Fun Colors for Your Glass Sink

July 16, 2018 | By |

The humble sink is often overlooked, but you’d be surprised by its ability to pull a space together. Whether we’re talking about the kitchen or bathroom at home or at the office, the sink is a focal point. While you have nearly countless choices for this addition when you shop CBD Glass Countertops, today, we’re not talking about that. Instead, we’re talking about the colors you might want for your glass sink.

Color choice can be a hard decision to make. Do you want dark, simple colors that don’t stand out much? If you go for a brighter hue, will it clash with the room or make it look better?

The good news is that when you order your glass sink at CBD Glass Countertops, you can customize almost every facet, including sink color. We’ll go over some of the most popular choices as well as why you might want to pick them for your own bathroom or kitchen.

Darks

Colors on the darker end of the spectrum include black, dark brown, charcoal gray, dark blue, light brown, and dark red. If you have a bright bathroom or kitchen with a few dark accents, such as tile or décor, then a dark sink will bring that cohesion together. Just don’t go too dark in the whole bathroom, as this is supposed to be a healing, relaxing space.

Lights

Lighten up your bathroom or kitchen with hues like white, ultra clear (translucent), sky blue, light gray, clear semi-frost (a glass texture), and clear frost (another texture). These colors will add cheeriness and depth to any space. They also create a clean, inviting environment that allows other décor to stand out more.

 

Brights

Get colorful with such shades as bright yellow, red, orange, green, multi-colored (with strips of red, blue, yellow, white, and black), and gold. Brights are best for the bold who want to inject some true color into their bathrooms or kitchens. People will certainly notice your sink!

Metallics

For a bathroom or kitchen that’s somewhat neutral, metallics work well. These are shiny yet not too bright. They’re timeless yet modern, so you never have to worry about your sink looking garish or outdated. Metallics offered at CGD Glass Countertops include gold light, copper light, brown light, bronze, amber, copper-amber, gold (three varieties with different color saturations), antique (a rust hue), and amber opaque (a shade of amber that mixes gold and copper).

Once you make the decision about which glass sink color works best for your home or office, you can contact us at CGD Glass Countertops. With us, as mentioned, you can customize every part of your glass sink. Choosing the color is just one decision to make. You can also select the type of sink, its size, shape, glass texturing, and so much more.

Glass Sinks Are a Smart Idea for the Office

June 15, 2018 | By |

If you had it your way, you’d probably make a lot of decorative changes around your office, right? It’s not that the space is unattractive, just that it could always look better and more inviting. You want to appeal to future clients or customers, and you know that starts with a professional, well-maintained office. 

One of the spaces that’s overlooked is the common kitchen area. This is where many employees spend their break times, making coffee, eating lunch, and catching up on each other’s lives. Yet the sink in there might be an old, ugly, metal one. It’s efficient, but it does nothing to improve the look or feel of the kitchen area.

The bathroom might also be lacking in looks. It’s functional, sure, but those ancient ceramic sinks have been chipped away at over years of use. They’ve always turned yellow. 

Now is the perfect time to upgrade your office’s sinks to glass. If you’re still not totally sold on why you should add glass sinks to your office, here are some pretty convincing reasons.

They Add an Elegant Flair to Kitchens and Bathrooms Alike

Glass sinks from CGD Glass Countertops are classy, lovely, and upscale. Your office is a professional environment, and you want that reflected even in employee common areas like the bathroom or kitchen. When you get your new glass sinks installed, you can create the kind of ambiance you’ve always wanted. 

They’re Easy to Clean 

Spills and messes happen, especially with so many employees congregating in the bathroom or office kitchen. Luckily, glass sinks are super easy to clean. You just need a soft cloth, some water, and a little bit of dish soap. Wipe in one direction and the stains, crumbs, and other messes are gone instantly. There’s no need to go back over the spot and keep wiping like you would with other sinks.

There’s Less Risk of Spreading Bacteria

When the colder months arrive, everyone at the office gets worried about spreading germs from one employee to another. If someone does get sick and they come to work, and then they use a common area, they could infect everyone else with their germs. How do you really know the surfaces you wiped down are free of bacteria? With glass, you can be assured that you’re covered. The smooth glass has no pores or small holes in which germs can cling to, unlike metal surfaces. If you clean the sink with an antibacterial wipe, you can be sure most germs are eliminated.
