two color subway tile backsplash

11 years ago

we purchased a lovely matte subway tile at the used building material store. unfortunately it was not quite enough. found a white backed glass tile we thought coordinated well but could use help deciding on the pattern. in the third pic the center would be the white tile. I have a piece of cardboard as a visual reference.

I like the second design with the break in the middle.

I like the first and the second, but I think it depends on your kitchen. Sometimes there's very little backsplash showing, and in that case I'd go with the second. If there's a lot of tile, for instance surrounding a statement chimney hood, then I'd like the variegated look of the first option.
