USE TWO DIFFERENT BACKSPLASHES IN YOUR KITCHEN DESIGN WITH NYKB

Can you use two different backsplashes in your kitchen? While it may sound incongruous at first, if you’re looking to elevate the design of your kitchen to have it serve both as a functional space and a visual masterpiece, using two different backsplashes in your kitchen is worth considering. This innovative idea can infuse your kitchen with personality and original style. Our talented designers and skilled workers at NYKB are ready to help you design and build the kitchen of your dreams, incorporating a mixed tile backsplash easily into your space.

Two Different Backsplashes in Your Kitchen, Twice the Impact


Using two different backsplashes in your kitchen is a design choice that’s gaining popularity for several reasons. It allows you to create a unique and customized look that sets your kitchen remodel apart from the rest. Here are some key benefits to bear in mind when choosing a backsplash with two different tiles:

Contrast and Complement

Choosing 2 backsplashes allows you to create more elaborate designs where the mixed tile backsplash can contrast and compliment each other to enhance your kitchen. You can mix and match kitchen tiles, pairing different materials or tile patterns that either starkly contrast or harmoniously complement each other. We’ll show you many backsplash combination ideas, for example, combining sleek subway tiles with rustic stone or mosaic backsplashes to create an eye-catching contrast.

Functional Zoning

Designing 2 different backsplashes in your kitchen enables you to create distinct functional zones. You can incorporate one style in the cooking or prep area and another in the dining or serving space. This not only looks appealing but also helps define different areas within your kitchen.

Focal Point

Turn one of the backsplashes into a focal point by incorporating bold colors, intricate patterns, or unique materials. This draws attention to specific areas like the cooking zone or a cozy breakfast nook, creating a truly captivating kitchen.

Mixing Tile Sizes

Consider varying the height of your backsplashes for added visual appeal. Contrasting a standard-height backsplash behind countertops with a taller one behind the stove or range hood not only looks great but also provides extra wall protection.

Seamless Transition

If your kitchen flows into other living spaces, you can use one backsplash as a transition element. This creates a seamless visual transition and ensures your kitchen blends harmoniously with the surrounding areas.
