Kitchen with Vibrant Cabinets 

Before remodeling, almost everything about this kitchen was white: walls, trim, cabinets, and countertops. Two coats of red paint followed by a black glaze and varnish coat made the kitchen cabinets more interesting, as did installing new leaded-glass doors .

Italian Red Kitchen 

The couple who remodeled this kitchen once lived in Italy, and they wanted to bring the rich red they saw there into their American kitchen. The wall color creates a strong backdrop for the natural-maple cabinetry, black granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances .

Rustic Red Kitchen

The lively red hue on the base of the 9-foot-long island and the tall pantry was a look these homeowners found in a designer showroom. The Colorado Rockies inspired the use of pine cabinetry and reclaimed barnwood flooring. Together, the red, pine, and barnwood present a comfortable and homey feeling .

Kitchen with Farmhouse Style

The barnlike roominess of this farmhouse-style kitchen called for bold design strokes, beginning with the color palette. Barn red plays a big part, seen here on the furniture-look cabinetry with a well-worn finish, complemented by soft yellow on the walls and the black-based island .

Kitchen with Red and Yellow Accents 

Racy red powers this remodeled kitchen, which combines a '50s industrial look with sleek contemporary finishes. The upper cabinets were outfitted with doors made of stainless steel and industrial glass (note the embedded wire). The rug and chair fabric pick up on the red inside cabinets and on the lower cabinet faces .

Red Kitchen Cabinets

Age-old colors beautifully backdate this new country home's kitchen. The red cabinets work with the black countertop, farmhouse sink and backsplash, and white pine table. The table was stained to create a timeworn, sun-faded finish .

Kitchen Design Details 

Keeping boring at bay was an important goal in this kitchen makeover, and the deep red walls are one of the details that made it possible. A fleck of red shows up in the honed granite countertops, which the wall color accentuates .

Kitchen with Green and Red Accents 

The owner of this old stone house had definite ideas about decorating her new kitchen to match the rest of the house. She aged the new cabinets with a coat of green paint topped with a red-crackled finish, then distressed the finish with sandpaper before topping it off with a black glaze and a coat of urethane .

Kitchen with Garnet Range 

A garnet-red range creates an instant pop of color in this historic home. The backsplash above the range is decorated with stained-glass tile that echoes the range. Together, they define a hot color palette that dramatizes the cooking station .
