Trend #2- Choosing a Bold Backsplash

In 2024 there is a renewed focus on the design details. It’s often the individual details that work cohesively to bring a kitchen together. A backsplash is the perfect opportunity to make a statement by bringing beautiful texture, shape, or color to the space. Whichever backsplash you choose should be a design element to complement the entire space and pull everything together. Get inspired by more backsplash materials in our bold backsplash blog.
