- Maximize your kitchen's visual impact by extending the backsplash all the way to the ceiling behind the range hood.  - Consider using a black marble tile with veining to add elegance and mask imperfections, rather than opting for a solid black backsplash.  - Use an inspiration piece, like a rug or patterned drapes, to unify your living room's color palette and introduce additional hues.
