Are you bored of your current kitchen design? Do you keep dreaming up ways to refresh your décor without having to do a complete refurbishment?
Maybe you’ve landed on the idea of glass wall art for kitchens, but aren’t sure where to start.
Well, if you’re searching for something to cover up grubby kitchen walls and tie your colour scheme together, you should look no further than a toughened glass splashback.
You’ll be glad to know that not only can toughened glass splashbacks shield your walls from splashes, but they can also double as modern glass wall art!
With so many designs available from bespoke glass manufacturers like The Glass Warehouse, you can get extra value from splashbacks by using them as glass art for your walls.
Here are some of the options you can choose from to protect your kitchen walls in style!
Coloured glass splashback
A coloured glass splashback is a simple but very effective choice, offering a contemporary backdrop that can add new dimension and brightness to a bland kitchen design.
The back side of the glass is painted to create a unique depth of colour under the smooth surface. This sleek expanse of colour – whether a bold or pastel hue – helps to set the mood.
While monochromatic paintings can be divisive in art museums, in your own home or business, you get to choose the exact shade to complement or contrast your interiors.
Printed glass splashback
These days, digital printing technology allows images to be printed on the rear side of sheets of toughened glass. Meaning your splashback can feature a cool graphic or illustration!
This creates wall art without a frame, allowing you to establish the atmosphere in a unique way with a scenic print behind glass or a piece of abstract glass wall art to reflect your personality.
For example, a soothing nature shot for a calm kitchen, a dramatic cityscape for the energetic central hub of the household, or metallic geometric patterns for an elegant setting.
Marble glass splashback
Marble and granite splashbacks are often used as centrepieces in kitchens for a high-end look, but there are two problems – the high-end price tag and the porous nature of real stone.
Thankfully, if you want to replicate the textured look of a natural stone splashback, you can do so more affordably with printed glass, which has a smooth wipe-clean surface.
Combining sophistication with practicality, you’ll get the aesthetic beauty of colourful marble patterns without the maintenance concerns – it’s the perfect glass decoration on your wall!
Glitter glass splashback
If subtlety has never been your forte, you might prefer something fancier to create a special focal piece on your kitchen wall – such as a sparkly splashback made from glitter glass.
Enhancing back-painted glass with plenty of sparkle, you can mix any paint colour with silver, gold, or rainbow glitter to flaunt your glamorous style without compromising on practicality.
Glittery glass makes eye-catching wall art, but despite the shimmer, the surface remains sleek and shiny, so you can enjoy the lustrous look without worrying about a rough texture.
Custom glass splashback
Why settle for a standard splashback when you could create one-of-a-kind tempered glass wall art? With printed glass, you can choose your own custom image instead of a pre-set design!
Whether this is a photo you’ve taken personally or a stock image you’ve purchased, you can bring whatever makes you happy into your home by printing it on a glass splashback.
When you order from suppliers like The Glass Warehouse, all you have to do is provide a high-quality image and they can digitally print it for you to create your custom glass splashback.
