Could you please help me with some Splashback Colour ideas for my kitchen? Benchtop is caesarstone Seattle sky 2020 (green undertone). Cupboards are dulux whisper white.
We we recommended to go with dulux metallic wistful gem, however it is not available.
Ideas very welcome!

Wall and splashback colours for kitchen
Comments (1)What did you end up going with Leanda?...See Morekitchen splashback colour injection
Comments (2)Perhaps you could follow MB's advice and match the sofa colour for the splashback, then introduce the teal blue with accessories. I like the following images showing those tones together. You would need some more wood items to add warmth to the glossy white kitchen though. Do you have a picture of your sofa handy?...See MoreHelp me pick splashback colour
Comments (48)I agree that it's hard to choose the style without seeing the rest of the house but that a charcoal colour (same as the island cupboards) would tie in best with the colour scheme you have. Depending on the look of the house you have a lot of options to choose from and a lot depends on personal taste or budget. Glass is easy to keep clean and is a modern look if you are not wanting to draw attention to the splashback. Mirror (plain - modern or distressed - character) is lovely if you have something nice reflected in it. If the kitchen is messy though, it doubles the mess. Subway tiles (regular or irregular, tiled in brick format or herringbone) are always a lovely classic choice - but be mindful of grout issues. Arabesque or patterned tiles add more character if you're after tiles with a wow factor. I personally love stone, marble or quartz for an elegant, timeless look and in a charcoal or grey with veins I think would look stunning with the lamps as well as tying in the white and grey cabinetry. You can also do marble tiles that are a little less exxy than a slab although in the end I was surprised that the marble didn't cost much more than the caesarstone. Choices, choices!! Good luck. Your kitchen looks lovely!...See MoreSplashback Colour Help - Fresh Concrete & White Kitchen
Comments (2)Is the kitchen part of an open plan to dining and living room? Is this your forever house? Is the photo above your kitchen or an idea of something you quite like? Do you have a floor plan?...See More

8 years agoThese are expensive but will add a fantastic WOW factor to your home. I am hoping to do the same to my kitchen which is not dissimilar to yours. They are produced by a NZ photographer and are mainly NZ scenes, but there are some generic ones and you can buy the copyright to the photos and have them made over here. The website is:

This is one of the photos which has quite a bit of green in it.
They also have some specials from time to time, so check the website out.

8 years agoWe used a metallic colour with our 'slumped' glass splash back.
I can't remember the colour name but it had a khaki type sheen... Was very neutral, but it was interesting with texture and looked different with various light.
Was expensive, but 'goes' with anything and colour can be brought in with other ways... Was fine to keep clean.
Have a think about power points... Practical vs aesthetics...
I wished mine had been a little different.

8 years agoI would go with something interesting and with some colour or strong texture. Our kitchen is very similar and I chose a large porcelain tile in a light taupe colour, but it left the kitchen very lacklustre. I was nervous about colour but wish I had gone with subway tile, pressed metal or a Moroccan type connecting pattern tile. My plain kitchen is also very masculine.
