Cityscape Printed Splashbacks
Bring the energy and structure of the urban landscape into your kitchen with our Cityscape Printed Splashbacks. This collection features high-resolution imagery of iconic skylines, architectural silhouettes, and evocative city moments, all printed directly onto premium toughened glass. Designed for contemporary homes and statement interiors, these splashbacks offer a unique blend of practical elegance and striking visual appeal, transforming your kitchen or utility space into a dynamic environment.
At CreoGlass, we understand that your kitchen is as individual as your taste. Rather than treating splashbacks as standard wall panels, we create bespoke glass solutions designed to integrate seamlessly with your specific kitchen layout. Our splashbacks can be artfully designed to flow around worktops, cabinetry, integrated sockets, awkward corners, extractor hoods, and any other unique kitchen features, ensuring a perfect, uninterrupted finish.
Opting for a bespoke, surveyed, and installed splashback from CreoGlass offers a distinct advantage over standard-size, DIY options. While DIY splashbacks can be a cost-effective choice for those with precise measurements and installation skills, our service provides a fully managed process. This includes professional site surveys to guarantee exact dimensions, precise manufacturing to your kitchen's unique configuration, and expert installation, ensuring a flawless fit and finish that standard panels cannot replicate.
Explore Cityscape Splashbacks
The Cityscape collection specialises in bringing the visual drama of urban environments into your home. Our principal offering within this range is the captivating printed design, featuring:
-
High-Resolution Cityscape Prints: Choose from a curated selection of iconic global skylines and urban perspectives, printed with exceptional clarity and depth onto toughened glass.
-
Toughened Glass Construction: All panels are manufactured from durable, heat-resistant toughened glass, ensuring longevity and safety in a busy kitchen environment.
-
Grout-Free Surfaces: Unlike tiles, our smooth glass splashbacks eliminate grout lines, offering a sleek, easy-to-clean surface that enhances visual continuity.
Designed Around Your Kitchen
A Cityscape splashback can become the commanding focal point of your kitchen, or a subtle complement to your existing interior scheme. Consider how the chosen cityscape design will interact with your cabinet colours, worktop materials, flooring, and lighting. Bold, geometric city prints often lend themselves exceptionally well to contemporary, handleless, or minimalist kitchens, particularly those featuring neutral tones, concrete effects, or glossy finishes. They can introduce a sense of depth and character, creating a modern architectural feel that complements highly designed spaces.
Why Choose Glass for a Kitchen Splashback?
Glass splashbacks offer a compelling combination of aesthetic appeal and practical performance, making them an ideal choice for modern kitchens:
-
Effortless Maintenance: The smooth, non-porous surface is incredibly easy to wipe clean, resisting grease and stains without the need for harsh scrubbing.
-
Superior Wall Protection: Glass shields your kitchen walls from cooking splashes, steam, and stains, preserving their condition and appearance.
-
Seamless Visuals: Create expansive, uninterrupted surfaces that enhance the sense of space and light, free from the visual clutter of multiple tiles and grout lines.
-
Vibrant Design Potential: Benefit from an extensive palette of colours and high-definition printed designs, allowing for unparalleled customisation.
-
Precision Integration: Splashbacks can be precisely cut to accommodate sockets, switches, and other kitchen features, maintaining a clean and cohesive look.
-
Light Enhancement: Reflective qualities, particularly with mirrored or lighter-toned finishes, can help to brighten and expand the perceived size of your kitchen.
-
Tailored Dimensions: Every splashback is made to measure, ensuring a perfect fit for your unique kitchen dimensions and layout.
Made to Measure
Our bespoke glass splashbacks are meticulously produced to precisely match the dimensions and configuration of your individual kitchen. To achieve this perfect fit, critical details such as exact measurements, cut-out positions for sockets and switches, corner requirements, and other specific features must be accurately established before manufacturing commences.
For kitchens where CreoGlass is managing the installation, our professional site survey plays a vital role. This on-site assessment confirms all manufacturing dimensions and installation prerequisites, ensuring that every aspect of the splashback, from its size to its precise cut-outs, aligns perfectly with your kitchen's realities.
Survey, Manufacture & Installation
The CreoGlass project process is designed for clarity and precision:
-
Enquiry & Consultation: Share photographs of your kitchen, approximate dimensions, plans, or drawings, along with your preferred finish.
