25 Bold And Inspiring Red Kitchen Decor Ideas

bold and inspiring red kitchen decor ideas

Red is considered the warmest and most contradictory of the colors considering their psychological meaning. In fact, this fiery hue has more opposing emotional associations than any other color: it can be about love and can be about anger. Let’s stick to more positive vibes and think of love and warmth – this way this color becomes one of the best ones for home decor. Red is a great color for pulling it off in a kitchen and if you hesitate it, let me prove.

Styles And Shades

Red works with any decor style, from minimalist to vintage, and you can create your own mix of styles, too. There are many shades of red to go for, from lighter to dark burgundy ones but more often you’ll see classic and fiery red. Red can be paired with many other colors like white, grey, black, orange, navy, blue, yellow and so on depending on the hue and the impression you want to make. Think carefully how much red you are going to use: it’s a very active and waking up color. You may go for red cabinetry and all the rest done in calmer shades, you may try only lower or only upper cabinets in bold red or even stick to other furniture and appliances, for example, a red fridge and a red table, a red kitchen island and stools and nothing else.
