1. Wide Plank Flooring

[Engineered hardwood](https://www.flooranddecor.com/wide-width-wood) and wood-look laminate, [vinyl ](https://www.flooranddecor.com/extra-wide-vinyl)and tile are not only durable but also boast wider and longer planks. With options over nine inches wide, they create a high-end look that lasts.

2. Herringbone Patterns

Shake up traditional and install classic [subway tile](https://www.flooranddecor.com/subway-decoratives) and wood planks in a herringbone pattern. The installation pattern makes all the difference in creating a custom kitchen beyond builder grade.

3. Pops of Color

Add zest to your kitchen with a [pop of color](https://www.flooranddecor.com/tile). Deep hues offset neutral materials for high-end combinations, like hunter green with honeyed oak or navy with Carrara marble. Create dimension with bold and colorful backsplash tiles.

4. Butcher Block Shelving

Open shelving makes even the smallest kitchens feel more spacious. Install open shelving over the backsplash to create depth and dimension and showcase fresh tile. [Butcher block](https://www.flooranddecor.com/wood-butcher-block-countertops) is the most popular material for this project, adding a natural element to the space with the warmth of wood.

5. Marble Backsplashes

Make your kitchen gourmet with a marble backsplash. The material is a timeless luxury that’s also versatile for changing styles.
