An over-the-sink cutting board is the easiest way to extend the kitchen counter space for food preparation or simply placing a cookbook or a cup of coffee! The extension can be done by either using a cutting board specifically designed to cover the sinks or simply use an over-sized cutting board which is big large enough to completely cover the sink.
Another way to make the kitchen sink pull double or even triple duty, is to create a customisable, multi-functional workspace through the use of specially designed mini ledges from Kohler, which features the Prolific stainless steel kitchen sink line, that can be installed inside the sink.
With more space to work with, you do not have to struggle with a congested, messy countertop during food preparation and meal cooking.
