Looking for kitchen backsplash/bathroom tile ideas

1" glazed tiles are nice. They come in 1" squared and pop out to make the installation easy. A lighter green would look nice in the kitchen. Take a kitchen cabinet to the tile store to match it exact. The green would work with the wood, black, white and steel you already have. Some tiles can be popped out for a constrasting color like mother of pearl, colored glass, etc...

One design feature I love is when these tiles are done on the backsplash and above the cabinet to the ceiling.

As for the bathroom. How about some wood paneling above the tile area like a sauna? A large framed mirror could replace where the pictures are currently. You could consider wall paper as sell. It looks really plain as it is. You could also do 12" stone tiles in light grey. Personally, I do not like dark bathrooms, so I would keep the palette light.
