Your kitchen sink and mixer tap aren’t just functional necessities — they’re key design elements that impact your daily workflow and overall kitchen aesthetic. Whether you’re renovating your kitchen or starting from scratch, choosing the right combination ensures efficiency, durability, and a seamless look.

But with so many sink styles, tap finishes, and material options available, how do you know what’s best for your space? We break it down for you below, but if you want the full guide with expert recommendations, download our free Ultimate Sink & Mixer Buying Guide.

 

Size & Configuration: Single, Double, or Something in Between?

Choosing the right sink size depends on your kitchen layout and how you use your space:

Double – Ideal for multitasking, letting you wash and rinse simultaneously. Perfect for large households or home chefs who love to cook and entertain.

One and a Bit Extra – A main bowl for washing and a smaller bowl for rinsing, draining, or prepping. A great choice if you want extra functionality without the bulk of a full double sink.

Single – A spacious, open basin that makes washing large pots and pans a breeze. A sleek and modern choice for smaller kitchens or those who prefer a minimalist look.

Material Matters: Find the Perfect Fit

The material of your sink plays a big role in durability, maintenance, and style. Here’s a quick look at your options:

Fibr – Made from lightweight yet ultra-strong SMC composite, these sinks are scratch-resistant, non-porous, and highly durable, making them a practical and stylish choice.

Granit – Crafted from a granite and resin blend, these sinks are heat-resistant, impact-resistant, and built to last, offering exceptional strength with a luxurious stone-like finish.

Styl’s Fibr and Granit sinks are designed for both style and durability, ensuring they withstand everyday wear while complementing your kitchen’s aesthetic.

 

Choosing the Right Sink Colour

Your sink colour can transform the entire look of your kitchen. Here’s how to choose the best shade:

Black – A bold and sophisticated choice that adds depth and drama. Pairs beautifully with light benchtops for contrast or blends seamlessly into dark, moody interiors.

Grey – A versatile and understated option that works well with neutral tones, wood textures, and industrial-inspired designs. A safe yet stylish choice.

White – Creates a bright, fresh, and airy feel, making it ideal for Hamptons, farmhouse, or minimalist kitchens. Pairs effortlessly with a variety of materials.
