A New Use for Bamboo

Posted on August 24th, 2010

We’ve talked about bamboo before and its multiple uses–flooring, building, even clothing! And now: sinks. Yes, you can have a beautiful bamboo sink in your kitchen.

Charles and Hudson recently blogged about the rising usage of bamboo sinks. According to Charles and Hudson, the sinks have a laminated coating, so they can be used like any other sink. Plus they come in the option of over-and under-mounted.

What do you think? Is this a stylish green alternative? Or is the idea of a wood (actually, technically grass) sink just too weird?
