Red is a surprisingly versatile color which can blend nicely with a variety of styles. Red kitchen cabinets are the way to go if you’re serious about adding color to this space. A nice compromise is to have red cabinets for the lower section of the kitchen and white or neutral-colored ones for the upper section to avoid overwhelming the decor with too much color. Check out opulentcottage to see how this would look like in a cozy farmhouse-style kitchen.

Because red is such a powerful color, using it in large doses can become overwhelming so it’s important to balance out the red with neutrals. Black and white are always good options so consider a combination of red cabinets, white walls and black countertops.

On the other hand, using red in small doses is a great strategy as well. Red can be the accent color for the kitchen and can look beautiful in combination with natural wood, white, beige and other such options. This kitchen is a perfect example. It has a red island with a matching range hood while everything else is more on the neutral side without being too simple.
