Make a Splash with the Cooktop Backsplash in Your Kitchen Remodel

Every detail matters in a kitchen remodel with a personalized design created just for you. A cooktop backsplash can serve as a defining visual centerpiece when treated with the same attention to detail as other aspects of the kitchen design. If you’re the cook in your home, the backsplash is in the unique position of being the one place in the kitchen you look at the most! Make your backsplash an imaginative expression of style by working with a team of professional designers who can help you explore layouts, colors and materials to convey your personal vision. Here are some ideas for cooktop backsplash design:

Color
The backsplash is an ideal area to experiment with bold color. A splash of unexpected color establishes an immediate focal point. In the kitchen shown above, inspired by sand and sea, the backsplash is designed in varying hues of blue, teal and aqua, with occasional hints of browns and whites.

Materials
A rare material communicates the elegant aesthetic of a room. In this Mid-Century modern kitchen, Italian Calcutta marble makes a distinct impression. The marble slab was carefully selected and meticulously placed to best showcase the delicate natural veins in the material.

Texture
In this creative artist’s retreat with a Spanish-inspired design, earthy materials, rich texture and interesting patterns define the detailed backsplash. A practical niche with shelves for storing oft-used ingredients is both practical and graceful.

Creating a kitchen that functions at an optimal level for your daily needs and visually inspires your creativity can be an enjoyable experience when you work with a unified team of architects, designers and construction professionals. Make a splash with your backsplash by experimenting with color, materials and textures to find the ultimate expression of your style.
