The use of a solid slab quartz splashback for kitchens is a growing trend this year in contemporary kitchen design. Moving away from tiles, a single slab of quartz offers a more streamlined, minimal look to your kitchen design, as well as bringing in a beautiful focal point to the space.
We are particularly loving the use of both a quartz worktop and splashback for a seamless look and have noticed that quartz surfaces with bold, contemporary veining and movement are particularly on trend.
