Subway Tile Kitchen Backsplash
Do you want to incorporate trends that will last for years to come into your home remodel? Subway tiles are a fantastic design option to consider for your kitchen backsplash.
Why subway tile for the kitchen backsplash?
White subway tiles, as incorporated into our Saratoga remodeling project (pictured), have withstood the test of time. This classic backsplash fits well into almost any kitchen design, whether you’re going for a classic, elegant, charming, modern and/or simple overall look in your home remodel. In addition to providing a clean look that fits into almost any design, the color white in tile and cabinetry is one of those trends that never outdates itself; white can make the room classic and timeless for decades.
What if you want more color in your kitchen?
The great thing about opting for subway tile for your kitchen backsplash is the wide range of options available. Although white is one of those timeless trends, some homeowners want more color in their kitchen. As SheKnows explains, choosing subway tile in a color that will contrast with the rest of the room makes the kitchen backsplash the focus of the space.
Does a subway tile backsplash need to be standard?
As with any type of design feature, subway tile can be customized to include larger or smaller tiles and various designs. Whether your kitchen backsplash is classic white or a vibrant hue, different sizes of the tile can give the room a different look and feel. If you want inspiration for your home, Houzz is a great place to browse current trends. There you can find kitchen backsplashes with:
- Larger and mini tiles
- Standard and herringbone designs (or both!)
