There's no question that subway tiles are classic. My own feelings on subway tiles, however, are slightly more complicated. When your job is looking at beautiful contemporary kitchens, you start to see a lot of subway tiles. and I mean A LOT. I'll admit, I became a bit bored of the style.
That is until I saw Julianne Hough's kitchen backsplash idea. Her innovative pairing of classic subway tiles with teal cabinets and brass hardware transforms the classic tiles from milquetoast to marvelous. The dancer and actress's kitchen features marble countertops that contrast beautifully with her black oven hood and rounded wall sconce. Her white subway tile backsplash with black grout reaches from the countertops to the ceilings. Overall the look is a fresh, fashionable take on the modern farmhouse style.
