Glass or quartz backsplash ?

Carla O'Shaughnessy

8 years ago

We are putting the finishing touches to our new modern kitchen and I can't decide on the splash back . The doors are a warm grey & I will have a white with grey flecks quartz worktop and can either continue this as a backsplash or go for glass with maybe a colour. Any ideas, pros, cons ???

Here's a modern design we built recently with glass backsplash. This was three different colors of Ann Sacks tiles.

I really like the clean lines of your kitchen , it's beautiful and I would not add to much colour but you could use some accessories with green and white that would compliment this minimalistic kitchen. For example adding a bright green plant/s or an accessory the same colour as the clock on your top wall can put everything in a nice perspective!

Hello trifides, What about chrome? Good at reflecting light.. A dual fuel Smeg range for example... A Dualit chrome toaster.. Architect kettle also Dualit.. Shiny elements will really pick up the light.. With the cabinets and the flooring, consider textures and warm elements to boost the look.. I think chrome is a good addition.. as both red and orange might clash with the flooring and cabinets in the colour and finish you have.. Think of other textures and materials you can introduce ...Chopping boards are lovely stacked and marble is another lovely material to use.. Pestle and mortar and a cheese board (I use mine for toast etc.... (Anthropologie and Habitat.. Maybe you want a cream Smeg retro style fridge.... You could then have some cream tiles or a creamy coloured granite for a splash back.. Then maybe a cream Aga... If you were replacing the worktop.. I'd suggest having an upstand as I love this sleek finish.. You can add the same material behind the oven to compliment.. Keep the worktop as clear as possible and a potted rosemary or two could be lovely... Of course the other thing I could suggest is painting the cabinets should you want to consider that as an option for you.. : ))

A15) @Dara Cooke: If you can't afford a quartz or granite worktop from day one then I would recommend using a laminate worktop as a temporary solution. If you don't put tiles up as a backsplash then replacing the worktops can be relatively easy in a couple of years.

Hi we would like to change our worktops and backsplash in our kitchen. Has anyone had epoxy resin applied to change worktops. What is the finish like? We will be upgrading whole kitchen in a few years but just want to brighten up what we have. We have elephants breath on the units and black laminate worktops presently. What colour would you put with the units? I'm drawn to the white quartz worktops but I'm not sure if it would be too stark against the warmth of elephants breath?
