This light blue ceramic tile backsplash is anything but boring! Not only does it showcase a beautiful colour, but it also has two completely different patterns.
The juxtaposition of the round tiles with the other tile model featured for the whole is, visually, very interesting, and frankly, downright original. Also, the tile's glossy finish adds to the overall charm of the backsplash and allows light to be reflected off the tiles.

As a follow-up to the previous metal-like ceramic tile backsplash, here's another version of this type of design. This one has a golden hue in certain areas which fades into a bronze shade at various ends.
This backsplash is probably the most remarkable of all, albeit it'll surely fit better in a classicly decorated kitchen than in a modern setting. For a winning look, avoid overloading the kitchen with decorative items, as this backsplash definitely has everything it takes to impress friends and family!

Although squares aren't in themselves an original picking, that of a 3D illusion certainly is. What's more, the design showcases a variety of colours, which helps convey the impression that the shapes are literally jumping off the wall. Lastly, the backsplash's uneven surface is just as bold!
