’t have to live on a farm to appreciate this simple, inviting style. In a world that seems never to stop moving, there is often a need to create a space where you can slow down, unwind from the cares of the day, and enjoy the simple things. In this blog, we want to explain precisely what the farmhouse style is and how you can incorporate a little of the past into your future.
