Decisions, Decisions

Since we are running a contest on our favorite backsplash design, I decided it would be the perfect chance to get some help with a decision I have been trying to make.

I like when homes have wood moulding used for decorative touches on walls.

This is an example of such a look on a stairway. So when we were deciding on a look for our bedroom we added these wood moulding rectangles as accents around the ceiling.

So lately I have been thinking that with our bedroom’s clean, minimalist design the decorative metal backsplashes would make our moulding rectangles stand out a little more. Also they would add some extra personality to the room.

My favorite backsplash design is the Art Nouveau pattern, but I am not sure I should go with my favorite.
I did a little mock-up of of how three of these backsplashes would look, and now I need some help with the final decision.

Options for the backsplash that is best to use

From left to right: Art Nouveau, Mosaic, or Weave

Which one of these designs would you use to add a little flair to the room?

  1. I also love the art nouveau and it breaks up all the geometric shapes as well.

  2. Are these patterns to scale? I would go with the mosaic because the pattern break is less noticeable.

    • They are to scale, but I do like your point. The smaller rectangle cuts the design and if there are any small differences in the sizes of the rectangles it would make it very obvious.

  3. My vote is mosaic. I think the smaller pattern works well. The art nouveau gives a visual break to all the angles but doesn’t fit a minimalist design. A different bedspread could change my selection.

  4. I like the art nouveau also. The weave is really neat as well. What if you were to combine two of your favorites to break up the design and still keep your bedspread? The mosaic and weave could work well together!
