and the danger of using stock sites.
As part of our service we offer mock ups of your kitchen, so you can see what a chosen image might look like. Send us a photo of your kitchen splashback area and we’ll photoshop different images into it.
To get different splashback ideas especially when you don’t know what you might like as a splashback image, it is often helpful to look at various stock sites such as dreamstime or Adobe stock.
Not all stock images are suitable for kitchen splashbacks
Although this image might look fantastic as a mock up, the image on the stock site is actually too small to be used as a splashback.
This splash back would be about 2 meters in length and the image will need to be enlarged over 600% to reach the size required. The resolution would be horrible and the quality just not up to standard.
This one is my own images and has been made up of 8 images stitched together. It won’t need to be enlarged at all. We are building a library of images suitable for large splashbacks, wall art and also wallpaper.
We prefer to work with our own images or with the photographers we recommend so that we know we are getting the best quality images for our splashbacks.
We can’t have photos of every single type of splash back image people ask for, and that’s where stock sites can be useful.
Stock images can work for smaller splashbacks.
This is a splashback we worked on recently and with a few tweaks to option #4 we were able to buy the license and create a beautiful splashback .
