Kitchen splashback ideas to add colour, texture, style, pattern, reflection and bling to your kitchen

Kitchen splashbacks used to be all about functionality - protecting wall surfaces from cooking and sink splashes. Nowadays they can be a statement design piece in their own right. Splashbacks are integral to a great kitchen design. Practical and aesthetically pleasing, there is a huge choice out there, available in a variety of materials. Choose tiles for pattern and texture, stainless steel for an industrial look, glass and acrylic which can be digitally printed with photographs, prints, patterns, or artwork. Quartz options can be matched to the worktop or mirrored glass and metallic sheens offer a little more opulence.
