How do I bathroom / kitchen / extension? etc.

Thats not to height really, wall will be pink, tiles white.

What's the oven by the way? We'll probably be after a nice induction range like that, unless we go for separate hob and higher-level oven thing.

Belling, cheapest 90cm oven with induction we could find! It clicks a bit but seems pretty good so far, obviously the handles/knobs aren’t as chic as some, but it was significantly cheaper.

The plaster/paint will get filthy as all the hot grease is pulled past and onto it from the pull of the extractor.
Tiles will be easier to clean thats why they're used

If you like the clean look then do it with clear glass, paint the back the same colour as the wall. But do go up to the extractor, that's a really messy area and it will look rough really quickly.

Have you got a picture of what that would look like - either I haven’t seen a good example or I’m thinking of something else …

Making some slow and steady progress

We inherited this kitchen and I would never have thought of/chosen the glass but it has never bothered me and never stays dirty after cooking. Old place had subway tiles and the grout was stained and generally looked much worse.

It won't get featured on insta but it works.

Google search for 'painted glass splashback' brings of lot of results. The glass should be the white or crystal type unless you want a green tinge. You make a template with cutouts for sockets etc. get the glass cut and then tempered, paint the back then add sticky backed mirror to the back of the paint. Stick it on the wall with mirror glue.

Yeah so that is pretty much what I expected - is it possible to not have the shiny look? I always think it looks a bit footballers wives

Yeah super practical just not that aesthetic

That hurts.

:D

Matt glass splashbacks seem to be a thing

A greasy thing, probably

Well thanks a bunch for ruining my vision with reason and facts.

I guess you could have acid etched. I don't mind the look, it's practical. There's always mirror instead and aged mirror is quite nice too.

That's looking amazing. I'd hate to be the person responsible for dealing with any boiler issues though

I went for a double glazed splashback. (I put in a window)

Ooooh very good

Air splashback

Is that compliant with building regs? Was told no windows near to the hob when designing ours

It's on the architectural plans agreed by building control and the fire engineer so I'd hope so!

We wouldn't be allowed to put in curtains or combustible blinds.

I don't know if the fact it's an induction hob rather than something spitting out flames makes a difference?
