Kitchen wall tiles range from the traditional classic 10 x 10 cm tile, to popular Mosaics, to the contemporary choice of large format wall tiles.
Large rectangular kitchen tiles, as both wall tiles and floor tiles, offer cleaner lines and have the added advantage of less grout, and therefore less maintenance and cleaning. They can provide a real alternative to other kinds of splashbacks, and provide a seamless effect between key areas of the kitchen such as the area behind the hob and the sink, and general wall areas, tying them together nicely. They are a much more cost effective solution than using single piece large glass splashbacks, and are generally far easier to implement.
Intricate brickwork formations for Kitchen Wall tiles can produce another stunning look, mixing a utilitarian effect with modernism. Varying shades within the tiles can work well with this kind of effect.
Matt tiles and those with dimpling make a great choice as kitchen wall tiles, as the cleaning demands are lower, and they can always be sure to look good. They can hide dirt and oil stains quite well – better than on a gloss tile finish.
Cottage style kitchens can benefit well from pictorial tiles, featuring fruit or vegetables, providing an aged affect to the kitchen wall.
Border tiles are an obvious chose for adding interest in an otherwise plain wall tile colour, or for making interesting splash backs in key parts of the kitchen.
