With summer on the horizon, it’s the perfect time to refresh kitchens with a vibrant and uplifting interior. As the heart of the home, the kitchen offers an ideal canvas to embrace seasonal trends, and splashbacks provide a simple yet impactful way to introduce colour, texture, and personality into cooking spaces.
Whether embracing bold statement shades or opting for subtle neutrals, AluSplash’s extensive range of splashbacks offers a variety of hues and finishes designed to elevate kitchens with on-trend style. Here, Niza Geronga, Marketing Executive from AluSplash, discusses the top trends that are set to dominate interiors this summer.
Bold & Vibrant
“Bright, mood-boosting hues are a summer interior staple, capturing the season’s lively and refreshing energy. Vibrant shades like blue, green, yellow, and purple bring a summery feel indoors, making the kitchen more inviting and cheerful. A glossy, colourful splashback like Blue Bird enhances this effect by reflecting natural light and serving as a bold focal point. Alternatively, a white splashback can act as a neutral base, allowing surrounding vibrant accent colours on the walls to stand out.”
Adding Texture for Depth
“Homeowners are increasingly embracing tactile surfaces that add depth, character, and a touch of organic warmth, creating spaces that feel lived-in and inviting. Incorporating texture into kitchen materials creates contrast, defines zones, and enhances visual interest. This trend is reflected in splashbacks featuring finishes like concrete, marble, and textured matte, which cast dynamic shadows and introduce a unique layer to kitchen designs.”
Pretty in Pink
“Pink remains a popular colour trend, showing no signs of slowing down. It brings a fresh, cheerful, and warm feel that perfectly matches the light, bright aesthetic of the summer season. While being an energetic colour, its warm undertones also create a cosy and inviting atmosphere, making it ideal for balancing neutral or monochromatic cabinetry. To complement wood cabinetry, our Supernova splashback adds a chic and playful pop of colour. Alternatively, pairing soft pink walls with an off-white splashback like Milky-Way offers a contrasting look while still maintaining a fresh and airy feel.”
Country Farmhouse Charm
“Country farmhouse kitchens have seen a rise in popularity and continue to be a big trend, offering the timeless charm that homeowners crave, especially as more people lean towards comfort and nostalgia in their interiors. Splashbacks can add a modern twist to the classic farmhouse style, with options ranging from muted grey tones like Winter Dream to deeper shades like Petrol Blue. A well-chosen splashback can draw the eye and serve as a subtle statement piece in an otherwise neutral space.”
