  • Kitchen interior design. The sink should be chosen only when the general concept of registration of the room will be defined. So, for a classic or Provence style, the best option would be a granite sink, and steel models are suitable for modern and other modern styles.
  • The size. No matter how beautiful it looks, no matter how functional the product with two thicket and additional accessories is, it is not suitable for a small-sized kitchen.
