Putting a solid surface counter top with undermount sinks into the kitchen.

Putting a double sink in...do I go equal or unequal bowl?

The only real reason to do unequal is if the one sides small and meant for a garbage disposal.

We currently have a double equal with a garbage disposal...Im leaning towards the unequal with the garbage disposal being on the small side and that side being located next to the dishwasher.

Yeah I think those look better with that setup.

But remember, you are gonna rinse your dishes (ahem, I mean the woman in the house) with food particles out in the disposer side. If you put that in the narrow and shallow side, it may be a pain in the ass.

We own a cabinet shop with solid surface capabilities, I'm going with an integral sink.

Good point on the disposal side.

I would go with unequal. Alos, my parents went from having a sink with a lower barrier to one with a regular barrier...and it sucks. I would highly recommend the former.

I can't find the exact one, but this is similar:
