When the cabinetry and layout are doing the heavy lifting, the splashback needs to support that, not fight it. That is exactly what we have done in this Scarborough home with a porcelain stone splashback in Caesarstone Mirabel.
One of the things we often talk clients through is how much impact a splashback has on the overall look of a kitchen. When the cabinetry and layout are doing the heavy lifting, the splashback needs to support that, not fight it. That is exactly what we have done in this Scarborough home with a porcelain stone splashback in Caesarstone Mirabel.
Instead of tiles and grout lines, the splashback is installed as a single panel behind the cooktop. It gives you one continuous surface that is easier to clean and far calmer visually, which makes a real difference in an open-plan kitchen where the cooking area is always visible. The porcelain has a soft, natural veining that adds depth without pulling attention away from the joinery.
From a practical point of view, porcelain works very well in this spot. It handles heat, stands up to everyday use and does not require special maintenance. Visually, the splashback’s colour and pattern add warmth and texture without making the space feel busy.
This beautiful splashback shows how porcelain can replace tiles entirely while supporting the kitchen design without taking centre stage.
If you want a more spacious kitchen but can’t commit to a full renovation, a new splashback is a great option.
