Fish Scale, Terra Cotta and Patchwork Tiles: What Kitchen Backsplashes Are Trending Now?

In our previous selection, we promised to continue the theme of kitchen backsplash design. We've gathered 11 more examples from recent projects. Which one do you like the most?

Patchwork Tile Design

Western designers are confident that patchwork prints will once again be at the peak of popularity next year. Therefore, choosing such a backsplash is an excellent idea.

Vibrant Blue Backsplash

Blue color often appears in designer interiors: it looks great and pairs well with most shades. How do you like the idea of using square tiles with white cabinets?

Design: Viktoria Skorobogatko

Hexagon Tile

See how beautifully small hexagonal white tiles look with grey walls. If this option seems too monochromatic to you, add more vibrant details to the kitchen interior.

Fish Scale Tile

If square and rectangular tiles have become boring, consider alternative options. For example, bright fish scale-style tiles can bring life to a black-and-white interior.

Solid Color Backsplash

In this case, the backsplash was created using the back wall of a cabinet, but you can paint the wall any color and not cover it entirely with tiles. Or use colored wall panels.

Design: Andrey Barinov

Mosaic Backsplash

Small mosaic tiles even in neutral tones look interesting. Support them with contrasting cabinet colors — and the interior will definitely not be called boring.

Design: Anastasia Kovalchuk

Geometric Tile

The pattern on the tile doesn't have to repeat — for example, in this project, tiles with different geometric prints were laid haphazardly. It turned out interesting!

Design: Irina Ezheva

Turquoise Backsplash

Green and blue tones look great with dark grey cabinets. The tile print added even more color to the setting.

Design: Lina Savina

Terra Cotta Style Tile

Terra cotta is another trend of this year that will surely make an impact in the future. Moreover, the print will look great alongside cabinets of any color.

Design: 3DDesign

Tile + Paint

We already talked about the popularity of fish scale tiles. However, it's not necessary to fully cover the wall with them — tiles can be combined with contrasting paint.

White Backsplash

No matter what you choose, whether it's a herringbone or hexagon tile — white always looks good.
