That's what I originally thought, just wasn't sure if it would look out of place since there isn't any anywhere else.
We could do it on the fireplace mantle as well. And I want faux beams in the ceiling, they could all match. But I think since the floors are wood look, as long as the stain was similar it wouldn't look out of place.

And it gives my girlfriend more space to pile her dirty dishes in instead of shoving them in the dishwasher. YAY ARGUMENTS!
:dat:
We love our single large sink for exactly the reasons you mention, though it does occasionally lead to the conflict you also mention! :lol:
Here is our sink getting installed so there was no faucet yet.

Can you post a pic of the area you're talking about?

Butcher block counter. Can stain it any color. If it gets ugly you can refinish it.

Eh, Johnny_P? :trollface:
We love it. Made in Switzerland. Was a bit :waxer: but the size is great and that ridge around the middle lets you put a grate in about half way up. It is actually 2 pieces so you can put one on either the left or right side, in addition to having a full size grate in the bottom. Really makes it flexible and useful.

This is ours. It's a cat magnet because my gf leaves shit in it constantly and doesn't clean up after herself. They managed to pull an entire 2-3 pound pork roast that was defrosting the other day.

Black quartz or dark grey?
Also possible. Or laminate is looking pretty cool these days. I'm leaning towards wood though, I think it would be neat to have it made by my dad

Kitchen isn't even fucking done yet.
Trim needs to get installed on a few spots. I need to spackle and smooth out the transition from painted wood paneling to plaster wall :rolleyes: , paint the whole damn room, fix the sink, correct the fucked up cabinet lighting they installed wrong, re-do wiring for the cabinet lighting where they put a fucking junction box on top of the cabinets that's visible from the ground...

Yea I inferred that he somehow got a sink that was too small, but what's the back story?

The whole place is a mess right now. But I'll post pics again once things get put away. Signed papers on the condo yesterday and cleared out the rest of my stuff. So happy to not have the noisy child above me anymore!
