Back-splash. I want put subway tiles on the wall over my back-splash. A sin? »
· Comment · 6 months ago
catherineslater Sarah, I am waiting too and will let you know. My builder said "no", but I think it would be beautiful above the laminate splash, protect the walls better from splatters, make the kitchen look more like a kitchen. I see it at the very least looking as normal as the tall splashes with the flat counter. Resistance makes no sense. Almost ready to proceed without an "OK".

Art Palette Hello Catherine, What do you have on counter? Since, I can not see it clearly it may by either Calacatta or White Carrera or such. By the look of it, subway tile in matching white or a blend of white and light gray (spread sporadically) will be beautiful.
If you want to have some nice decorative mural, please check www.artpalette.net to have something made just for you.

What is the width of the counter with the sink and red barstools? - It looks wider than average. Also, was the base cabinet at left (facing the table) built extra-deep to make up for the extra counter width? Beautiful job! Thanks! »

What Houzz contributors are saying:
The designers opted for a C-shaped kitchen layout (a.k.a. U-shape). This arrangement is a great solution for kitchens tight on space, because they keep the work areas separate from main traffic routes. The kitchen also opens up to the dining and living room in the house, so the style had to be compatible with the more traditional look of these rooms. Sticking with a clean and simple design countered the more ornate Victorian detailing, and natural materials enhanced the exposed wood ceiling. Faucet: Grohe Minta; sink: Franke; flooring: white oak; barstools: Ikea; hood: Zephyr
