Comments (2)Hi Take your cue from the ajoining room. Is there a piece of art you admire or soft furnishings that could give you a clue. The trick is to take the colour from an art piece that is used LEAST to give cohesion without 'match-matchy' effect. Have fun....See MoreTiled kitchen splashback advice
Comments (14)My two cents worth would be to extend the tiles to cover everything below the canopy of the extractor (could go higher but that would be the minimum) and use that as your level on the other wall. So you ignore the curved glass (I assume that that's kind of the point of being transparent) and go with the straight edges of the tiles. You certainly wouldn't want a funny little segment of painted wall below the curved glass – it will look awkward and be very difficult to keep clean. My remaining concern is – have you already installed the rangehood or can it be easily taken back down to allow the tiler to do a really good, neat job and then the rangehood can be installed nice and tight against the tiles?...See MoreAdvice on splashback colours

Comments (1)Hi Emma, You can get the splashback tiles professionally sprayed, this will give a good quality finish and since it's only a small area it shouldn't be too costly. I'm sure there will be a number of company's in your area that will be able to come out and the work for you. There is the DIY version but this is the one where people can have issues with the finish. Best of luck, MKG...See More
PRO8 years agoI would go with a tiled splashback that has variety or movement. For example, a sheet of mixed size rectangular tiles in mixed colours/finishes. Incorporate cream, warm greys, possible stainless steel and if you are feeling brave, a darker charcoal colour. What about a solid slab of stone with a marble look and feel? Like Caesarstone Statuario Nuvo?

8 years agoI did metalic from Giesha Tiles Underwood Qld range. This is the bathroom one Ive chosen but there are some great kitchen options. I did a square type metalic pattern.
