We help you turn ideas into confident decisions—designing cabinetry that fits your home, your lifestyle, and how you want your kitchen to feel every day.

What Brings Your Kitchen Together?

The backsplash is where personality meets practicality. It protects your walls while giving you one of the best opportunities to add color, texture, or pattern to your kitchen. Even a subtle choice here can sharpen the whole design.

Full Backsplash (Slab)
A full slab backsplash is the cleanest look you can achieve behind your countertops. With no grout lines to interrupt the surface, it creates a seamless, unbroken plane that’s as easy to wipe down as it is to look at. For homeowners who want a modern, refined kitchen with minimal visual noise and minimal maintenance, the slab backsplash is the clear choice.

Subway Tile
Subway tile is the most widely used backsplash option for good reason—it works in nearly any kitchen and holds up over time without feeling dated. The surface itself is easy to clean, though it’s worth noting that more grout lines mean a busier visual pattern and more surface area to maintain. Wider tiles with tighter spacing keep the look cleaner; smaller tiles with more grout will add more texture and activity to the wall.

Mosaics
Mosaic backsplashes make a statement. The intricate patterns and varied materials can add real personality to a kitchen, but that complexity comes with trade-offs. The high number of grout lines makes cleaning more involved, and the busy visual pattern isn’t the right fit for every space. Mosaics work best as an accent—behind a range or in a defined area—where the detail can shine without overwhelming the room.
