- Long, linear backsplashes
White subway tile remains a popular backsplash option, but many homeowners now seek a modern take on this classic material. In 2022, it will come in the form of long and slender, 4 x 12-inch white ceramic tiles, as their elongated shape adds an element of novelty to the kitchen. Intriguing herringbone patterns as well as subtly textured tiles are also bringing new life to backsplashes.
