What backsplash with absolute Black and Typhoon Bordeaux?
Comments (2)Do you love your Typhoon Bordeaux? I wish I could have done my entire kitchen in it! I have a feeling I will be hugging my island daily once we move in! Your backsplash sounds really pretty- Can't wait to see pictures! i have a feeling I will do tumbled travertine as well and somehow incorporate the wine in the bordeaux and possibly put some absolute black granite in it as well... or do a border of some sort with a mixture of it all... Please show pics when it is complete!!...See MoreTyphoon Bordeaux--need kitchen backsplash help
Comments (4)My first time posting on a blog so bear with me! We are about to launch an overhaul of our kitchen, laundry and powder room. Ordered ebony-colored cabinets (very, very dark with reddish undertones), typhoon bordeaux granite. Love the reds, oranges in the granite (and even subtle greens). Have been looking at crackle tiles in tans and creamy/whitish colors but not finding one I love. Has anyone used a stacked creamy natural stone? And, from the other end of the spectrum, has anyone pulled out the reddish color for the backsplash? Saw a great burgundy/wine color tile....See MoreBacksplash for Typhoon Bordeaux
Comments (8)Our kitchen was recently destroyed by a dishwasher fire so we are in the process of replacing everything.

I like BostonPam's choices very much and am also curious how sjmitch's granite backsplash looks. Thanks for any thoughts and ideas!...See MoreTyphoon Bordeaux with a glass-tile backsplash?
Comments (7)dvdr, I have the same dilemma. I'm using a granite with a lot of movement, and I also adore glass mosiac. However, I think it will wind up "competing" with the granite. I'm looking for a solution. I've had suggestions to just paint the backsplash, but we are messy active cooks. I have a painted backsplash now and it's a mess. I'm considering picking a shade of color that picks up one of the movement colors in the granite, and then installing a sheet of tempered glass over that. That way I get a solid non-competing look, but the low maintenance of a solid sheet of glass....See Moreellendi
