# Two surfaces. One cohesive kitchen.

Compare countertop and backsplash combinations on your kitchen photo. Explore how stone, tile, and cabinet finishes work together.

**Audience:** For visual exploration from your own references

[Try countertop and backsplash](/try/countertop-and-backsplash/start)

## How it works

Countertop and backsplash, from your own image.

1. **Bring your references** — Upload your kitchen photo and optional countertop and backsplash samples, identifying each material.
2. **Describe the direction** — Assign each reference to its surface. Describe veining, tile orientation, grout, and what should remain unchanged.
3. **Review the concept** — Check surface boundaries, seams, and scale, then inspect real slabs or samples before specifying the materials.

## Example prompt

```
Change only the countertop to warm pale quartz with delicate restrained veining and the backsplash to muted deep green glazed rectangular tiles laid horizontally with thin grout. Preserve the walnut cabinet fronts, brass handles, sink position, faucet, appliances, sockets, walls, floor, camera and original lighting. No other changes.
```

## From reference to concept.

A generated source, its edited result, and a closer look at the same result. Use the comparison above to inspect what changed.

- **Existing surface pairing** — The generated source image used as the edit reference.
- **Stone and green tile concept** — The result of the task-specific edit, using that source image.
- **Stone against glazed tile** — A tightly framed detail from this result, shown at three times the scale of the full view.

## Benefits

- **Bring your references** — Upload your kitchen photo and optional countertop and backsplash samples, identifying each material.
- **Describe the direction** — Assign each reference to its surface. Describe veining, tile orientation, grout, and what should remain unchanged.
- **Review the concept** — Check surface boundaries, seams, and scale, then inspect real slabs or samples before specifying the materials.

## Countertop and backsplash questions

### What should I upload for countertop and backsplash?

Upload your kitchen photo and optional countertop and backsplash samples, identifying each material.

### Will stone veining match the slab I buy?

No. The image can suggest a material character but cannot reproduce a particular slab or fabricate a seam layout. Select the actual slab and review the fabrication drawings separately.

### How should I check the result?

Check surface boundaries, seams, and scale, then inspect real slabs or samples before specifying the materials.

### Can I refine the concept in the same conversation?

Yes. Tell Bob which parts to change and which to retain. Refer back to your original images and review each new concept for unintended changes.

Veining, grout, seams, edges, and material colors are approximate. Heat resistance, durability, slab selection, and fabrication require supplier confirmation.
