Between choosing a layout, appliances, and a color scheme, there's a lot to consider when designing or sprucing up a kitchen. And that's exactly why we're focusing on the fun part right now: backsplash, which basically just refers to the kitchen wall material. Backsplashes can span the entire wall, they can be a pop behind the range, or they can cover the area between the countertops and cabinets. And then there's the big wide world of texture and color they open up.

Wood

Wood is one of the most common materials used for backsplashes and this should come as no surprise. A wooden backsplash has a way of adding a polished and classy look to your kitchen. If that’s the general decor style of your home, it will be a good fit. Your concerns about how safe it is to use wood in your kitchen are valid but as long as the wood is maintained properly, you have no reason to worry.

Sky-High

Instead of merely doing a backsplash, run tile up to the ceiling. It makes more of an impact that way. In this designed space, the subway tiles complement both the formal, sophisticated elements as well as the more casual and approachable parts.

Matching Island

Lacquer, marble, tiles! This fabulously over-the-top kitchen designed isn't afraid to have fun. For a similar look, choose a backsplash that corresponds with the kitchen island and then use tile on the floors.

Chalk Wall

Chalkboards are no longer restricted to schools and are now found in more homes than before. A chalkboard wall is an absolute delight for creatives and families with children. It gives you the chance to give your kitchen an extra personal touch. You get to decide the final look by writing and drawing as much as you want. You can also switch things up whenever you want since the paint can be cleaned. With its solid black color, there’s a classy feel to it.
