Advice on floor and splashback for kitchen

last month

We will be getting this kitchen fitted in February. We still need to decide on splashback/tiles and flooring. I’d like wooden herringbone effect on the floor but not sure of colour. Also thought white metro tiles for splashback but not sure if this is a bit bland.

Any advice?

Hi Nicola,

I don`t really like the metro tiles (personal taste!!)

Here some options that would work good:

- Glass (a warm RAL)

- Mirror (kind of antique)

- Marble (something like patagonia or onix)

I like the simplicity of the tiles but personally would add texture. Pale Zellige tiles may be worth looking at.

Use similar flooring for open concept spaces.

You should be able to bring a sample home - leave it in the kitchen for a couple of days to see it in various lights - if *you* like it then it "compliments"

I quite like glass metro tiles. If you wanted a glass splashback most glass companies should be able to match a specific colour but make sure that is toughened. I wouldn't recommend mirror just because of the heat from the cooker. Another options is that bushboard make a splashback they have some very funky designs. http://www.bushboard.co.uk/inspiration/kitchen-design-ideas/splashbacks-58

Hi minnie101, Thanks so much for your detailed reply. Great to know what colour that grey is. It may be a little dark with our floor. We will definitely update the handles - I hate the current ones. We'll probably go with wood to keep within budget. Your non-tiles pic is lovely. We'll probably keep some tiles and try to keep the kitchen a little more modern than country kitchen, which might be a challenge with wood. The room faces south. I like your idea of dividing it with paint. We probably will go with white in the kitchen and then 1/2 slightly darker tones in the tv-couch area. The 'other' entrance into the dining area is narrowed by a non-structural wall, so we should remove this to open it properly or like you say, close it off. Maybe not close it off entirely as we'd lose a lot of light, but maybe put in a counter or breakfast bar if space allowed. I love your pendant light suggestions over the dining table. Details like this and a rug in the couch area will really help divide the room as at the moment it is one big cavernous space. I really can't decide yet what way the couches should face - into a tv in the corner, or out into the room like you suggest. We'll have to draw out some chalk outlines on the floor and see how much space there actually is. Colour-wise we like the idea of keeping walls and cabinets quite stark, the wood counter will add a bit of warmth, and then adding colour with couches, rugs and possibly dining chairs. I've attached a couple of pieces of furniture I like. Some may not work, but we'll figure it out.
