BETWEEN LINES AND MATERIALS: THE LANGUAGE OF THE BACKSPLASH

The many facets of the backsplash: between history and contemporary design.

The backsplash is not just a decorative element: it has a rich history, and its evolution is a testament to major trends in interior design. Once used mainly to protect walls from splashes in traditional kitchens and period bathrooms, it has been able to survive the decades by constantly reinventing itself.

Already present in nineteenth-century European kitchens, often in the form of white or floral ceramic tiles, the backsplash fulfilled a primarily utilitarian function. Over time, it has become a real creative tool, at the crossroads between functionality and aesthetics. Today, kitchen backsplashes and bathroom backsplashes come in an incredible variety of materials, sizes, and finishes.

At Cuisines Steam, timelessness of design is at the heart of our philosophy. When it comes to rethinking a kitchen or bathroom, we believe that lasting beauty requires choices that are both sober and thoughtful. For 2025, our trendy backsplash favorites reflect just that: clean lines, quality materials and understated elegance that transcends fashion.
