How can I have this kind of backsplash in India, Pune?

What kind of backsplash is this? Is it glass?

Do we get it in India(I am in Pune).

Any merits de-merits of this for Indian type of cooking? Overall I am quite careful about usage, so can I use?

If not available, any other options to have this clean seamless look?

Just a doubt ...but acrylic sheet might not withstand heat & develop scratches ... kindly cross check before use.

Yes it is a lacquered glass. It is also called back painted glass. It should be easily available at nearby glass stores against order.

For being extra careful we do not use it in 2ft area next to cooking hob but many people do use it end to end.

yes its backpainted glass...for backsplash u'll have to use toughened glass which is stronger & avoid behind hob.

Designing kitchen around this splashback - wwyd?

What an amazing forum this is. Do hope you have a clearer picture by now. I adore your splashback, it must not be relegated to a utility room. Buy more of the same for that! Perhaps you could frame an extra piece as art in another area. I've painted my kitchen cupboards in 'Hebridean Mist' which goes so well with the slate floor tiles, then a pink fridge freezer and pink edged worktop tiles tie in well. I like to add a little bit of matching colour from one room to another room, moving through the house like that. It givers synergy to all my rooms, none of which are the same colour, but all of which have a hint of another room. Anthology is a fabulous site to look at for lighting. Wayfair has a gorgeous orange glass globe light I want badly! I actually adore the combination of orange, shades of grey, white and black. A simple thing like 1 Cygnus Papilios cushion by Alex Goode can pass one colour into another room.

Should I paint my kitchen cabinets?

Hi there. Completely agree with everyone, you should paint the cupboards. I really like the colours in this picture as I think that the slightly 'greyer' off white cupboards would tie in well with your beautiful grey tiles. You wouldn't necessarily have to go so light on your worktop as in this picture. The laminate you showed in your third picture is really nice, where is it from? Currently doing my kitchen and trying to find a laminate that I like!

I had a similar situation in a house I moved into years ago. I did a quick fix of painting all of the walls, woodword and the cupboards the same shade of cream. Sounds a bit OTT but it really knocked back the cupboards, which in all honesty are not something you want to make a feature out of, and created a calmness to the whole space. In your case, I would go for an off white so that the gang plug wires, radiator pipes and covers hiding the wires for the extractor fan etc., are disguised as much as possible -- that will tie in with the palest of the tiles in the splash back, and then you will have a pretty basic colour scheme of a very place colour and the dark worktop, fireplace and floor, which will stand out more. I think you need more storage with doors -- that bookshelf isn't doing anything for the kitchen. If you could get something in there that could hide lots of clutter -- even if just something cheap from IKEA, that would help greatly. Or work something around the filing cabinet that you have? A huge cheap mirror over the fireplace would bounce some light around too. If you don't want to go for undercupboard lighting, and if you have enough plug points, how about some lamps on the worktop, especially at the FF end with a floor standing lamp at the end with the chair. For the table, I would go for a table cloth and reupholster the chairs if they are not to your taste. A new blind in a much fresher colour would be great. Depending on the colour of your filing cabinet (if you use it), I think a petrol blue could add a nice vintage vibe to the chimney breast, and make more of a feature of it. I would try and go down a vintage/slightly industrial route rather than country. You may have some stuff lurking around that you could use, once you have got the base colours right -- currently it just feels a little cluttered and a bit of a mish mash. Best of luck. Looking forward to seeing some after shots :)

How do I make this large kitchen homely?

Hi - how I envy you that big kitchen; mine is tiny. I went for a warm cream with a splashback in bright red. You could perhaps add bright red accessories? I would go for a slightly darker, warmer shade of the walls, I would put large, bright ornaments on top of the cupboards (I particularly like hens and roosters) - they do need to be big though, otherwise they'll get lost. I'm sure you're going to have a table and chairs; my choice would be light wood, round, and maybe brightly coloured chairs to contrast the black tiles. Or, you go opt for a corner seating arrangement with comfy upholstered seating and bright cushions. Plants are an absolute must for me and that corner, to the left of the door, is crying out for a beautiful palm.....that is, if you don't opt for the corner seating! I would then place my plant(s) at, or near, the end of your counter. There are some very realistic "fake" candles around now - I have two which I've put into Moroccan style lamps which are only about 10 - 12" high. One sits of the floor, the other on a small table; they're pretty through the day and at night they flicker and cast patterns on the walls. I wish you well with whatever your choices - have fun and play around with it.

You could use acrylic sheet as a backsplash. It gives a similar effect.

It’s is back painted glass. As a back splash it can be used as it’s easy to clean and maintain.
Highly recommended to be toughened.
The entire back needs to be cladded in waterproof plywood and then the glass is stuck on to it with special adhesive or silicon gel.
Any reservations on using plywood then you can opt for WPC ( wood plastic composite ) which is alternative to play and is totally termite-water proof.

Very informative details @GJ Studio and @Abhijeet Keer!

Was not aware that it needs special installation, Thanks

Also the input of flat panel shutters is useful.

Any idea, how much should it cost including material for installation? The normal tiles cost 100Rs/sq. feet. If I consider 6X2 ft area, how much will this cost?

Creative Creaturz,

Prices vary depending upon specification but including installation bare minimum should start from 400 per sft and go upwards .

you can put it right across your burner. I have clients using the same with no complaints. Use toughened back painted glass with good quality. Backpaint should be of good quality in PU or it may go off within few years.
