The kitchen backsplashes are known to be the most prominent or important parts of the interior of the kitchen. This DecorDezine article has more information on attractive patterns for backsplash tiles.
The main purpose of having the backsplash is to prevent the spilling of any kinds of liquid substances on the walls of the kitchen. The kitchen backsplash can be made of marble, granite or tiles.
Tiles are available in various attractive patterns and hence have become the most preferred choice for many interior designers.

Options You Can Choose From
There are many interesting patterns available, to make it the most noticeable and a center of attention in the kitchen.
Mosaic tiles are very popular. You should start fixing these tiles along the countertop and ensure that they have been set properly. During the cutting process, which is done before you finally apply the grout, you should move the tile along the wet saw.
Vinyl is also well-known and widely used tile. According to many interior designers, sticky vinyl tiles can be easily installed. You can select any kitchen design which you like personally on a template, and then go ahead and finalize it for your backsplash, when you are fully convinced that it would look good.
There are many ceramic tile backsplash designs as well. Best thing is that they are long-lasting, strong, and highly durable along with the stunning look they give to the kitchen. Choose the colors and patterns based on the color scheme which you have used for the rest of your kitchen.
The patterns for ceramic tiles should be complementary to those used for flooring. Stainless steel tiles can enhance the look of your kitchen. They are resistant to heat, durable, clean, not very tedious to maintain but cost you more. Many interior designers mix the stainless steel tiles with different tiles such as those made up of stones or glass.
Another unique way of designing a tile backsplash is by combining different textures, which are available in plenty in the market. The kitchen will really look nice if you can combine ceramic and glass tiles together. Stone tile backsplash, composed of various types of tiles such as limestone, old rock, or marble can also be a good idea for your kitchen.
Travertine tiles, which are composed of minerals found in the springs and rivers can also be an option. The forms or the patterns in which the travertine tiles are obtained can be polished, brushed, matte or tumbled. However, there is a danger of these tiles getting eroded due to certain chemicals and materials.
Granite tiles are also becoming popular for decorating backsplash in an innovative way.
Hope this information has definitely proved to be of a great use for you. Before deciding on which tiles to install, you should think about the pros and cons of having those tiles by consulting professionals.
