Choosing the right sink and mixer combination is one of those kitchen decisions that looks simple — until you’re faced with dozens of styles, finishes and configurations. The good news? With a little planning, you can create a pairing that’s both practical and beautifully cohesive.
If you want a deeper dive into styles, materials and finishes, our Ultimate Sink & Mixer Buying Guide is a great place to start.
Choosing the Right Sink Layout for Your Kitchen
Your sink layout should reflect how you use your kitchen on a daily basis.
Double
Ideal for busy households or keen cooks, double sinks allow you to wash and rinse simultaneously or separate prep from clean-up when entertaining.
One and a Bit Extra
A practical compromise, offering a main bowl with a smaller secondary bowl for rinsing, draining or prep — without taking up the space of a full double.
Single
Simple, spacious and easy to work with. Single sinks are great for large cookware and suit both compact kitchens and streamlined, minimalist designs.
The Ultimate Sink & Mixer Buying Guide breaks down the benefits of each layout to help you decide what will work best in your space.

Understanding Sink Materials
Sink material plays a big role in durability, maintenance and overall aesthetic.
Fibr
Made from advanced SMC composite, Fibr sinks are lightweight, non-porous and highly resistant to scratches and everyday wear — designed for longevity without compromising on style.
Granit
A granite and resin blend that delivers a refined, stone-like finish. Granit sinks are heat-resistant, impact-resistant and ideal for kitchens that see heavy use.
Styl’s Fibr and Granit sinks are designed for both style and durability, ensuring they withstand everyday wear while complementing your kitchen’s aesthetic.
How Sink Colour Influences Your Kitchen Design
Colour choice has a powerful impact on the overall feel of your kitchen.
Black
Bold and confident, black sinks add contrast and depth, pairing beautifully with light benchtops or darker, moodier palettes.
Grey
Versatile and understated, grey works effortlessly with timber, neutral and industrial-inspired kitchens.
White
Fresh and timeless, white sinks brighten the space and suit everything from classic to contemporary interiors.
