Ideas for a Distinctive Kitchen Backsplash



When renovating your kitchen, one of the things you have to think about is the backsplash. This is the panel behind a cooker or sink that protects the wall from splashes. For most people, the idea that comes to mind is the use of white ceramic. The truth, however, is that there are so many materials you can use for the backsplash. They range from wood and tiles to glass. If you need some ideas, below are some of the best ones.

Exposed brick backsplash

If you are in an urban area, there is a good chance that your walls are hiding brick. While it isn’t a popular choice, leaving the brick exposed creates a great backsplash. If you own an older home, leaving the brick exposed helps pay homage to the house’s history. However, you have to remember that brick is usually porous. You have to add a protective barrier such as plexiglass to make it easier to clean and prevent water damage. You can also paint the brick white.

Extraordinary ceramic

In kitchen backsplashes, ceramic has always been the go-to material for most homeowners. If you want your backsplash to stand out, you should experiment a little with ceramic. You don’t need to go with the plain white tiles. There are so many options on the market. You can find ceramic in almost any shape, texture and colour. You can also decide on a matte or high gloss finish - the choice is yours. Take into account that high gloss finishes tend to show stains easily. As a result, matte black ceramic is a popular choice in 2021.

Wood panelling exudes warmth

Do you love the farmhouse style? If yes, wood panelling will be a great choice. The material brings warmth to your kitchen space with an amazing country charm. Wood panelling is available in several widths, and you can install it either vertically or horizontally. When targeting a Scandinavian look, the wider plank will be great.

Copper or stainless steel

To achieve an industrial backsplash, copper or stainless steel will be ideal. Stainless steel has always been the cornerstone of industrial kitchens. Whether it is used on the backsplash or countertop, stainless steel has proven to be quite low maintenance. You will be able to find it in squares or single sheets. Copper is also becoming a popular choice in modern kitchens.

Vintage ceramic

Using penny tiles in a modern kitchen helps create a unique backsplash. Small hexagon tiles are amazing - you can find them in both ceramic and marble. Scalloped tiles are also popular. They work great in creating flower petals or scales.

Spotlight on a natural stone backsplash

Natural stone has always been a top trend in kitchens. Not only is it used on countertops but also for backsplashes too. It can be used behind a range hood or cover it. The most popular materials are quartz, granite and marble.

Glass for an ultra-modern look

For the perfect contemporary touch, glass or plexiglass will be an amazing choice. It is affordable and quite easy to install. For more flare, you can install wallpaper behind the glass.

Clean, exposed wall

Leaving the wall exposed is yet another amazing option for a backsplash. Always remember to add a protective barrier. A washable paint finish will be great.
