Adding a splashback in your kitchen will bring some personality into your home. But, with an endless amount of splashback choices how do you know which one to choose? These need to know tips will give you the opportunity to be creative and play with colour, texture and materials to coordinate your splashback with the rest of the kitchen. Here are our splashback ideas to help plan your kitchen update.
Colour
Splashbacks should match with the general kitchen hues to create a cohesive feel. For example, a white polyurethane bench top will work well with a creamy hue textured tiled splashback. Another popular style is choosing a contrasting colour to your bench top. This will make the splashback pop and create a dramatic design.
Splashback Materials
The most popular splashback materials are glass, tiles and stone. Each material offers different finishes and brings various aesthetic themes into the kitchen. When choosing your material also consider how much time you want to spend on maintaining the splashback.
Glass
Choose a glass splash back if you love cooking in the kitchen and making a mess. It’s the easiest to clean, grout free, heat resistant and brightens up the space and can act as a focal point in the kitchen. Position glass splashbacks next to a window to make the kitchen seem larger or choose a mirror finish which also opens up the space and adds light.
Tiles
This is a traditional style that has a variety of decorative designs and offers versatility to suit every kitchen. Tiled splashbacks have been around for decades due to their easy installation, unique styles, affordability, and by choosing ceramics it’s eco-friendly as well.
Stone
Using materials such as granite and Caesarstone create a seamless look that blends well into your kitchen. This luxe look is easy to maintain, grout free, durable and unique, as no two stones are identical.
