Tiles should stop at a natural stopping point, such as where the upper cabinets begin or at the end of a countertop. This creates a clean, defined look and makes the kitchen more cohesive. For a backsplash, typically stop the tiles just below the upper cabinets. End your tiling where visual elements naturally converge for best results.
