Hakatai has been importing and distributing glass mosaic tile since 1997. It’s great in mesh backed sheets for the wall between the countertop and the bottom of wall cabinets or a vent hood. No need for a backsplash – the whole wall *is* the backsplash.

It’s a nice color wash, plus a place to introduce patterns. Make your own gradients and blends right on the Hakatai website.

Buy direct from Hakatai online, from a dealer like Common Ground Green Building Center in Durham (Hi Paul & Dawn!), or in some cases from an individual kitchen designer like Eco-modernism.

Speaking of Common Ground, they carry a lot of green building supplies, including flooring, paints & stains, and countertop options. And they have a background in construction so they know what works and are willing to share. Highly recommended.