-
Initial Quotation: Based on the information you provide, CreoGlass will prepare an initial quotation tailored to your project.
-
Site Survey: For installations managed by CreoGlass, a professional survey establishes exact manufacturing dimensions, cut-out requirements, wall conditions, and necessary installation details.
-
Design Approval: You will confirm the proposed colour, finish, printed artwork, or any other specific design elements.
-
Manufacture: The glass is then precisely manufactured according to the approved specification.
-
Installation: Our experienced installation team will fit your new splashback, adhering to the agreed project scope and ensuring a professional finish.
Choosing the Right Finish
Within the Cityscape collection, the primary finish is the printed design itself. This allows for immense creative expression. When selecting your cityscape:
-
Printed Glass: The artwork, whether it's a detailed photograph of a recognisable skyline, abstract urban patterns, or architectural sketches, can transform the splashback into a powerful design statement. This option is ideal for those looking to inject personality, drama, or a specific theme into their kitchen design.
Colour Matching & Samples
We understand the importance of visual accuracy. While precise colour matching for printed designs can be complex due to the nature of inks and glass substrates, we encourage customers to utilise our sample service. Assessing samples alongside your actual cabinetry, worktop, and within your kitchen's specific lighting conditions is crucial. Colours, reflective qualities, and the overall visual impact can vary significantly under different light sources, helping you make the most informed decision.
Suitability & Technical Considerations
When planning your Cityscape Printed Splashback, consider the following:
-
Hob Proximity: Placement relative to heat sources such as hobs requires careful consideration. Toughened glass is essential, and specific installation arrangements may be necessary to ensure safety and durability. Project-specific suitability will be confirmed during consultation or survey.
-
Socket and Switch Cut-outs: Precise cut-outs can be incorporated to accommodate sockets, switches, and other required fixtures. These details must be technically feasible and confirmed prior to manufacture.
-
Corners and Returns: Complex corner configurations or wrap-around designs can be accommodated, with details finalised during the survey.
-
Wall Condition: The condition and preparation of your walls are important for a secure and stable installation.
-
Existing Worktops and Upstands: The splashback's design and installation must integrate with your existing worktops and any upstands.
-
Extractors and Cabinets: Measurements and positioning must account for extractor hoods and wall cabinets to ensure a seamless fit.
-
Large Panel Sizes: We can accommodate large panel sizes for expansive, uninterrupted visual effects, subject to site access and manufacturing capabilities.
-
Access for Installation: Ensure clear access to the kitchen space for our installation team.
-
LED Applications: If considering integrated LED lighting (available in other collections), this requires early planning and discussion regarding electrical provisions.
Where technical suitability is dependent on the individual project, this will be thoroughly assessed and confirmed during your consultation or site survey.

Are kitchen glass splashbacks made to measure?
Yes, all our bespoke glass splashbacks, including the Cityscape collection, are made precisely to measure for your individual kitchen. This distinguishes them from standard-size DIY products, ensuring a perfect integration with your cabinetry and worktops.
Can glass splashbacks go behind a hob?
Glass splashbacks can be installed behind a hob, provided the correct specification of toughened glass and appropriate installation methods are used. Project-specific suitability and safety requirements must be confirmed before ordering.
Can you cut around sockets?
Absolutely. Socket, switch, and other necessary cut-outs can be precisely incorporated into your glass splashback, provided they are technically feasible and confirmed during the design and survey stages before manufacture.
Do you measure the splashback?
For our professionally installed bespoke projects, yes, CreoGlass conducts a thorough site survey to establish exact manufacturing dimensions and installation requirements.
Can I order a splashback without installation?
Yes, we offer a supply-only or DIY route for customers who can provide accurate measurements and are comfortable with self-installation. Please refer to our dedicated DIY collection for these options.
Can I see samples before ordering?
Yes, we offer a sample service. We highly recommend viewing finishes in your kitchen's actual lighting conditions alongside your cabinetry and worktops to assess their appearance accurately.
Can you match the splashback to my kitchen?
We can guide your selection using references such as cabinet colours, worktop samples, paint codes, or design mood boards. While we aim for the closest visual harmony, exact colour matches cannot always be guaranteed without specific process capabilities.
Can you install full-height glass between the worktop and wall cabinets?
Certainly. Larger and more complex arrangements, including full-height installations, can be considered. The feasibility will depend on the final measurements, site access, glass specification, and the outcomes of the professional survey.
