Digitally printed glass splashbacks – top 2018 trend for kitchen renovators What are digitally printed glass splashbacks? Digitally printed glass splashbacks are splashbacks with a custom digital image printed on them. This could be any photo, a piece of art, a pattern, or something else. If you can print it, it can become your new kitchen or bathroom splashback. Printed splashbacks are one of the most exciting trends for kitchen renovators and homeowners right now. It’s an opportunity to personalise the look of your space and create something that’s totally unique to your style, your experiences, and your passions. We’re only just starting to see this trend appear in kitchens around Australia – it seems to be more prevalent overseas (particularly in UK). But we expect to see a lot more of it in the future, especially as Australian splashback providers start offering it as a core service. Why they’re a growing trend in 2018 Like other types of glass splashbacks, digitally printed ones are low maintenance and easy to keep clean. But they take things to another level because: The glass makes the image look extremely vibrant and lifelike You can really make a statement about who you are (or what sort of home you’ve created) You can choose an image that’s the perfect fit for your space and colour palette (you’re not limited to single block colours) You can use your own image that’s meaningful and personal to you You can bring the outside in with local nature-inspired photos and designs Step 1: Choose your picture If you want to order a digitally printed glass splashback, you need to start by selecting your photo or image. This image must be high resolution because it’ll be printed on a large scale and will likely need some resizing to fit the space. Think about what kind of image will work in your space long-term. Unlike a picture frame, you can’t just swap your glass splashbacks in and out as you please! Good places to find pictures could be on high quality stock image websites, or you might use a favourite photo you’ve taken yourself. Or you might engage a local photographer or artist to take an amazing shot or create a special artwork just for you. Step 2: Choose a local glass splashback specialist Not everyone in your local area will offer this service, so you might need to ask around.
