18 Stylish Kitchens with Stainless Steel Backsplashes

Updated: January 27, 2023 by Shana Yuri

Stainless Steel Backsplashes Ideas

Along with the emergence of modern kitchen design, stainless steel comes as one of the most favorite materials for the backsplash. This metalwork is even able to compete with the popular stone-based or tiled backsplash.

Stainless steel backsplashes win fair and square in terms of practicality, durability, and visual interest. In the following list, you will see how metal-based backsplash fits into different kitchen designs.

1. Stainless Backsplash in a Small Kitchen Layout

It reflects the light while preventing the space from looking dull or dark. Meanwhile, the essential appliances are fitted into the cabinets, including a microwave oven and a 24-inch refrigerator.

2. Classy Kitchen Bar

The large stainless backsplash in this all-silver modern kitchen reflects the light to the whole area. The backsplash itself is not only wide in the surface, but also has plenty of space in the sill.

4. A Mix of Two Elements

Slotting metal into the wood, this kitchen is a great example of contemporary style with a touch of traditional.  

5. Minimalist Steel Backsplash

This is another great example of metal and wood combination. While the backsplash is made entirely from metal, the kitchen cabinets base the construction on wood with metal handles. Meanwhile, the rest of the kitchen features—cutleries, appliances, and fixtures—are chosen to match both elements.

7. Classy Silver and Black
