There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to kitchen backsplash. Some homeowners and designers like a low-profile splashback that doesn't go too far up the wall, in-keeping with a more minimalist kitchen. In this format, backsplash typically ends at the base of the upper cabinets or just an inch or two above the countertop. For others, the kitchen splashback takes on a starring role in the kitchen, creating a focal point that frames the window.
There are a couple of factors at play here to help you decide which look is right for you - the color, and material of your chosen splashback, and the budget for a start (you might want to think twice before you clad an entire wall with expensive Carrera marble!) So how high do you go? And is taking the kitchen backsplash around the window a good look? To settle the debate, we've spoken to the kitchen experts to get their advice.
