Once the trend came about, backsplashes featured colorful graphics of fruits and vegetables which adorned the 4×4 ceramic tiles. Stylish kitchen backsplashes are a huge part of most kitchen redesign ideas, using materials like metal, glass, natural stone, wood, and bricks. Backsplash Design Trends for 2019 Kitchen backsplashes have evolved from bland and monotonous designs to artistic pieces with different tile textures and shapes. Here are the top kitchen design ideas in 2019 when it comes to backsplashes: Mirrored and Reflective Finishes As more homeowners seek to add unique and subtle touches to their kitchens, we will see more mirrored and reflective backsplash finishes. Such backsplashes are a unique way of adding more depth to the kitchen and making small spaces appear larger. Besides, they help homeowners make the most of a kitchen’s natural lighting due to their ability to reflect light. Mirrored and reflective backsplashes are quite popular as they are easy to clean. For a backsplash that’s not too reflective, one with a metallic finish would be best. Floor to Ceiling Backsplashes Gone are the days when backsplashes just covered the area between your countertops and the cabinets. As the trend for open shelves instead of kitchen cabinets gains traction, it only makes sense that homeowners install ceiling-height backsplashes to complement the modern look. Taking the backsplash to the ceiling is an effective way of uniting all aspects of your kitchen space. No More 3”x 6” Subway Tiles Three-by-six subway tiles have been popular for quite some time, but homeowners are now yearning for something different. This explains the emergence of the larger 4”x 8” or even the 4” x12” tiles. A backsplash made of larger tiles is especially useful for smaller kitchens as they create the illusion of a larger space. They also create a sense of continuity especially if they are extended to the ceiling. Bold Colored Backsplashes People have become quite accustomed to neutral colored backsplashes such as gray, white and beige. As is evident in kitchen design inspiration sources, anything goes when it comes to backsplash colors. Homeowners are looking for ways to add their personality into the kitchen’s design by adding a pop of backsplash color. However, do not forget to consider how the backsplash color will work with your kitchen’s lighting. Alternative Materials Everyone wants their home to look and feel unique. Manufacturers have taken up this challenge by getting creative with their backsplash material options. Some of the unique materials we should look out for in 2019 include copper, stainless steel, aluminum, zinc, and full glass. You can also get backsplash materials that mimic the look of natural materials such as wood or stone. You can even take it a step further by mixing two or more materials, such as glass and steel.
