Should kitchen backsplash be glossy or matt?
The choice between a glossy or matt kitchen backsplash ultimately depends on personal preference and the overall style of the kitchen. Here are some factors to consider: 1. Style and aesthetics: Glossy backsplashes tend to have a more modern and contemporary look, reflecting light and creating a sleek, high-end appearance. On the other hand, matt backsplashes can provide a more natural and rustic feel, giving a softer and more understated look. 2. Maintenance: Glossy backsplashes are generally easier to clean and maintain. The smooth surface allows for easier removal of splatters and stains. Matt backsplashes, however, are more forgiving in terms of showing fingerprints, smudges, or water spots. 3. Durability: Both glossy and matt backsplashes can be made from a variety of materials. While gloss finishes may be more prone to showing scratches or wear over time, some matt finishes can be more susceptible to staining or absorbing spills, especially if they are porous materials like natural stone. 4. Lighting: Consider the lighting in your kitchen. Glossy backsplashes can help to reflect light and brighten up a space, making it ideal for kitchens with limited natural light. Matt backsplashes, on the other hand, absorb light and can create a more subdued or cozy ambiance. In the end, it is a personal choice that should consider the overall style, maintenance preferences, and lighting of your kitchen. It can also be beneficial to gather samples or look at photos online to visualize how each finish would look in your specific kitchen space.
