The backsplash is glass tiles.

Do you know the color of the glass tile?

It does have a bit of a bland feel as there's so much cream but you have the makings of a luxurious-feeling kitchen. I'm not sure that it's tiling or new worktops that you need, so much as more personality. A few thoughts: - I wouldn't bother with a backsplash - the simple upstand is modern and classic. Lots of discussions on here about backsplash vs painted walls and how to clean them - you might like to have a read through. - I wouldn't combine white with the creamy yellow tones you have. A bright white (eg if you did go for a tiled backsplash) will make the creamy tones look dirty. - You could introduce colour elsewhere: - eg on the walls (I note that you don't want a dark colour but a mid-range taupe might work, paint some samples onto large sheets of paper so you can see how different colours work against the cabinets. You need something that's a different colour to the cabinets and floor. The ones you mention are, I think, too pale and too similar to the cabinets) - you could go for some more colourful chairs or blind (a blind which comes down from the top would look more modern than the vertical blind) - definitely add some art to the walls - consider a rug under the table and chairs - add some plants (real, not faux) - consider adding an open shelf or two, which you can style with cookbooks, interesting crockery, trailing plants, candles, more art - [this is a controversial one and very much depends on whether you are a "put it all away" or "leave it all out" type of person!] if it were me I'd try to get rid of some of the appliances, jars etc on the worktop. They don't add personality and look like they're in a bit of a jumble. Move the jars to the aforementioned open shelf, put the appliances (other than the kettle) away in a cupboard.

Are you saying the glass splashback is the wrong size because it doesn’t go all the way up to the extractor fan? If so I’d guess that they’ve installed a standard size as opposed to a purpose made size. If so l would just take that one down and get a taller one made. You could always have the splashback all the way across the wall. l don’t think it needs tiles too. You could add a tint of colour with the emulsion,

Hi Adrian, thanks for the details - love the Caraz! Absolutely on trend colour, and a nice calm, sophisticated palette. Always amazes me just how much influence ambient light has, as the pictures show both to be even warmer in reality. With that info, I think I'd still be opting for white/off-white close to your worktop colour - on, if suitable, using the worktop material as a splashback, but you'd need to check with the manufacturer on suitability close to gas flame. Not all would be permissible. An alternative would be to go with whatever you have picked as flooring tile, if available in large enough size, then cut & edge to suit. Now that large format tiles are becoming so popular, we're finding clients opting for this more frequently, to add a bit more texture compared to flat, plain glass.

Often with upstands people don’t have tiles as it can look a little clunky. They tend to paint the wall above with a washable paint instead. However, if you want tiles how about a pearlised finish, such as Zelig tiles in pink or blue? I can see you like pink!
