Warm Wall Accents With Cool Metal Backsplash Tile

Without a doubt, choosing the right wall tile can alter the look, feel and energy of a room. Backsplash designs can enhance sophistication to important areas like the kitchen or bathroom in a variety of ways through a myriad of materials. Metal tile backsplash is often overlooked during this selection process and written off as “cold” or “sterile”—but what many fail to realize is metal wall tile can actually add an inviting warmth to a room, contradicting its widely accepted “cooling” effect.

Along with metal tile come a handful of advantages. Certainly it breaks from a traditional wall, providing a sleek and modern alternative to more conventional kitchen backsplash styles. It adds texture and nuance, far beyond what you can garner from simply painting a wall or covering it with art. Metal tile adds color to a space and even glimmers off natural and artificial light, making it unique and uplifting—frankly, miles away from cold and sterile, as many might imagine!

Metal backsplash has other advantages, too, such as the illusion of space. Through their natural reflective capability, they can make a space seem larger than what it really is. Metal tile is versatile, as well, since the colors are reflected in the actual tiles, so if you change your room up in terms of design—thankfully, your backsplash décor will fit right in. Additionally, metal tile is easy to clean—often with soap and water—and it’s resistant to common damage, such as scratching, which makes it very cost effective and low maintenance, something that many value and appreciate.
