yes, I think a farmhouse sink will be fine. Best wishes!

What Sina Sadeddin said.

Farmhouse sinks are so vintage-y and pretty.

Here are a few of my favorite kitchens with white farmhouse/apron sinks. You'll notice that all of them are bright white, and some of the cabinets contrast slightly with the white. The last one looks like it's a very close match. That kitchen has a lot of character and contrast elsewhere--the natural wood ceiling, floor and table, along with the dark soapstone counter tops. All of them are just gorgeous!

Your kitchen is the sum of all the parts, so have a plan for all of your finishes before you make your final decisions.

Looks good in the plans.

I think what's making it look odd is the plain piece directly under the bottom of the sink and the two small doors.

Here's probably what you had in mind.

Doors are a little shorter but there's not that big plain part.

Thank you so much for the opinions. I am feeling much better about it!

Leelee, you are probably right! And if I went with the Whitehaven with the shorter apron, I think that perhaps we could use taller doors and not need the filler piece.

The doors shouldn't need a filler. I don't know why they inserted that. No wonder you were concerned.

Be sure that the sink you order will work with your cabinetry. Some of these are frameless cabinets, some have face frames and some are inset. Each will give a different end result - especially with a farm sink. Some of these sinks are like a solid vessel, others have a flange at the sink front which requires a completely different build. If you are working with a custom cabinet builder, you can specify how you want those lower doors to end up, but other than that, you will have limited choices. If you need frame piece on the sides, you will want the same reveal above the doors, so the sink is framed the same all around. If the sink is as wide as the base cabinet, you won't want a reveal above the doors.

Thank you, Pacific Dream Builders. I know that I had seen a discussion on here of how someone made the Whitehaven sink work with the Ikea cabinets. I will make sure to search and find out exactly which pieces are needed...

I actually think it’s visually too big for the space. A regular sink of the same size would give you functionality without overtaking the area.
