What Houzz contributors are saying:
The backsplash in the kitchen is right in the sight line of the entryway, so they wanted to make something artful; custom glass tile did the trick.
A custom glass tile backsplash from Tilevera extends all the way up to the ceiling and creates a focal point in the kitchen. “It’s seen from the entryway, so we wanted to create something that looked more like art than just a kitchen backsplash,” Susan says. She coordinated some of the banquette’s pillows to complement the tile. Custom bamboo floating shelves provide room for glassware and LED lights, which highlight the glass tiles. The couple had about 70 percent of an Ikea kitchen in storage and used the pieces here, mixing in upgrades such as bamboo for the island panels. Alper finagled enough room between the cabinet and the wall for cookbook shelves. Brad did all of the tilework and millwork.Glass tile: custom, Tilevera; sink: FrankeUSA; faucet: KWC
What Houzzers are commenting on:
solid color glass tile with a row of contrasting tile
something really interesting about this. I think it's the soft aqua color that takes the high gloss white into a more tradtional vibe.. could marry the ultra contemporary white kitchen with the rest of the house with color on the walls? tile at range?
