Netty, firstly thank you for posting your question because we are stuck on splashback ideas also and the only difference between our kitchens is that you have opted for gloss on your cupboards and we have gone satin. We are currently waiting on our shi*take bench tops to be installed.... hopefully within the next week. After much googling, hubby has decided that he likes the glass bullet style in a neutral tone (much like the tile you have gone with but in glass obviously) and I am liking the bullet style tile also, just not sure whether glass or a mix of stone, glass etc would work. At least I know we are on the right track now, so thanks again! Can't wait to see a photo when your done (hint hint ;-) )

We recently did a splash back in our new kitchen using 41 x 41 mm square stainless still tiles from a company in Western Australia called ALLOY. They look amazing and everyone comments on them. They make tiles out of lots of different metals and in larger (and smaller) sizes.

Hi Heidi, your Kitchen looks very now. I hope I can help with your concern about having a "green tinge" to your glass splashbacks if you use a light colour. There is a glass on the market which has been developed as a Low Iron glass, which has perfect clarity and allows light colours to be used without being distorted. (One brand name is called Opti-Clear Glass ) We recently put Designer White splashbacks in at Auldana for a client, where we also used a very fine metalic first coat under the glass which looks great when it catches the light. If you like the lack of grout lines that Glass offers and like its easy clean benefits but are concerned about the gloss of glass and prefer something different; then there is another large format sheet product on the market that you may like to consider called Neolith (see : https://www.cdkstone.com.au/surfaces-neolith/ ) This material has some 42 styles / colours / patterns which comes in a range of matte, textures and gloss finishes which can help add character and interest. Like Neolith the makers of Quantum Quatz also make a large format Porcelain thin sheet in a range of colours and testures which we use for Splashbacks called QuantumSix+. Hope this information helps.

Agree with others. I have had black shiny glass splashbacks and that was an absolute nightmare to keep clean and shiny. Definitely matte, and careful with the tone of grey as some lean toward blue or yellow so you want to match the grey in your beautiful benchtops. Hope this helps.
