1. MIRROR
This mirrored backsplash from interior design studio Fare Inc is a sophisticated, sleek, and contemporary and bounces light around the space, bringing a silver sheen that works with the inky blue color palette.
2. STAINLESS STEEL
The stainless steel kitchen aesthetic, bringing a touch of industrial chic and giving the air of professional kitchens. Choose your larger big-ticket items in stainless steel, or introduce the material as an effective backsplash. Cheap to get hold of, easy to clean and with a luxurious finish that brings a reflective quality to your space, it's a great alternative.
3. CERAMIC TILE
Kitchen tile doesn't always have to break the bank, and it is a cheaper alternative to the likes of quartz or marble backsplashes. 'Ceramic tile is a great option on a budget,' says Nadia Watts of Nadia Watts Interior Design.
4. BRICK
The exposed brick look is timeless, bringing an industrial kitchen look that feels effortlessly cool. It's also an inexpensive backsplash look that is pretty easy to achieve. You can also have fun with the way you lay your bricks, laying them almost like you would tiles with different angles or slanted for a different look.
5. GET RID OF BACKSPLASH ALTOGETHER
Lastly, if you're in the designing stage of your kitchen, depending on the layout of your home, it might be cheaper to forgo the backsplash altogether. There are plenty of incredible kitchens without backsplashes that look great, and don't compromise the durability of the space too much if planned with a little foresight.
