3 Clever Ways Your Backsplash & Kitchen Windows Can Coexist

3 Clever Ways Your Backsplash and Kitchen Windows Can Coexist

Kitchen interior design trends come and go. One year, industrial-chic interiors are all the rage — the next, it’s all about modern minimalism, earthy and natural or colorful contemporary. It can seem impossible to keep up.

A kitchen renovation can dramatically increase your property value if you choose an on-trend design. How can you make over your kitchen and net an excellent return on investment? The secret is to choose a motif that’s timeless enough to outlive changing fads and practical enough to complement the rest of your home. Matching your backsplash to your windows is an effortless way to set the tone for your kitchen’s design.

What Are Window Backsplashes?

A window backsplash is a specialty solution with far more benefits than a traditional backsplash. Quality replacement windows will brighten up small kitchens, make the space more stylish and offer a scenic view. These easy-to-clean windows also provide more ventilation — essential for improving your indoor air quality.

Since choosing a kitchen backsplash with windows can be challenging, here are three unique ideas to inspire you.

1. Windows That Span Walls

While you could choose a black backsplash, tiling and counters to maximize space, a wall-spanning window backsplash in your kitchen is an even better tactic. Windows create the illusion of space — ideal for making any room look larger.

If you choose this idea, don’t block the windows with countertop appliances. A minimalist, uncluttered look is the name of the game with a wall-spanning window. You’ll let in more natural light and enjoy unobstructed views.

2. Increase the Backsplash Height

The average backsplash is about 18 inches high. However, going big with backsplash windows is a choice you won’t regret. If your kitchen is darker, a taller kitchen window backsplash is a wise investment to brighten the room and make it look more spacious.

Remember, you might need to increase the height of your kitchen cabinets if you invest in larger windows. One of our experts will advise you on the best way to accommodate this design choice while considering cabinets, counters and existing backsplash tiling.

3. Combine Windows and Tiles

While a backsplash window can replace a tile backsplash, you could merge the two to make a bold design statement, having your choice of timeless kitchen wall tiles installed around the backsplash window.

Instead of choosing one or the other, you can get the best of both worlds — showcasing high-end, elegant wall tiling while reaping the benefits of a backsplash window.
