Sinks are an essential part of every practical room in the house, not just the bathroom. We all spend a considerable amount of time around the sink washing and cleaning up.

A unique statement sink can instantly elevate the aesthetic of any space and add value to your house…it’s a win-win.

Tom Len and our Lead Designer, Rachel Gilman, are always up to date on the latest styles and can recommend what trends will withstand the test of time. In this blog, we’ll cover everything you need to know about luxury sink trends in 2023.

The Anatomy of a Sink

Before just picking a sink based on looks, let’s dive into the components of what makes a sink work and why they’re each an important piece of the puzzle. Luxury sinks need to be functional and easy to use, while also visually appealing. Here are the parts to consider when making your choice:

The Faucet: It’s the part where the water flows from into the sink bowl. This part connects to the hot and cold water supply lines. The style and make of the faucet matter the most when choosing the sink. You can buy a faucet separately to enhance the look of your existing sink or as a pair when you order the unit. There are plenty of faucet types to choose from: single-handled, double-handled, center fit, spread fit, etc.

The Basin: Choosing the right sink basin for your room is crucial and requires careful attention. With a vast array of options available, you can easily find one that suits your style. Some popular types of basins include Full Pedestal Basins, Semi Pedestal Basins, Wall Hung Basins, and Countertop Basins.

The Drain: The drain is what brings everything together. It’s the most functional part of your luxury sink. Every sink has more or less the same drain functions. Keep the drain clean to keep your bathroom smelling fresh and luxurious.

Top 3 Kitchen Sink Styles for 2023

Now that you understand how the critical parts of your luxury sinks work, we can help you choose the perfect statement sink! Here are the top three kitchen sink styles for 2023.

Your kitchen isn’t just the most functional part of your home; it’s the room that gets the most traffic. Hence you need to pay attention when planning to redo your kitchen. Here are the kitchen sink trends you need to check out before choosing a sink for your kitchen.

Workstation Sinks

Since the kitchen is the busiest spot in the house, you need more space in it. So, how about a workstation sink? A workstation sink doubles as a countertop to give you a little extra space to work. It’s best when you have a big pile of dishes or when you are cooking for a big party. With a cleverly put-together workstation sink, you can have the space to clean larger objects and be more organized.

Workstation sinks are versatile, and they come equipped with ledges or tiers or added accessories that give you extra space for food prep or dish drying. These sinks also help contain cross-contamination; they work best for an open-style kitchen with limited counter space.

Central Statement Sinks

Let’s add more luxury to our kitchen sink list and introduce the central statement sinks. These luxury sinks are ideal for open and large kitchens with a built-in island in the middle. No matter what style you choose, installing the sink on your island instantly makes it a statement piece.

Bar or island sinks have become a trendsetter in 2023; they not only elevate the kitchen’s look but also add functionality and style to your dull kitchen. These central statement sinks come in handy, especially when you are entertaining guests. You can choose various materials for your statement sink, such as old-age brass, marble, or even shiny copper for a focal point.

Single Bowl Marble Sinks

Marble sinks are evergreen; they scream luxury regardless of style or type. If you want to jump on the trend of marble sinks, bold veins are in style right now. Single sinks are easy to maintain and clean; with marble sinks, you can make a statement, and with single bowls, you can accommodate your sink even in a small kitchen with limited space.

Top 3 Bathroom Sink Styles for 2023

When choosing a luxury sink for your bathroom, it’s important to consider the dimensions of the space you’re working with and how many people will be using it at a time. For example, do you have kids sharing a bathroom, or do your aging parents live with you? All of these are factors to think about.

Undermount Sinks

Undermount sinks create a seamless and clean feel. They are ideal for smaller bathrooms as the sink stays hidden. They are also suitable for larger families as they are easier to clean and maintain. However, if you choose to go this route, you’ll need a solid-surface countertop.

Top Mount Sinks

Top-mount sinks are also known as drop-in sinks. The large part of the sink is concealed with the rim or edge exposed; these sinks work great for people who want a more minimal yet elegant look to their bathrooms. These sinks aren’t as easy to clean as under-mount sinks. But they pair well with laminated or wooden cabinets.

Vessel Sinks

Vessel sinks sit on the top of your counter with the basin exposed. Vessel sinks are ideal for making a statement but are also the hardest to maintain. If you have kids that would you this sink, it’s probably not the best fit.
