Customising a luxury kitchen with an artistic splashback has become a fashionable design statement, reports Steve Robinson the award winning Pembrokeshire glass artisan. Steve Robinson Glass specialises in hand made, fused glass splashbacks and offers a collection of over 50 generic designs. However, it is custom commissions which are currently proving most desirable, as more home owners opt for a unique, art splashback to complete their designer kitchen.
Commissioning an abstract kitchen splashback design to complement an existing canvas or work of art hung in an adjacent dining area, has particular appeal. Typically, the client requests the colour scheme or the style of art to be reflected in their splashback. Vibrantly coloured, abstract designs are in vogue, which provide a striking focal point and add the ultimate, unique ‘wow’ factor.
“A jewel-like enamelled glass splashback can provide that vital lift to a luxury kitchen, turning a high quality design into a stunning, showstopper”, explains Steve Robinson. He produces drawings and glass colour samples for each client, before hand making each splashback, made-to-measure.
Retail prices start at £756 (60 cm x 60 cm) for a customised splashback or £2100m2.
