Since these will likely be the direct contrast to your backsplash, picture them side-by-side before making your decision.u003c/liu003erntu003cliu003eu003cstrongu003eMoodu003c/strongu003eu003cstrongu003e:u003c/strongu003e What is the mood in the rest of the room? Is it contemporary, modern, coastal, traditional? This is not to say that your backsplash has to echo the mood. On the contrary — a statement splash can brighten up a stoic kitchen, or a mild backsplash can add gravity to a quirky space. Mood is an important thing to consider when deciding how you want your backsplash to tie in to your room.u003c/liu003erntu003cliu003eu003cstrongu003eShapes and patterns: u003c/strongu003eConsider what look you prefer, and what shapes and patterns already exist in the room. Even if you’re looking for a backsplash to serve as a statement piece, see what colors and lines already exist in your kitchen. If you’ve already got patterns galore in your room, a simple backsplash may actually stand out more. On the flip side, if your kitchen is low on design elements, a bold or unusual backsplash can incorporate patterns without making the room too loud.u003c/liu003erntu003cliu003eu003cstrongu003eEra: u003c/strongu003eDoes the rest of your house look like it belongs in a past century? Is your kitchen ultra-modern? Does it scream vintage retro? If your home is already strongly tied to an era, think about how your backsplash will work with this look. If your house itself already seems like a statement piece, you might want your backsplash to tie into the aesthetic rather than compete against it.u003c/liu003erntu003cliu003eu003cstrongu003eTexturesu003c/strongu003eu003cstrongu003e:u003c/strongu003e Even if you don’t want your backsplash to be the attention-getter in the room, you can still make it a statement piece on its own. How? Opt for an out-of-the-box material. Instead of classic tile, consider brick, glass or even a mirror. Whether you go bold in color or style, a unique textured backsplash can strike the balance between standing out and blending in. Truly a design feat.u003c/liu003erntu003cliu003eu003cstrongu003eFocal point:u003c/strongu003e A focal point should emphasize the beauty of a space while matching with the surrounding elements. Some homeowners want to make their stove or countertops the focal point, but backsplashes are another option. When choosing a kitchen backsplash, consider adding color or pattern to your tiles for an eye-catching look.u003c/liu003erntu003cliu003eu003cstrongu003eBudget:u003c/strongu003e How much would you like to allocate for your kitchen upgrade project? Stone, glass and stainless steel offer durable and easy-to-clean surfaces, while mosaic and subway tiles offer backsplash options for a medium price point. Less expensive materials such as peel and stick tiles provide another way to play with color and design.u003c/liu003ernu003c/olu003ernu003ch2u003e u003c/h2u003ernu003ch2u003eu003ca href=u0022https://www.wolfhomeproducts.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/subway-tiles.jpgu0022u003eu003cimg class=u0022alignnone size-full wp-image-12869u0022 src=u0022https://www.wolfhomeproducts.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/subway-tiles.jpgu0022 alt=u0022u0022 width=u0022680u0022 height=u0022400u0022 /u003eu003c/au003eu003c/h2u003ernu003ch2u003eFIND YOUR WOLF DEALER TODAYu003c/h2u003ernu003cpu003eWhether you opt for neutral subtleties or bold patterns, your backsplash can be a key part of completing your kitchen or bathroom.
