Brooklyn Beckham's Tiled Backsplash Is Subtle yet Masterfully Intricate – Here's Why Chevron Tiles Are a Style Worth Considering For All Kitchens

Brooklyn Beckham.

No kitchen is complete without a backsplash. Whether it's a traditional wood-panelled style designed to provide architectural charm or a ceramic zeillage style in a vibrant hue, there are plenty of tile backsplash ideas to be inspired by.

While some might ask if tiled backsplashes are still in style, after seeing Brooklyn Beckham's chevron tiles situated above his stove, I'm convinced that nothing beats the quiet luxury of this familiar style. Subtle yet masterfully intricate, Brooklyn's stone tiles bring added depth and sophistication to his cooking area, contrasting with his industrial stainless steel oven.

Admittedly, at first glance, they seem simple, but the beauty of the ceramic tiles in Brooklyn's kitchen is in their detail. As you look closer, the mastery of their design becomes all too clear.

Shop the Look

Timelessly sophisticated as well as functional, Brooklyn's chevron tiles bring visual interest to the center of his space (and ensure any inevitable splashes don't stain the wall). Practical and stylish, kitchen backsplash trends like these are worth considering when redesigning your cooking space.

You can take inspiration from Brooklyn's kitchen through other ways, too, so fear not if a redesign isn't on the cards, these chic picks will help you recreate a luxurious kitchen just like his.

Brooklyn's kitchen backsplash brings enduring sophistication to his cooking space. Laid with delicate chevron tiles, it's neutral but impressively detailed, bringing subtle grandeur that quietly radiates without overwhelming the kitchen's classic design.

Made from marble, the tiles are subtle yet chic, much like the rest of the quietly luxurious kitchen. Framing the room's focal point, the designated cooking area is given more presence within the space, framed by the intricately panelled tiles.

A neutral kitchen layered with organic textures like wooden beams and artisanal decor, the tiles tie in with the room's natural serenity, bringing warmth and a homely feel, still in keeping with the minimal design. They're not instantly noticeable, but that's what makes them so clever. As you approach the stove, the intricacy of the backsplash reveals itself, gently framing and uplifting an otherwise empty wall.

Plus, I am not alone in my observations. 'What Brooklyn Beckham has mastered here is the 'high-low' textural balance that defines modern luxury,' adds Hebe Hatton, the head of interiors at Homes & Gardens.

'By pairing a cold, industrial stainless steel range with the organic, rhythmic pattern of stone chevron tiles, he softens the kitchen's utilitarian edges. It’s a masterclass in using geometry to create a focal point without shouting; the chevron pattern draws the eye upward, making the ceiling feel higher, and the cooking station feel like a curated piece of art rather than just a workspace.'

Brooklyn's tiled backsplash is subtle yet detailed. Layered with marble chevron tiles, from afar it blends into the background, but as you approach, the intricacy of the design unfolds, gently framing the cooking area. I'm utterly inspired.
