A kitchen backsplash is an essential component of any kitchen, and by incorporating the latest interior design trends, we aim to provide our clients with a remarkable and practical kitchen they will be proud to call their very own.

PURPOSE OF A BACKSPLASH

A kitchen backsplash protects the wall behind the stove and sink from splatters and spills, keeping the kitchen clean and preventing damage to the wall. A well-designed backsplash can also enhance the look and feel of the kitchen. It is quite often used to tie together the cabinets, countertops, and flooring to create a cohesive look for a kitchen. Backsplashes offer the perfect opportunity to add color, texture, and visual interest to a space. With choices like bold patterns, unique materials, or creative layouts, a well-designed backsplash can be a stunning focal point in any kitchen.

Bold Colors and Textures

Our designer recommends using bold colors and textures in kitchen backsplashes to create a unique look that will set your kitchen apart. We offer a variety of materials, such as glass, ceramic, and natural stone, that come in a range of colors, including bold shades of green, and blue.

Consider using a mosaic that incorporates different shapes, sizes, and textures, giving your kitchen a multi-dimensional look that adds depth and visual interest sure to catch the eye of anyone who walks in.

Clean and Modern Look

Clean and modern backsplash looks continue to be on trend in 2023. Homeowners are seeking a minimalist aesthetic that still has a touch of sophistication and style. Clean, streamlined backsplashes that feature sleek, simple lines and monochromatic colors are becoming increasingly popular. Matte finishes are also on the rise, giving a contemporary and understated look to the backsplash area.

Geometric Shapes for a Contemporary Look

You may also consider incorporating geometric shapes into your backsplash design for a contemporary and playful look. From hexagons to chevrons, geometric tiles add a unique and modern touch to your kitchen.  You’ll want to look at the contrast this creates with your kitchen’s cabinets, countertops, and flooring to ensure they complement your backsplash option.

Installation

Installation patterns of a backsplash can greatly impact the overall aesthetic, especially when it comes to the orientation of the tiles and the choice of grout.

The direction in which the tiles are laid, either vertically or horizontally, can change the overall look and feel of the space. Vertical installation creates a sense of height and elongation, making a room feel taller and more spacious. While, horizontal installation gives the illusion of a wider space, making a room feel more expansive.

Grout color also plays a role in the final look of the backsplash. Choosing a grout color that contrasts with the tiles can create a bold look with prominent lines, while opting for a matching grout color to the tiles can provide a seamless, uniform appearance. Additionally, using a darker grout color can add depth and texture, while a lighter grout color can create a clean and minimalist look.
